Liked: Cleanliness
We stayed one night. The building definitely possesses an old world charm, but it was pricey given the limited amenities (old TV, no windows you could see through, ancient hairdryer). Staff were nice enough but there were a lot of instructions and rules straight off the bat. Left a bad taste in my mouth. Was not a fan of the constant posted warnings that persons who weren't registered guests would be expelled if found in the corridors. It's a hotel, not a prison! Could not find the 'arcades' room. 'Billiards room' had one pool table and a long line. Unimpressed.

Katoomba itself is a time warp and this hotel is so quirky and so different and a great experience . It is unique . On its own . After cookie cutter sameness of so many modern hotels this place stands out
