Top Port Macquarie Astronomical Association Observatory Hotel Reviews

Comfort Resort Waters Edge

8/10 Good

"Room was clean, however we ate at the restaurant (dinner) and that was a letdown. The food was not nice at all"

Town Beach Motor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This is probably the best motel I've ever stayed in! I had a lovely room with balcony overlooking the beautiful garden. Great kitchenette with it's own sink (ehu3ch is unusual in my experience) and everything necessary for a short stay, including a bottle opener/corkscrew. Great shower and fresh towels each day. There's a chippy and pizza shop round the corner and it's just a short walk into town to beaches, restaurants and shops. Easy parking and a laundry room for us travellers. The owners were lovely and friendly. I'd definitely stay here again if I ever find myself in Port Macquarie again."

Port Aloha Motel

8/10 Good

"I decided to choose Port Aloha as my 3 night stay in Port Macquarie. I based my decision on its room prices and its location to eateries and other town facilities. People might not like the actual motel location as its not close to the jetty or beach locales. Plus its up a hill, but i didnt mind the walk. The motel itself does show its age, compared to other hotels built in the last 5 to 10 yrs. The room itself was clean & tidy, has a functional kitchenette with a sink, microwave, toaster. There is plenty of areas to store things in drawers. The bathroom/ shower was clean as well. People who have mobility issues would have to choose the 4 lower level rooms. If you like to use stairs, this motel is right for you. I only needed to speak to the receptionist when I arrived and she was a cooperative person. I found the motel wi fi signal to be strong and consistent. The car park in the back has limited spaces. An extra large car might be a tight fit in there. A car with a trailer would be a stretch. There is parking spots on the outside street. Motel shares the street with residential housing too. I would choose this motel if I was returning to this area"

Macquarie Waters Boutique Apartment Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Easy to access and clean. Car park very handy Thankyou"

Northpoint Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Great view and very clean"

Sails Port Macquarie - By Rydges

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was beyond expectations,so..10/10 for everything that Sails provided."

El Motor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Very impressed with this venue, clean, neat and very polished operation, I will stay again and highly recommend."

Mantra The Observatory

10/10 Excellent

"Nice spot, close to the beach!"

Mantra Quayside

8/10 Good

"We had a very good and straightforward overnight stay while travelling to Sydney with our family. We arrived around midnight, but arranged check-in by phone beforehand, and our key card was left securely in a lockbox at the front of the property. The process was simple and convenient. Our room was on level two, with a balcony facing the street and a busy roundabout. The view was nothing special, but this did not bother us given that we arrived late and left early the following morning. Checking out was equally easy, as we left the key card in the designated box. The secure parking was easy to access, and we had no difficulty finding a space. The location was convenient, and the price was reasonable. Overall, it was an easy and pleasant experience for a short overnight stay. Five out of five."
