We have stayed in several B and Bs in the blue Mountains and were disappointed with this one. It looks charming from the outside but lacking on the inside. Smell is an important sense when you walk into somewhere. Scented candles/ oil burners would be an idea. Our room was cold upon arrival and we had to work out how... More

Paid 2 nights and had to leave early for an emergency at home. In a way it was a merciful release from the worst (by far) accommodation we've experienced in many stays in the Katoomba area. It was no surprise that the hotel didn't even hint at any consideration. The threat of a $580 charge if you accidentally fall foul... More

Forget about a romantic B&B. On the outside it looks promising. Once you walk in the door (at 2pm) you are overwhelmed with the smells of Asian cooking. The room looked OK on the surface but cobwebs around heater indicated less than immaculate cleaning. Notices threatening huge ($300) charges to your credit card if you left the bathroom door open...

Booked on line two nights before hand - very easy - they followed up on the arriving evening with helpful instructions for the key location as we arrived late around 10pm. It would have been great to have motion sensor lighting in the driveway toward the veranda as it was dark and difficult to see our way up the steps.... More

We booked in to stay on the hottest day on record. There was no airconditioning in the room but ,to our surprise,the room(no 7),which was downstairs was pleasantly cool and surrounded by a lovely bushy garden which also helped. Keeping the bathroom door closed while showering really wasnt a problem.Yes the TV was small but who wants to watch TV... More

We had already booked when I read the review on this guesthouse here. It got me scared, but we decided to go for it anyway. And we really were not disappointed at all! The room, bathroom, sheets, towels, basically everything was perfectly clean, no complaint there . Breakfast was nice, tv on the small side but it's bigger than an... More

Unfortunately I booked this before reading the Tripadvisor reviews. The staff though were very friendly (no sign of being grumpy as per other reviews). We booked the family room which had 1 double & 3 singles, 2 singles being in a separate room. That was great as we could put our son to bed with the door shut, whilst we... More

Booked the night before (was spontaneous) and although it was a Saturday evening we were glad we secured this place without any fuss. I'd rate it no more than 2.5 to 3 star yet with some TLC and personal touches this place could do far better (just missed that warm cosy country feel) Positive point was that it was spotlessly...

The location was great, just 5 minutes walk from Echo Point lookout. The exterior and gardens looked true to a past era, the bedrooms and lounges were well fitted out. Paintwork, breakfast dining and general cleaning needed updating and a more personal approach. Our bathroom had a notice that the door needed to be closed when showering so as to... More
