This hotel was very nice. More upscale than typical holiday inn express hotels. Great breakfast included. The location was good but no real view to see. It was a city hotel but close to everything. The front desk staff were very friendly.

The room was large enough for two to share, although glass walls on the bathroom are not ideal for friends staying together. Buffet breakfast was great and good coffee available too. Definitely will be booking here again next time we are in town

We only stayed overnight at Holiday Inn Newcastle, it was comfortable, clean, parking was great and breakfast was good. Just one comment as we hadn’t been there before it wasn’t easy to find being set back from the street but that’s all.

Great hotel in Newcastle! This is the third time I’ve stayed at the Holiday Inn Express and would be my first pick for a hotel in Newcastle. Great location, friendly staff and great buffet breakfast. Parking is easy and is $20 a night and can be pre-booked online.

Our second stay here, the room was equally well presented as the last time. Breakfast this stay was better than our last, this time more choices for those who don't like a plate full of greasy bacon. The hotel's location is close to resteraunts and cafés, with the awesome Honeysuckle bay just across the road, where you will find resteraunts, cafés, entertainment, and a walk that will take you all the way along the foreshore to Newcastle's Nobbys Lighthouse and the breakwater.
