Great family room with a slant

Reviewed By AllPlanet

My family spent two nights here and found the room size comfortable. My girls loved the bunk beds. Great location within walking distance to sites, cafes, art places..etc. management tired but friendly. The floor had a slant on it and it was like being on a ship but I guess that is the charm of a semi historic property. Would stay again without hesitation.

Value for Money

Sky Motor Inn is a good option for drivers exploring Blue Mountains. It is located a short 3 min drive to Katoomba town and just outside the Great Western Highway. Check in was fast and staff gave a quick run down on the places of interests with helpful suggestions. Room is of decent space (we booked a Family Room for 5 which comes with one large bed, 3 single beds, a dining set and bathroom) and clean. Place is quiet despite it having high occupancy rate (judging by the number of parked cars).

The good things. Really close to town and main Street. The best were comfortable enough and had the basic amenities you need. The not so good things . The motel (just like the town it self) was extremely dated. We went peak season so paid a fair penny but it was a bit over priced for its condition. It smelt if mould and wet, the carpets were stained and looked ruined. The shower had absolutely no pressure and was hard to wash in.

Average accommodation

Reviewed By Keellie

We booked this for location and restaurant, location of what we needed was great, cleanliness was average the room smelt musty and obviously the curtains had not been cleaned for some time nor were they moved for cleaning behind the curtains, went and asked about the restaurant and breakfast which is no longer in operation however is still advertised on the website and in the hotel information in the rooms. trying to organise some form of dinner was minimal due to no availability for uber eats or other alternative options.

Close to town

If you just want a bed this is the place to stay, very basic, close to town and not very inviting. Wifi and Netflix did not work and it was rather dated. Better places to stay but ok for the convenience of being closer to town. Would not stay here again

Okay for an overnight stop

Reviewed By bdg100

The name has changed -Blue Mountains Highway Motel, KATOOMBA. The photos do not represent the motel as it has considerably aged probably in the last two years of no travel !! The rooms are clean and tidy but the toilet needs upgrading and better housekeeping.
