Katoomba Mountain Lodge

Not great. Reviews were right. Booked by accident. But area expensive. You get a bunk bed in a room you may share with a couple.

The worst place to stay at. Waited 50 mins to be checked in then we got to our room and I would’ve rathered stay in a jail sell for the night with 5 other guys. Immediately checked out after 5 mins of being there

My room was clean and neat. The manager was very friendly and kind. The hostel was quiet and fairly peaceful. Some things were overlooked like bathroom cleanliness and lack of toilet paper. But otherwise the location was perfect and it suited my needs

this room worked pretty well for me. the building is a huge building, and appears to be an old (1950s?) boarding house - if you have any interest in architecture you will like its characteristics. the room did not have its own en-suite, but the shared toilets and showers were ok. every other room started at double the cost! the manager was Ron, and he was helpful.

Dirty, it was impossible to sleep in such a place, I lost my money because they said it was too late for a refund. the photos on the site do not reflect reality, highly not recommended

The common areas are dated (especially the main eating hall), the common carpets are dated and most things are a bit worn. It’s pretty basic.

The property is close to the train station. In common areas are dated, especially the dining area with it's brown veneer panels. The female toilets didn't have hand basins, you have to go into a large shower or wash them in your room using the small handbasin. My room was next to a 'reading room' which has some foot traffic and my door opened onto this room which felt less private; especially as it also had a fire exit door. The property manager was helpful. The property has many stairs and rooms and corridors that have more steps that are larger than your average step height. The property can be accessed via a lane which is convenient to cut across to the main street etc.

Nice place; but the bunk beds were extremely loud which makes getting up in the middle of the night sound like a klaxon alarm. Just hope you dont need to drink some water or go to the toilet while on the top bunk :)

The room was filthy the tv didnt work and was told to go to common room an watch tv with other guests, the shower curtain was that mouldy it stuck to itself the shower itself was disgusting doesnt look like its been cleaned in a long time.

A very comfortable hostel in the Blue Mountians area (Katoomba). The staff are very hospitable. Facilities are real up to par. WIll stay here if I ever return to this area.

People would just walk in in the middle of the night, it seemed like there was no cut off for booking times or showing up.. however if I wanted accommodation I’d just rock up at any minute of the night..

Why would Wotif say that the rooms have private bathrooms if they don’t. It’s so annoying if the description of the room is wrong and I have to go on an expedition to find a toilet at 2am

We stayed here for a night. The Checkin process was a lil bit of a hassle, it was a lil tough to find the place too. The shared bathrooms were not very clean, it was super cold but we were provided heaters. Overall an okay stay but I would not go back.

Great location, rooms a bit different to advertised.

Clean, nice sunny room and good location

It is budget accommodation, so do not expect much but still good to stay for a night when all day in the Blue Mountains. Clean and quiet, though internet didn't work last weekend

Oldiesh but quiet, clean and close to the city. Grocery shops and restaurants walk within 5 minutes. I would definitely stay again.

It was cosy and comfortable.Nothing I didn’t like

Comfortable bed at a great price. The building has a lot of charm.
