We stayed in one of the higher‑priced suites and were very happy overall. The view was outstanding, overlooking both the river and the ocean, and it was genuinely special being able to watch dolphins from the room. The location was perfect for our stay. I chose the hotel specifically for its proximity to the Port Macquarie Half Marathon and wasn’t disappointed. It was incredibly convenient, and the suite also gave my wife a great vantage point to watch the race without having to leave the hotel. The room itself was comfortable and well appointed, and the stay met expectations for the price point. Any faults were minor. The pool area could get quite noisy with kids at times, and if you weren’t attending the running festival, the early morning loudspeaker announcements and music (from around 6:30am through to midday) could be disruptive. That said, it wasn’t an issue for us given the reason for our stay. Overall, a great experience in a prime location. I’d happily stay again, particularly if attending an event or wanting a room with a view.

Great location between the centre of town and the waterfront. Modern room - recently renovated with USB sockets bedside. Great King sized bed, but we had to request softer pillows to replace the bolsters given initially! We were a bit surprised to be charged an additional $30 per night for parking. That on top of $360 for the room! Staff behind the desk were far from welcoming on arrival and continued in that stiff/formal/impersonal way - which did not seem appropriate for Port Macquarie!!

This place is outstanding. Already at arrival reception staff, Marie and Nicole, were professional, polite, likeable and gave us little perks, nothing so special but enough to make us feel welcome. Room was great, pool is incredibly clean and well maintained, soft water. There is a nice little buffet with a beautiful view in the morning; outstanding location. Parking is $30 but no fuss. Gym? Forget it - here the gym is outside all around you in a beautiful location with great weather. We stayed one night on our road trip to elsewhere and this hotel was outstanding. Family? Highly recommended.

Clean, newly renovated rooms. Excellent hot water and pressure. Friendly and fast customer service. Pool is both shaded and sunlit, provides towels. Parking is a bit pricey at $30 but secure.

The perfect stop as a family we always stay here one night to break up our drive from Sydney to Gold Coast this was our 4th time staying. The pool area is amazing the temperature is great along with a large spa as well with beautiful views of the water, pool towels are also provided which is great and there’s a decent sized gym on site. The rooms have been refurbished since we last stayed and they are stunning super modern look. Location is great walking distance to basically everything you Need. Will continue staying here next time we hit the road.
