    clean room
    comfortable bed
    great location
    dusty surfaces
    bathroom updates

    I loved the clean, spacious room at 3 Explorers Motel. The bedding felt fresh, and the electric blankets. Location couldn't be better. Just a short walk to the fine Three Sisters. The daily room servicing was a plus, and the easy self-check-in process suited me well. There were a few drawbacks. The fridge was tiny, not ideal for storing much, and the dust around the side tables was disappointing. The bathroom needed some updates. The ceiling was peeling, likely from moisture. While the comfort and cleanliness stood out, the maintenance could use attention.

    Lovely hotel, appreciated our stay, it had GOOD food and absolutely perfect location in a quiet residential area of Katoomba. Location: the venue was close to Waradah Aboriginal Centre, and the Blue Mountains and Katoomba. Spent a nice evening at Grand View Restaurant, located easy walk to the venue. Booked a room with the shower over the spa. The room had a modern design.

    Although everything was really good, some of the staff were very rude.

    great value
    cozy environment
    small fridge
    cleaning attention

    During our two-night stay, we enjoyed the spacious Two-Bedroom Suite with a spa bath, which was perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring the area. Being just a short walk from the stunning views at the Echo Point made our trip even more enjoyable. The suite was a great value for the price, and even though the fridge was small, it had just enough space for our drinks. A nice touch was the air conditioner being on upon arrival, so we walked into a cozy environment after a chilly day outside.

    Close enough to the town. Walking distance to echo point but a car is needed to get around to other tourist places. Motel very good well appointed rooms. Good value for money! Some advise...it very cold at night but not in the rooms( they are very warm) if you want to watch movies you need to take your own dvd player! Which we did so it was cool!

    The Location and the cleanliness of the motel. The rooms was simple and we got a room that had way more beds then we needed, which we were surprised. Would definitely recommend this place to others. The rooms were new and the decor was simple with all the the necessities including a microwave, iron, fridge. The staff was accommodating as the free breakfast is catered for meat eaters and they substituted it for me as I am vegetarian. Would definitely go back there.

    Was unable to get the wi-fi to work, as we were staying for one night only we didn't bother to ask the staff.

    clean room
    comfortable beds
    broken glass

    Clean room with comfortable beds. The queen room provided decent space for a family stay with a cozy setup.

    The room had a musty smell and the bed was uncomfortably hard. Broken bathroom parts posed safety risks, prompting a frustrating request for removal. We also discovered dangerous broken glass under the cot.

    The gentleman was extremely nice. Free WiFi was offered.

    The bathroom is cold. We really feel the price is too high for what is offered. We paid 145 dollars per night. For that rate we experienced much more luxurious and modern hotel rooms around Australia. Still, the location is excellent.

    It's location. Close proximity to shops, attractions, and train station.

    There was a heater in the room but it did not reach the bathroom. It was cold. The water in the shower would also change between hot and cold without you touching it.

    clean room

    Stayed at explorers for 3 nights, and it was a great location! Just a short walk to the three sisters and scenic world. The room was warm, comfortable, and clean, with a nice fridge for our drinks. We appreciated the easy phone check-in process.

    the decor is a bit older, but it didn't bother us too much.
