Guest Reviews

• Dominique (10/5): Very comfortable - Host was very kind and helped us through a rough time for our family ( having my daughter and grandson at John Hunter )
• Elizabeth (8/5): - Friendly staff. Great location. Comfortable bed. B&B continental breakfast great variety of choices. N/A
• Faye (10/5): Needed to attend john Hunter hospital perfect location. - In walking distance to john Hunter hospital.There was plenty of choice for breakfast. Staff could not do enough for you. Nothing
• Sharon (9/5): We would definitely stay here again. - The breakfast had a good selection and plenty of it. The bed was very comfortable and the room very clean and tidy. It was great to have a choice on the tv as well. Being just across the road from the hospital made it very convenient and I was able to walk to visit my husband.
• Sara (8/5): Went therefore hospital visit - Staff were friendly and very helpful. Walking distance to the hospital. Ensuite shower was small if somebody had a walker, it would be difficult for them to get in.
• Bernadette (8/5): - Location was perfect for hospital admission. I was admitted & my husband was able to walk to hospital each day, no need to use car. Room very quiet. Facilities great. Well stocked kitchen. Very clean. Good security. Met by Jacob and shown around on arrival. Great value. Nothing
• Joanne (8/5): Very good - Near hospital The bed a little uncomfortable
• Aurélie (9/5): Highly recommend! - The kitchen is possible to use for the guests and it is well furnished, breakfast available, we got the room by the garden which was quiet, friendly and accommodating staff, very quick to reply The location isn’t ideal if you do not have a car
• Roslyn (9/5): - Location and cleanliness
• Paula (10/5): It was fantastic - It was handy to the hospital Nothing
• Vanessa (8/5): Location was a short drive to the event I was attending on Saturday & Sunday in Minmi. - The Owner generously supplied basic food for breakfast. However, I have allergies and I was not able to eat any of the food on offer. The Owner is a very friendly person and was around most of the time to ask questions. I liked that each room had its own keypad lock, made leaving items secure. There was a lovely Indian restaurant within 5 mins driving. That ironing service was advertised, but it was not available, as we needed to iron a linen dress. Perhaps the Owner could consider having an iron & ironing board for general use, in a location that is accessible by those staying at this location.
• Jennifer (10/5): -
• John (8/5): It was ok I wouldn’t stay again hard to get to and find. - It was ok Bathroom was a bit worrying as curtains didn’t close
• Suwannee (8/5): Nearby hospital stay - Location- close to hospital. Cleanliness and friendly management. Limited parking space.
• Matias ezequiel (10/5): Very good - Honestly, it’s a very good place. The atmosphere is quiet and clean, and the owner is very friendly and attentive. The bed is quite comfortable, maybe a bit too soft, but still fine. There’s a lovely kitchen with everything you need to cook, and everything is kept very clean. Overall, highly recommended if you’re looking for a quiet and clean place.
• Didi (6/5): Great facilities but noisy - Location close to hospital and welcoming staff The bedroom i was in was very noisy. In particular the bathroom of the next room was soo loud it felt like the shower was on my room
• Lisa (10/5): -
• Nancy (8/5): the caretaker Jacob was so helpful and was really lovely .. was so very helpful and the place was sp - The convenience of being able to walk to and from the hospital The entry point and no signs to guide you on an extremely busy highway. The traffic noise at night was an issue. I would not stop there in summer as the air con is turned off at 9.30 parking was very limited
• Janine (7/5): - Location was great N/A
• Marcel (9/5): Well worth it, I would come again, no question! - The host as well as his daughter are very good and helpful people, thanks! Very clean and well looked after place. Parking lot in front of the house. Since everything is digital today, you dont get a key anymore. So you have to memorize two codes for front and roomdoor. If you travel frequently, every couple of days you have to learn new keys. If you have to go out for a pee in the middle of the night, you rather should know your key!

• Leigh (8/5): Relaxing - On line Value for money. Nice breakfast

• Tim (9/5): Wonderful. - Fully equipped kitchen for guest use. So much provided! Eggs, bread, cereals spreads, milk and juice, tea and coffee..breakfast brilliant.
• Hooman (7/5): Mixed review - would not book the external room - I needed a place to stay in Newcastle at short notice and John Hunter B&B was one of the few places available. I had a choice of a room with a shared bathroom or one with an ensuite (my room was accessible from outside of the house with its own entrance. The reviews are mostly positive however my experience was not a great one. The good news Private separate entrance. Comfortable bed. Clean sheets and towels Newish clean bathroom Air-conditioner worked The interior of the house was clean and tidy (compared to the room I was in) Breakfast was adequate (although it would not qualify as a typical B&B where a cooked breakfast is typically provided) The bad news The room is falling apart and needs a good makeover The furniture is old (looked mostly second hand) The room is very small and is filled with unuseable items, a big table taking up room with only 1 chair, a massive fridge that's switched off, nowhere to place your clothes. Can't imagine how two people would navigate moving around the room. Despite the double glazing the room is fairly noisy as it is facing a major highway. Clearly the location is very convenient for people who wish to stay close to the hospital. I would not be using this venue again and certainly recommend that only rooms within the main house be booked and the external room is avoided.
• Robyn (5/5): Passable -
• Nicole (5/5): Passable - close to hospital old building
• Christine (9/5): Superb -
• Sandy (8/5): Very easy - Breakfast was great Somewhere to hang towels in room
• Raul (1/5): Bad - Nothing Not worth it...with that price 224 you can stay in 5 star hotel with breakfast. B & B they prepare your breakfast not make your own.
