“The heritage design, set in Katoomba, distinguishes this hotel, and its range of room options particularly suits families or groups; its location means the Three Sisters are within walking distance. While some aspects show the building's age, its character and village setting are appealing. I think this hotel balances heritage charm with a convenient location for exploring.”
