The hotel pool is well equipped with a BBQ facility, cooking equipment and seving plates, it was fantastic after been visiting the national parks near Katherine in warms days to return to the hotel have a swing in the pool and use the bbq for facilities to cook dinner instead of going out to a restaurant.

Katherine relaxing break
Relaxing stay in Katherine. Motel had all the necessary features. Pool was enjoyable albeit a little cool. Entry requires a code to enter on a keypad. A little tricky on arrival as we had not received an email re the code. Quickly resolved with a phone call to the contact mobile. Staff quite helpful. Katherine has a number of features eg Nitmuluk Gorge, Hot springs, Top Didj that can fill a few days.

The decor may be a little dated but don’t let that fool you. Great little spot to stay. Staff are super friendly and we thought the include breakfast was awesome and catered really for those with allergies.

Loved it. It is a late 70s property with original fittings, but is very clean. To our delight a full breakfast was part of the deal and at night they make excellent pizzas that you can buy at eat by the pool. The manager was chatty, the staff happy and friendly. Would happily stay again if ever going to Katherine.

Management were super lovely and very helpful recommending places to visit and eat at. Great atmosphere around the pool with margaritas and pizza. Great breakfast with hot and cold options. The motel is very central to everything and was an excellent base for travelling around the Katherine region.

This place hosts Territorian style hospitality by the pool most nights. I found their minimal use of air fresheners /cleaning fragrance most pleasing.

Spacious Room
We stayed on two occasions, a week apart. The room was large, very clean and had a long desk and a table with four chairs as well as the expected frig and hospitality tray, iron etc. Bathroom worked well. Air conditioning and blackout blinds were efficient. It’s a few blocks from the centre of town in very quiet surroundings. There is a security fence around the motel, guests are emailed a gate access code to use if reception is closed on arrival. We were told that, if no parking space is available, to park on the grass in front of the motel. Motel does offer breakfast for additional charge, we left early and did not sample it. The Katherine Country Club provides a courtesy bus Tuesday-Sunday nights, if they have a driver available.

The motel itself wasn't that bad although the Wi Fi left something a lot to be desired. There was no soap holder in the shower so no place to put the soap or your shampoo. The shower curtain rod fit loosely in the plug on one side so that if you even pushed slightly on the glass wall, the shower curtain fell down. Breakfast was mediocre for the price. The town of Katherine was very disappointing due to high crime in the area and a security fence mentality that made one wonder if the town could see any growth at all. The sole attraction seems to be the Gorge which is 29 km out of town.

The drop in the floor height when coming out of the bathroom is a hazard. There wasnt an exhaust fan in the bathroom either. The kitchen/bbq area was well equipped.

The room is spacious and the staff are friendly. The facility is a bit old and needs updated. We booked two rooms. The fridge door at one room could not be closed and the bed side tables and shower curtain at another room were missing. The staff are apological and gave us a free breakfast.

Room was nice and spacious but wifi doesn’t work in the rooms. Woken up early each morning by barking dogs across the road who barked for hours. Also not so peaceful because each room faces the hotel driveway so you hear cars slamming doors constantly.

Half decent, rooms are very tired however
Friendly staff, great breakfast, and we loved the pool, BBQ and fire pit. The room and furnishing were terribly old and tatty, our room worse than our friends. The beds were decent, however a doona rather than single sheet with blanket (that probably doesn’t get washed to often) would have been nice and more comfortable.

Hi thanks for your review and glad you enjoyed the breakfast and our staff. We are an old motel and we are clean and honest Different types of rooms here so am not sure which type you had . Blankets do get washed, beds are linen are all new. Yes parking can get tight inside the fence but ample parking outside with lighting.
