One of the better motels in Lithgow.
Great spot with a very nice restaurant and lounge area with an open fire. Room was very clean, comfy bed and car was not visible from the road. Close to the highway but didn’t hear anything at night with the doors closed.
Would stay here again for sure.

Clean, sound proof room and comfy mattress
When we arrived, we were greeted by friendly reception staff. The hotel is very comfortable, as you could park your car immediately outside your room at your designated space. Room is sound proof and every thing is clean. Mattress very comfortable and slept really well. Great hotel to stay in if you are visiting blue mountain area. Super good value with excellent food at the restaurant.
