- Anthony (8/5): -
- Susan E (10/5): Room cosy food excellent with open fire in restaurant. - Room was very cosy and good value. Dinner in the hotel was excellent the seafood chowder was sensational. Staff are wonderful. We were very impressed with this booking. Nothing
- Lesley (8/5): Very pleasant. - Love the restaurant, so convenient & fabulous menu. The stairs to rooms. Difficult for an older person to haul a bag up or down. The bathrooms are tight. Also need a good scrub, more than a cleaner can do. It would be nice to find a bottle of water in the fridge. The tap water smelled chlorine & horrible. I had to go searching & the bar staff gave me a bottle.
- Cynthia (5/5): -
- Brian (5/5): - Location was excellent, easy walkimnhg distance to town, and 2 very pleasant bush walks on doorstep. Rooms very tired.
- Caroline (6/5): Had a great night so overall a good experience - Easy walk into town. The restaurant was amazing with a great food selection and friendly staff. Bathroom window was not able to be completely closed. Not a big deal but it could be for those that feel the cold.

- fe3e31dfd9a270701143d686c0ccca98 (5/5): The service was really good, staff were kind and helpful. - The customer service and restaurant/bar it was attached to. The room was very dated, and while the bathroom was probably cleaned properly, it was very old and consequently looked dirty. Plus, carting heavy luggage up the wooden outdoor stairs wasn’t expected.

- 10c6d7c8023872a695246ec1d2eec87a (8/5): Overall happy - Had a lovely meal in the restaurant. It was close to the wedding activities over the weekend Would have liked a toaster in the room

- Ben (10/5): Ben Australia - Staff were very friendly and helpful. Very handy with a restaurant and bar on the premises with great meals. I extended my stay.
- Robert (9/5): Comfortable room and good food and drink - The restaurant was good. Not fancy but decent size room. Quiet. Difficult to find when driving in from the north end of town. Very confusing junction of several roads leads to town.
- Francis (7/5): -
- Kerry (8/5): - Weren't there long but the room was big and comfortable beds.
- David (6/5): -
- Steve (10/5): - Central location, excellent menu and food, nice cold beer, very helpful staff who went out of their way for us. Mattress in room 32 was uncomfortable due, I believe, to tired coil springs. We woke up with slightly sore backs. Each morning
- Jane (4/5): Disappointed - Location was good and it had the off street parking. Great restaurant adjoining the hotel. Mouldy smell upon entering, very dark dingy room, double bed very small.
- shore (10/5): - Location Na
- Isabel (7/5): Cómodo y bien localizado - Buena localización Al lado del pub y las instalaciones un poco viejas
- Clare (6/5): -
- Sally (8/5): Good comfortable accommodation. - Good bed. Didn't use any of the facilities as I was only there for 4 hours. Nothing

- Sabine (8/5): -
- Vicki (9/5): Great location, great price, friendly staff, nice food and clean room. - It was a great location with an excellent restaurant. Very clean and staff were very friendly. Very small room and could hear people next door. The single bed light switch was too far away from the bed.
- Shirlee (9/5): - Clean, great shower pressure Comfortable beds Lovely staff Great meals Nothing
- Chris (2/5): - Room was great with everything expected The room was very noisy, a constant roar all night. I think it was the HRV system. Kept the wife awake most of the night.
- Jochen (10/5): - Die unmittelbare Nähe zum Restaurant, in dem man sehr gut essen kann. (Innen- und Außenbereich vorhanden). Zentral mit Einkaufs-und Frühstücksmöglichkeiten (Pete & Mary‘s Eatery ist sehr zu empfehlen)
- Susanne (9/5): We enjoyed our short stay. The restaurant food and staff were the highlights. Thank you! - The restaurant food was amazing - delicious! The restaurant staff were also great - very friendly with great service!
- Inderpal (6/5): Could have been better - Staff at the reception not friendly. We booked a year in advance but were offered a road facing room! The had a sloping roof so not ideal for a taller person. Staff said that they were fully booked. When we checked online for the same night and searched for 3 rooms,there was availability! Single pane windows so no effective in keeping sound out. Also no privacy curtains on windows of both bedroom and bathroom even though they face the road. We had planned to eat at the onsite restaurant but because of the above chose to eat elsewhere. Glad we were staying only for one night.
- Peter (6/5): - It was in the centre of town and their hotel bar is very inviting. Parking behind hotel handy. Room was tired looking.
- Martyn (4/5): Adequate, but not good value for money - All night there was light coming in from the hallway from a gap around the door which kept me awake for most of the night. You should consider that people need complete darkness when sleeping
- Gui Jin Janice (8/5): Great for the value and short stay - It's in central Warkworth, very convenient to everything. Very quiet night sleep Some places in bathroom not cleaned properly. Mattress a little soft for our liking
- Graeme (8/5): -
- Mark (8/5): - Fine for a stopover Shower curtain, a pet hate of mine
- Steph (8/5): - Location was lovely. Close to walking tracks, easy to.get to CBD and supermarket without requiring a car. Food at the restaurant was superb. The accommodation was as described. Although dated it was clean and comfortable, and great value for.money.

- Fiona (8/5): -
- Bernhard (7/5): -
- Andrew (9/5): Great stop over. - We stayed enroute to Bay of Islands for one night. Easy to book in and room was good. Bar was great and food was excellent and great value. Would 100% stay again.
- Norman (7/5): Nice stop over location when travelling north - Good quiet location, staff were very helpful. Bed was quite uncomfortable and room was very small. However for the value of money that was paid that was understandable.

- pauline (8/5): -
- Ulrich (6/5): Keine Klimaanlage! - Einfaches und sauberes Hotelzimmer direkt an einer viel befahrenden Straße ohne Klimaanlage! Hatte ein Zimmer im Erdgeschoss bestätigt bekommen, aber es war dann unter dem Dach. Der Mann an der Rezeption war auch nicht bereit bei den Koffer zu helfen. Sehr schlechte und warme Luft im Zimmer. Die angeblichen Einzelraum Klimaanlagen sind Ventilatoren ohne richtige Wirkung. Nachts waren wir gezwungen bei geöffnetem Fenster zu schlafen. Durch den Autoverkehr war an Schlaf nicht zu denken. Um 4:30 wurde dann auch noch die Straße gereinigt. Wir werden hier nicht wieder übernachten!
- Pamela (8/5): -
- Martin (8/5): - Locaton was fantastic
