Rooms are a nice size and very clean. The motel is very conveniently located at one end of the main street so just a short walk to restaurants and coffee shops. We are regular visitors to Bowral and wouldn’t stay anywhere else.

We visit bowral roughly every couple of months and this is our favourite place to stay. Always clean, spacious rooms with streaming tv, water pressure is amazing and we never need to use our car because it’s near the Main Street. Even though it’s pub accommodation it is detached with a parking lot between so I’ve never really been bothered with the noise of patrons. Bonus is checking is a 12pm and our room has always been ready. Beds are very comfortable and pub food is great.

These are standard 3 star hotel rooms with allocated parking space. Air con not great though did the job after a while. Was on my own for the first night though felt quite safe there. Room was very clean and beds were comfy. The location is excellent close to train station, main street with most things a short walk. The accommodation is steps from the hotel proper which is really nice - warm and cosy. They sell usual pub food which was really good as well as wood fired pizza. Great for a short stay in Bowral!
