    I encountered a swarm of cockroaches around the fridge, which wasn't ideal. The rooms felt quite old and in dire need of refurbishment, especially lacking air conditioning during a heatwave. The bathroom, while tidy, had an unpleasant odor that lingered. It all left me wishing for a bit more upkeep and care.

    freshly renovated room
    central location
    missing bathroom plug
    persistent buzzing sound

    The freshly renovated Garden View Queen Bed was a delight! Sipping on a morning cuppa while enjoying the fresh air was simply divine. Being just a hop, skip, and jump away from delicious spots like the Three Sisters Cafe made our culinary adventure a breeze.

    A cheeky critique, no plug in the bathroom sink made washing dishes a hassle, and we had to jam a wet hand towel in. That persistent buzzing sound all night? Not ideal.

    dragging curtains
    small bathroom

    my stay at Echo point was so disappointing. the curtains dragged on the floor and the bathroom was shockingly tiny—definitley not 5-star quality. when I pointed these issues out, I expected an upgrade or at least a complimentary breakfast, but no special treatment. so sad! almost contemplated a good review, but just couldn’t!

    great location
    comfortable bed
    helpful staff
    bathroom improvements
    dated decor

    The location was perfect for visiting the Three Sisters, just a short walk away. Our room was clean and well-furnished with a comfortable bed, electric blankets, and a refrigerator. The staff were helpful, and we enjoyed the lovely continental breakfast each morning.

    The bathroom could use some improvements.

    Where it excels and where it fails

    The friendly staff made our stay enjoyable! We loved how close it was to Echo Point, making walks easy and scenic.

    The rooms felt a bit dated, lacking modern amenities like air conditioning, particularly frustrating during the warm weather.

    excellent location
    dated furnishings
    decor need update
    worn aesthetics

    The location offers easy access to major hiking trails, ensuring an adventurous stay. Staff friendliness stands out, adding a welcoming touch to the experience. the furnishings are dated and show signs of wear, needing an update to improve aesthetics and comfort. While the overall cleanliness is maintained, the decor feels outdated, setting a nostalgic but somewhat lackluster mood. A hot breakfast with Korean dishes would enhance the dining experience.

    freshly renovated bathroom

    It was just an ideal choice for a quick break in Katoomba with all in all brilliant value for money. The freshly renovated bathroom was a pleasant surprise, making my stay more comfortable than expected. Consider walking to nearby spots instead of driving for a more relaxing experience.

    cheerful staff
    room refresh
    basic maintenance

    The prime location made exploring the Blue Mountains effortless, just a brief stroll from the stunning lookout. The cheerful staff were a highlight, providing helpful local tips, though the room could definitely benefit from a refresh and some basic maintenance here and there.
