Lady at Reception was nice and helpful. I booked the "Gold Spa Room" which was quite basic, not enough toiletries the waterviews are not the Bay, but a narrow river which the train tracks ran alongside, normal trains and very loud fright trains running day and night. I felt a bit misled. I thought I was booking a place in Warners Bay as that is the search I did, others on same page were at Warners Bay and the the water views are of the Bay. Macquarie 4 Star is not, it is a Hotel with adjoining rooms. Feels like your in the middle of nowhere.
