Great to stay somewhere where there is a good selection of independent craft beers at the venue. The pillows were too high. That's the worst criticism I can come up with, which indicates that it is a good place to stay.

A gem in Lake Macquarie area

Warners At The Bay is truly a gem in Lake Macquarie area. The room is comfortable and very quiet. It is easy to access tourist attractions plus the price is reasonable. The front desk staff members are nice & sincere. Highly recommended.
