Top Carey Bay Hotel Reviews

The Grand Hotel Newcastle

8/10 Good

"Room simple but included all needed elements. Queen bed two singles pushed together. Need to avoid the gap."

The Executive Inn

8/10 Good

"Very convenient location. Amazing personnel. We are family, stayed in two rooms. One room was renovated with new furniture. Another room was with the old furniture but clean. Rooms are spacious enough. Parking was included in the price. Plenty of parking space. Heated outdoor spa-pool: such a nice addition. It was amazing to relax there in the morning before breakfast or after the long day. If robes are needed it is required to speak at the reception to have them. Breakfast was included in our stay. Not many options but everything what is needed. Food was tasty: bacon, scrambled egg, sausages, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes. Porridge. Serials. Some fruits and berries. Coffee / tea / juice / hot chocolate. Pastries. Minor disadvantages: 1. Before booking I called the hotel asking whether we need to bring robes with us or they will be provided. I was told that robes will be in the room. Unfortunately, robes were not there. And to receive them it was needed to speak to a manager. 2 robes were provided. We asked for another two robes (4 adults in our family), but a person who provided room service did not give them to us. Pool towels were provided only once, I asked for them next day but we didn’t receive them. 2. AC - old and extremely noisy. After long days sightseeing the city we were so tired that slept deeply, otherwise it might be difficult to fall asleep with roaring AC. 3. Room service: so-so."
