Enjoyable one night stay
Reviewed By CD323We chose the Kyah as we were playing golf at Blackheath GC and were curious to see how they had updated the old Redleaf Resort. They have done a very nice update and we had a lovely stay. We used our NSW vouchers so cost was only $140….is it worth $240 …..which is the usual rate….I’m not sure how it compares with other places in that regard. Everyone was very friendly and we had a fabulous meal at Blaq (separate review). The room was spacious and comfortable although I found the pillows far too big. The lighting in the bathroom was a bit too dark. The lady in the restaurant Jessica was fantastic and will be in my review of the restaurant. I’m sure once all the landscaping is done it will also look lovely from the outside. In my opinion one of the best assets is Digger the Kelpie who met us at the car and was around quite a bit outside for cuddles and just a fabulous calm beautiful dog. I would recommend and definitely stay again.

Olde World Charm
Reviewed By CJA52A real nod to the character of the 1930s and 40s, dark and moody. We had a comfortable stay for two nights in a Queen room with a hot breakfast included. The room was cosy given that the original design and concept was kept true to the era but all the amenities were included. The bed was very comfortable and the linen crisp and clean. The bathroom was spacious. The hot breakfast was plentiful and tasty. Items were topped up by the staff when you requested. Hard to beat for $19 each. Check in experience was what I expected. Staff were pleasant and engaging and explained everything in detail. A venue true to it's rating. Would stay there again

warm and welcoming
Reviewed By philparaThe Chalet is a beautiful historic building. Staying there is like a step back in time. The walls are covered in wonderful paintings and art works. The owners both named David were very warm, welcoming and friendly. We liked the big open fire, so cosy on a cold night. The rooms were comfortable and the decor was the same old world style. All in all, a greatly superior experience to staying in a motel. It was also located in a quiet but convenient street. We would definitely stay there again.

A Charming Stay
Reviewed By 255060HelenA peaceful tranquil garden setting, a comfortable, gracious room with beautiful balcony and sparkling clean ensuite, this guesthouse is totally charming. It even has its own restaurant, Silks, within the guesthouse, which is a treat to dine in. And the breakfast that is included in the price is delicious, with fresh fruit, home made granola and rhubarb compote, then eggs cooked however you choose. We had a wonderful stay here and highly recommend Silvermere.

Just ok
Reviewed By Lauren BFor the price I thought the experience would be slightly better. No milk or soap in the rooms. But they had a kettle and coffee set up which was strange. Breakfast at was average. Wet cutlery, no serviettes, had to scrap your plate and clean the table afterwards. Beds were comfy and showers were great. Communal area is good for kids with board games etc. parking convenient. Probably fine for one night but I wouldn’t want to be here any longer. Felt a bit school camp like.

Good accommodation - you get what you pay for
Reviewed By IBFozMy wife and I stayed in a 'family room with bathroom'. The room was nice and clean with a very good bathroom. As can be seen from the photos the room does not have any chairs but the bed is very comfortable and there's a good modern TV on the wall. Naturally as it is right on the Great Western Highway there is some road noise but it was not excessive. We ate in the Bistro and the food was excellent. We will definitely stay again.

overnight stay at the Parkside
Reviewed By 019233333We recently stayed in Lithgow. I pulled into the Parkside. First mistake. The women at the counter, I found rude. We arrived at our room ant found that it was tiny. The fridge on the floor was turned off and half of the lights didn't work. The restaurant was closed because of staff shortages so no food. Although was a KFC across the road. Terrible nights sleep. Beds terrible.!!!! In the morning our daughter was a bit slow getting ready. We received a visit by the same women who I take it is the boss. Telling us that check out was10am. The time was 10.15am. Quite rude as seems to be the case in other reviews. We left here shaking our heads and feeling ripped. Never again.

The house was awesome so vintage with so many things to look at. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming with many rooms to make your stay more enjoyable. The breakfasts were varied and appetising with many choices to suit everyone. I would recommend it to everyone.
