Ανακαλύψτε τη διαμονή σας σε Newcastle

2 days before 3 of us were due to stay at another property in Newcastle, (a 2 bedroom apartment), I was called to say the apartment I had booked (Nouveau on Young) had become unavailable due to the people in it extending their stay. Suffice to say that a heated discussion entailed and even more so when the only alternative they offered was a 1 bedroom apartment with a trundle bed in the lounge room for my 70 year old sister to sleep in, in this so called ”Executive Apartment” in a completely different suburb!! The only recompense the SMUG manager offered was free parking! OR of course the other option of cancelling our booking and getting a refund.... We had booked the other apartment 6 months before our stay as it is very near the Stadium where we were seeing a concert and obviously the whole of Newcastle was booked out by the time it came to 2 days beforehand. This apartment was ok, though not properly cleaned. The bedroom is small, the furniture is old and worn. The verandah not maintained. It certainly isn't big enough for 3 people to stay in comfortably! This company operates a string of properties in Newcastle and I would be wary of receiving any reliability, help, sympathy or recompense regarding your booking.

For a hostel, the Newcastle Beach YHA is a great value for money. Location is perfect, 5 minute walk to the beach, right off the light rail from the train station and overall quiet (minus weekends). The vintage home has great curb appeal and is in overall good condition inside. The stained glass windows, deep couches and foyer/staircase are very comfortable to relax in. Kitchen is a little tired but overall in good condition and well stocked. Laundry worked well too and powder is available for sale. The bedrooms can get really warm and stuffy, even with the window open. And with no air con, summer would be hot here. Good storage with outlets in the rooms but the bed squeak and move around a lot of both bunks are filled. WiFi works well in the common space too. And the hostel has activities during the week, like a free sausage sizzle, which was fun. My only quibble was how well the WHV kids living there cleaned the place. Watching a few of them while eating or cooking, it seemed like a quick touch and go job. Kitchen doesn’t seem to be cleaned out regularly as I could smell rotting food regularly in the fridge. Would recommend it and would stay again, but if you want quieter atmosphere, don’t go on weekends.

We enjoyed our stay, had 2 different nice generous rooms in a traditional pub. In the bigger one you couldn't open the windows (I like fresh air at night) but it was a hot air con night anyway, so all good. Parking requires a bit of smartness, if you don't want to pay meters look up the hill. The Grand is only two blocks from the beach and one block from two very good coffee places plus plenty of restaurants. Nice draft beers downstairs.

very good apartment, comfy bed too. Great location, it is the end of town to stay in. Went to Thai on same street, up past the beach tram stop. Definitely eat there again. The beer at Grainery (or whatever it's called), also on same street towards beach, very good too. Breakfast best two blocks up the side street on corner of Bolton and King, has the best breaky and coffee around. I will go back to Terminus Apartments next trip.

Great location, easy remote operated check in service. Communal area presented well. The lift worked to go upwards from ground to level one, but it wasn’t functioning when we left (downwards function from level one to ground). Room 1 - upon entering had a horrible dirty shoe smell. It has a major shower drainage problem where the fall of the shower floor runs into the room, possibly over time water on the carpet is causing the constant smell. The hand basin drain was also blocked. The renovation was modern, however the wear and tear is now evident. Could do with a bond clean and some maintenance. The ratings could improve easily if maintenance and cleanliness were addressed because the service and location are great.

Extremely disappointed with the internet service. It was simply pathetic. 2-3 mps when you’re lucky is a painful reminder of how complacent Australian hotel management is towards its customers. In no other country I’ve been to has service been as poor, even in some 3rd world locations, that leave us way behind. Arrived early, unable to check in (as expected), but the promised phone call to let us know the room was ready didn’t happen. Not sure why offers are made when there doesn’t seem to be any intention to deliver. Otherwise a good hotel, in a good location; near the beach, with plenty of good food and coffee venues nearby.

Quite a nice old hotel that's been refurbished. Rooms are clean and nice- beds a bit too close together in a twin room, there's a fridge and coffee/tea making facilities. Lots of power points. Lighting could be better. We were there Easter Sunday and there was an all day rave until 10pm- the walls were shaking it was so loud! Shame it was doof doof music and not some decent stuff or we'd have joined in! The corridors are adorned with old photos/prints which is a nice touch. I liked the place a lot. Comfy bed, nice rooms. Good location.

After a tiring day of touring and driving, my husband and I were exhausted and ready to check into our hotel, only to find out we accidentally booked it the day before. We were warmly greeted by Jane, who immediately went to work to change things and get us a room. Jane was not only adorable, but super friendly, happy and it was obvious she loves her job and the people she works with. She showed us to our room which was even nicer in person than the pictures. Would HIGHLY recommend this hotel.
