The Clarendon is a unique example of an old school guest house. In its heyday it would have been a mecca for accommodation, entertainment and dining. It still has all the hallmarks of its former glory. We really enjoyed our stay at the Carendon.

We stayed for one night and it was perfect for that. Great walking distance to Katoomba. We had a room with shared bathroom and it is quite dated and low on facilities but that was perfectly acceptable as the price was super cheap and we just used it as a place to sleep.

The property was well located on Lurline Street. Just down the hill from Katoomba Street and a short walk to the RSL for a reasonable priced meal. A did wander up the street to the end of Katoomba Street for a lovely Thai meal. So once again, the location was good. A little longer walk to Echo Point, but worthy of the effort. The gentleman who met me was very courteous and helpful, too. A quaint Motel that has seen a few guests over the years but still equal to its ranking. If you get the chance, it will be a lovely stay.

This place may have been great once but that time was long ago. They say they are renovating but I think that may have been a euphemism for “holding on too long to a crumbled relic and still expecting people to pay while the place basically falls down around the guests”. The guy behind the counter did his best, with his tissue box webcam holder and refrozen toast and mercifully we got out without the building falling on our heads. Future guests - Goodluck. Great location though - for a future demolition site!

Badly in need of a renovation

We stayed here because it was convenient to shops. The condition of the motel is awful. Everything is old and dingy. The lights hardly provided enough light. The Rooms smell musty. The gentleman who ran it was helpful. He allowed us to change rooms because the bathroom tap was constantly dripping. I couldn’t recommend this motel. The only redeeming feature was that it was clean.

Derek, staff member friendly person and very helpful. My toilet leaked and then after he fixed it, it wouldnt flush at all. It desperately needs painting and an area to hang washing in. It poured and there were wet clothing, shoes etc. but nowhere to put them.
