Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Worst hotel stay ever!! Everything about this hotel was a massive flop including the staff, the facilities, the rooms, the restaurants and the service. We would never recommend nor be visiting again!!!!

Wet weekend in Port Stephens
After a minor hiccup with our first room the staff could not have been more helpful in making our stay great. Lunch at Rick Stein’s with friends was fantastic, the Cheeky Dog was fun with great pub fare and the breakfasts were delicious. If the food seems to be the main feature this was only because we had a wet weekend. Even so walking on the shore outside the hotel was great way to work off some of the excess elsewhere.

View was as advertised for the room - wonderful. However you could have taken the door off of its hinges - the gap and cold draft were not a highlight.
