Guest Reviews

• Lisa (8/5): -
• Dang (10/5): Try the Burger that is very delicious - Very delicious food I love everything
• Forsyth (9/5): - The bed The TV No hot water
• Peter (8/5): -
• Mark (8/5): The staff and management were lovely, friendly and helpful. - Room was comfortable, clean and spacious, shops and EV charger nearby, a good restaurant on site. Much better than many places we have stayed in our (so far) nine-week tour of Austral The drinks selection in the restaurant was small and did not have the drink I wanted. Not much of a problem really!
• Stephen (7/5): All in all happy with our stay. - Location was good, room was acceptable for what we needed, Easy to deal with. Parking was a bit random, room ventilation needs improving, hot water slow to come in.
• Li (10/5): -
• William (8/5): - Location
• Okoh (10/5): -
• 901rakeshl (10/5): Simply awesome - The reception lady, was super helpful and made me feel welcomed.
• Anita (1/5): -
• TonyKirsten (10/5): Excellent motel - Always stay here as I regularly travel through Katherine for work. The Katherine Motel seems to add improvements each time I stay. This time the room had a microwave and crockery and cutlery so meals were sorted. Lovely clean rooms, comfortable beds, quiet, and a sparkling pool to cool off in at the end of a dusty driving day. They make a mean latte in the morning too!
• Vanessa (10/5): - So clean. Lovely room. Great shower. Pool looked very nice! Great service. Friendly, kind. Welcoming and professional
• James (8/5): -
• Delene (10/5): -

• marysD6667DA (10/5): Katherine Motel - We were stranded in Katherine due to the aftermath of recent flooding. We were able to get a room at the last minute at the Katherine Motel. Finn, at the motel, was so helpful and kind to us. The room was comfortable and clean - it was a relief to sleep in a comfy bed
• Javier (7/5): - Nuestro bus se retrasó y fueron muy comprensivos, no nos cobraron por llegar fuera de horas y nos dieron una habitación algo más grande para poder descansar mejor. No vimos explicado de forma clara de antemano que hay un cobro por llegar fuera de horas de recepción. No pudimos dejar nuestras maletas en recepción una vez hecho el check out.
• Charlotte (10/5): -
• 100kishanb (10/5): Great Central Spot for Families - Excellent stay during our family trip in February. The motel is in a perfect central location, close to shops and cafes, making it easy to manage with a toddler. Our room felt recently renovated and was very comfortable. We’ll definitely be back!"
• vanessacK7270HN (8/5): A great hotel at Katherine - Upgrade to a deluxe room because the standard rooms back onto the local pub. Very spacious room, newly renovated and very clean. Thin walls though, we could hear the people next door talking at night.
• Matt (8/5): Good room, a bit pricey. - Updated and tidy room. No food offering.
• Julie (10/5): - Comfy bed & pillows Great staff Cafe does not offer meals Limited toiletries
• praveen683 (10/5): Katherine Motel - Best place to stay in Katherine - Had a wonderful day stay at Katherine Motel. The rooms were excellent—clean, comfortable, and very well maintained. The location is beautiful and peaceful, making it a perfect place to relax and unwind. Everything was smooth and hassle-free. Highly recommend this motel for anyone visiting Katherine, even for a short stay!
• sood2026 (10/5): Most relaxed stay in Katherine - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fantastic Stay at Katherine Motel I stayed at Katherine Motel during a work trip in mid‑January and was genuinely impressed. The location is convenient yet peaceful, and the pool was huge & spotless, perfect after a long day. The staff and owner were incredibly welcoming and attentive, which made me feel completely safe and comfortable while travelling alone. My room was spacious, clean, and well‑maintained, giving me a great place to unwind. The food was another highlight, every meal was delicious and exceeded expectations. Katherine Motel delivered on every level. I’ll definitely be back on my next trip, and this time with family 💜

• Michelle (4/5): Hopefully never again - Our dog could stay Stay overnight in Katherine on our way to Adelaide. Booked through Bookings.com, and when I arrived I still had to pay $50 for the dog. The bed was like sleeping on a cement block, pillow was hard, ants all through the bathroom. Paid $200 for overnight, advertised on Bookings as having a restaurant only to find out it was closed for Dec/Jan Comparing this accommodation to Alice Springs, Alice Springs a lot cheaper, cleaner.
• ciarabU716OL (10/5): Comfortable, clean and quiet with great amenities and awesome owners - We’ve been using this hotel room for work purposes and couldn’t be happier. The owners are truly amazing—kind, welcoming, and extremely accommodating. The room is comfortable, quiet, and very clean, which makes it perfect for both work and rest. The amenities are great, and the large TV is a nice bonus. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a stress-free, comfortable stay.
• Ivor (10/5): Great experience - Friendly and close to shops N/A
• Guest (9/5): -
• ivorj2026 (10/5): Stayed here 5 years ago and was great hence my return - Great place. Travelling with pets so this place is my first choice. If you have pets this place needs to be your first choice.
• Q3801IUlindseyw (10/5): Lovely, beautiful, calm - At arrival we were welcomed with open arms..very clean very kind service and an excellent team able to assist you when in need. Lovely room... close proximity to the shopping centre and readily available service for you. I will definitely stay here again and again

• gillianhE6883LZ (10/5): Very comfortable and convenient for all you need. - Very comfortable staying a very convenient location. Close to Greyhound bus stop and next to Woolies/shopping centre. Pool was very welcome in the heat.
• Nathan (10/5): -
• Julie (10/5): Home away from Home - Amazing staff .. They looked after my two children like they were their own when travelling via bus across the country from Queensland to WA. I can not express enough how grateful I am for what they did out of pure kindness for us all. Thank you Katherine Motel 😘
• James (8/5): Nice place, never judge a book by its cover!!! - The staff was great, and the room was clean and tidy. However, the front facade could use some improvement as it looks a little intimidating upon arrival. First impressions are important, but behind the barbed wire security camera lies a little oasis. All good
• sopaca (6/5): Clean, central basic motel rooms - We were struggling to find a hotel in Katherine as there were a lot of negative comments on social media about the town. We choose the Katherine Motel as it was near Woolworths (for buying food) and scored well on cleanliness and security for the car. The latter was quite a let down as the gate didn't seem to get closed until very late at night and there was no way to secure our car which made us anxious. There was a sign on the gate asking guests to close it but they didn't. The lady who checked us in and out was very friendly. We did go to Woolworths but it was a bit of an anxious walk around the block as there were large groups of people sitting around drinking and staring at us. It was very unnerving. We wanted to buy a bottle of wine from the liquor store next to Woolworths and had to show our id to two police officers outside to be allowed in. This was in addition to having to show our id when making the purchase which was the case the three times we bought alcohol from a store in Northern Territory and I believe is a law. We didn't feel safe to venture into town in the dark for dinner so ate our Woolworths purchases in the room. It was our least favourite stay in our three week trip in Northern Territory but, to be fair, we did stay in some rather luxurious accomodation for some of the trip so this compared badly. The room was clean and the bed good. The wifi wasn't very reliable. The walls were the same as outside - white painted brick so had a 1950s utilitarian feel to them. The lighting was harsh but we found this a lot in Australia. I'm afraid we wouldn't choose to stay here again simply as we didn't feel overly secure. The window in our room showed the entire room. We took all of our belongings with us during the day as we didn't feel it safe to leave them visible in the room after all the warnings we'd had about not leaving things visible in our car. We did this in case the maid pulled the blind upo when servicing the room but actually there wasn't a maid so we needn't have worried! In fact, on the second morning we got braver and walked a few minutes to a cafe for breakfast. Two young people walking in front of us tried the handle of every single parked car they passed. We'd been warmed about this type of thing but it was shocking to witness. I feel bad for the good and law abiding people of Katherine (and Tennant Creek and Alice Springs) as it seems they have a real crime problem on their hands.
• Val (5/5): Clean room but didn't like the location as it was a bit too lively in the streets outside, - The friendly lady who checked us in and out The room was clean and had a fridge and freezer unit The parking didn't feel secure as the gate was left open mostly and we couldn't work out how to secure it locked The area - we walked around the block to buy food at Woolworths and the area didn't feel safe. Lots of groups of people stood and sat around drinking and staring at us The room was clean but very basic and felt like a US motel in the 1960s. Walls inside and out were white painted brick.
• Bertrand (8/5): -
• Lauren (10/5): -
• Tracy (6/5): - Staff were friendly & helpful. Room was clean & good size. Pool was very good. There was quite a bit of noise overnight.
• Chloe (7/5): - Air con rattled like a freight train. Otherwise good value for money.
• Dean (8/5): - Comfortable Bed and Shower. 1 PowerPoint ?Which was used for kettle.Very pricey ,was charged $80 extra for our 2 small dogs.Previous motel cabins we stayed at only charged $20 extra for dogs .That was for two night stay. $80 is a bit steep.
• Daniels (8/5): -
• Robin (9/5): Relaxed and friendly. - Remarkably quiet despite its central location. Clean and friendly.
• Margaret (10/5): - Mm
• Dinha (8/5): -
• Holden (6/5): -
• John (8/5): -
• Clare (8/5): - Friendly staff, food location, secure.
• Vera (10/5): Make this your choice for your stay in Katherine! - Rooms are very clean and newly renovated. Right in the center of town which is handy, and also felt quite safe. There is a cafe at the motel also a bonus - great coffee. There is also a nice pool! If I am ever back in Katherine, this is will be my no.1 choice! :) No fault of the motel, the power in Katherine went out for several hours on one day.
• Jane (8/5): - Central Clean, large rooms Nice decor in rooms
• Patricia (8/5): - Nice stay
• Lu (7/5): - The Katherine Motel is conveniently located a short walk from the Greyhound bus stop and a supermarket, pharmacy, and bakery. The room was very spacious, clean, and comfortable, complete with a smart tv (you can access Netflix, YouTube etc.) and cutlery and crockery, fridge and kettle. Theres also plenty of parking, laundry facilities and an enclosed private pool for guests. Unfortunately, the attached coffee shop was closed when I stayed. The price was high, especially given that the restaurant/coffee shop was unavailable. Also, there was no one at reception on my arrival- the cleaner had to call someone to check me in because nobody answered the number posted at the main entrance. It was my choice to pay, but I was also charged quite a lot for a late check out despite the property being virtually empty and leaving by 3pm.
• Alannah (8/5): -
• Vicki (8/5): - Giant bed and huge TV were novelties for me. But I had trouble at first working out the shower tap, then having to step over the bath to use it (older person).
• Michael (3/5): Basic .. will not stay there again. - Not a great deal .. very few amenities .. no bed lamps or anything convenient. Rooms back on to a super market and the onto the local bottle disposal bank so woken at 7am with people filling te bottle bank and barking dogs.
• David (9/5): Most enjoyable and would recomend for accom in Kathrine - Central location - big room - great bed No issues
• Shona (8/5): -
• TomziPl (10/5): -
• Andy M (9/5): A great place to stay for facilities and convenience. - Used the motel to travel around the Katherine area and visit the gorge. A great stay with good facilities in the room and around the motel. Even used the swimming pool, which was good for swimming and and resting. Conveniently located to get to most places in Katherine and the sights in the area. Very helpful staff. Good cafe in the hotel but lacked any atmosphere
• Karen (7/5): -
• Sidney (2/5): -
• Miyuki (8/5): - The owner was nice and friendly. The room was nice and cozy!
• Noleen (10/5): -
• Jane (9/5): - Clean, newly renovated, decent shower, good mattress, friendly manager Nothing
• Simon (8/5): Central location and quiet - Clean and well run motel
• Steven (10/5): - While this is close to town it felt v safe and was quiet in the ‘back rooms’. It was roomy, had v good wifi, coffee, service from very pleasant staff. Clearly this place has gone to big effort to upgrade itself and its appearance. All kitchen appliances as needed were there and in good condition. We are staying there again in 2 weeks.
• Supun (9/5): Superb -
• Karenknx (8/5): Slept well as great bed and will stay again - Location was easy to find and staff very helpful and considerate Had no exhaust fan in bathroom and unable to open the bathroom window
• Peter (10/5): Very comfortable and very conviently located. - The Katherine Motel is well positioned in town, it had all the amenities that you require and it was very clean & staff were amazing especially P K who went out of his way to make us feel welcomed. The big size TV and the efficient cooling unit made our stay very enjoyable and comfortable. When staying in the Town of Kathrine this Motel is not only well priced but a must to stay at. Nothing
• Jack (10/5): Exceptional -
• Bill (7/5): Good -
• 839timl (10/5): Great people. Basic motel but it’s all you need. - Short notice. No problem Two cars and a trailer. No problem Check in. No problem. Everything alright sir. Sure is.

• O'neile (9/5): Superb -
• Stokes (8/5): A convenient place on the way north. - We had a quiet room with parking near by. The supermarket was very close by. Staff were friendly and helpful and the motel was well placed for visiting the sights we wanted to see. There was a gate that was closed at night but could be opened by using the room key. Nothing.
• Ravi (7/5): Good and convenient - Had stayed five yrs earlier, but disappointed that they showed no loyalty to a returnee Their decision to jack up prices on day of festival, completely unacceptable price gouging
• Kirsty (7/5): Convenient but a basic three star at best so expensive for what it was at nearly $200 per night - Location, laundry, table and chairs. Price is very high given it is rundown.
• Andrew (10/5): - Safe and comfortable
• Paul (10/5): Exceptional - Neat and clean room. Good hot water. Beds comfortable.. Carpark gated. Parking a bit hectic as we were in a side room but otherwise not a big issie.
