A comfortable motel
We have stayed here a number of times and always been happy. It is owned by a mining company and some of its workers stay here between shifts. So they are doing a lot of sleeping. It's a quiet place to stay. It has all the usual motel room amenities. The rooms are larger than usual. There is also a bar and restaurant onsite. It is a bit too far to walk into the CBD (Hannan St).

Meals were lovely but due to being a "miners rest" very big. Breakfast served at a different motel was a bit strange. Would have no problem staying there again

The carpenters opinion
All in all a good experience. There were 2 things worth mentioning. 1.Overhead cupboard needs to be moved closer to TV as it’s in a bad place where we banged our heads when we went into the fridge and then stood up again. 2.Bedhead shelf prevents any kind of comfort when sitting up in bed.

As the name suggests, there were plenty of mine workers who left early for work ... otherwise, the experience was great. The room was adequate, the reception staff was outstanding, the restaurant was fabulous and the drinks were refreshing.

A nice motel in Kalgoorlie.
We enjoy staying here. This was our fourth time. There is a nice restaurant and bar which has been recently renovated. Rooms are big, A/C is cold, shower is good and bed comfortable. Decor is not the latest, but who cares. Everything works fine. It is a bit of a walk to the main street of town, but only a couple of minutes in the car. It is very quiet. No road noise. Quite reasonably priced. We paid $125, but some nights are as low as $99.

Staff were great and food in restaurant was good. Beds were comfortable and room was clean but very old and a bad smell in the bathroom when the exhaust fan was on. Close to the main road so could hear the traffic through out the night.

Motel in a mining town.
Good value motel with pleasant staff. The only negative found was the absence of maid service on Sunday, however this does reflect the nature of service generally in a working class mining town.

A good one for the workers
The motel is clean a bit dated a bit far from the town if you are a visitor with out a car plenty to see.hot water runs out when the workers get home which was a bit frustrating as we were going out other wise you get what you pay for

friendly staff old but ok
Stayed overnight on a Saturday driving from Perth. Easy to find and close to the town centre. The motel, like most in Kal, is setup for mine workers (as in the name!). Check in was easy and staff friendly. The rooms have that 80's feel and are basic but clean and functional. Didn't do breakfast which is actually a few block down the road in another motel (same owners I guess). Nice place for a stop over.

budget motel at a reasonable price
Room was basic, older style and although it was on the main road the traffic noise was virtually non existant. Mattress was okay, but I rolled toward the middle disturbing my partner. Foxtel was included as was wireless, however this would not connect but as we were only staying a very short time we did not bother mentioning it. The motel is not really within walking distance of the town centre.

A good, economical choice motel
A good economical choice hotel. Slightly dated, but with efficient , warm hospitable staff who are a credit to the motel. No complaints for the price, just bear in mind that the city center is a good 45 minutes walk or $12 taxi fare away. There is a public bus, however it is infrequent and does not run on Saturday Afternoons, Sundays or Public Holidays.

Very miss leading when booking.
We thought we had booked a room with a spa bath from you web site. The first room we had was very average . High road noise Noisey aircon. We booked for 2 adults i child but only had towles and cups for 2. After complaining to the office and paying extra we moved to a nicer room and enjoyed the ballance of our stay.

Fair hotel
Dont bother your self to go to the restaurant as its very expensive and the food is below average. This is a miners hotel so dont dont have high expectation. The hotel is not bad but not what i paid. Reception close around 9pm or 10pm so make sure to arrive around that time.
