Looking for a motel?

Both travelers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help make check-in quick and easy.

    They offer very generously sized and modern apartments just a short walk from both the main shopping area (Wollongong Central) and the hospital. The parking is very easy and convenient. They were also very flexible and accommodating when we had to extend our stay a couple of times. The size and facilities were very useful as it allowed me to work remotely in comfort.

    Clean, comfortable room with good facilities and ample space. Friendly, helpful staff. Lady at the reception kindly put me in a room with a view of the sea. Lift to rooms available. Handy being able to store my luggage at the reception. Nice that guests get a discount at the restaurant at the motel. Convenient location near the beach and a short drive to the town centre.

    The rooms are much better than you would expect from the outside of the motel. The bathroom was very modern and had a deep spa bath which was much appreciated as I have fybromyalgia and most motels don't have baths. The room was very spacious and big comfortable bed.
