“From what I explored, this hotel seems to balance contemporary style with a prime waterfront position on the Hastings River. I noticed the recent refurbishment clearly elevates the rooms, especially those with balconies overlooking the water. While some reports mention inconsistent service, the central location near shops and beaches, plus the award-winning restaurant, still positions it as a notable option in Port Macquarie.”
