We stayed at this property on our recent road trip from Brisbane to Sydney. The rooms looked like they had been recently renovated. The bathroom was clean and spacious. The rooms were spacious with a nice balcony overlooking the river. Friendly staff. Easy to organise late check in. Would recommend.

We stayed for 2 nights, room looked exactly as on web side, view on the river,very clean. Very friendly staff they offered to changed towels after first night. Walking distances to all restaurant and to town. Only downside,: no kitchenette no sinks and no designated car park so first came first served but for us it wasn't any problem. I would recommend.

The renovations were excellent. The fixtures in the room and bathroom have been improved. Only downside would be the lack of extra power points. We needed an extra one at the table. Luckily, we brought an extra power board to plug into the one in the corner of the room where the lamp was. Other than that, The Palm Court is an excellent place to stay as it is close to the port for whale watching, our main reason for going to Port Macquarie. It’s walkable to all restuarants and shops.
