The Boat Harbour Motel is situated opposite the stunning Wollongong Harbour and foreshore promenade.

The motel offers 42 units, including 12 with ocean facing rooms. All rooms are air conditioned with a private balcony, kitchenette, tea/coffee facilities, bar fridge, microwave, bathroom with shower, hair dryer, toiletries, free WIFI & Foxtel. Interconnecting rooms are also available.

The Ocean side triple room had a beautiful view, I loved that the window had no fly-screen, it was like outside living. I was sceptical about the bathrooms for cleanliness and mirror for makeup application but it was actually really cute and better than expected. We slept with the windows open and there was a party in the neighbouring property, they had live music and it was the best vibe!

    Conveniently placed to venues, the room was more than ample and furnished well. I haven't slept as well in other motels as I did during my stay and wished I could take the bed home with me.

    Great Location. The room was spacious and very clean. The staff were excellent. Plenty of parking. The motel complex is dated but the price reflex that.

    I absolutely LOVED the remote signing in, it was so clean, I normally do not allow my baby on motel floors because they are not not nice but this one was so clean, will definitely be back when in the area.

    The motel is well located, not far from Anita's Theatre. Although needing a bit of an update, our room was well-appointed with all that guests need - hair dryer, iron, breakfast cereals, crockery, cutlery, milk and other useful items.

    Location was within walking distance of the train station, which suited me. Also, we were able to walk (approx 2km) to the University where we were attending an event. Motel was well back from the road, so was quiet for sleeping.

    Even though we arrived the hotel after the opening hours of the reception, they were really accommodating and friendly. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Location is really good and there is free parking at the motel.
