Top Wollongong City Beach Hotel Reviews

The Belmore Apartments Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean well appointed apartment, easy parking and very helpful, friendly staff."

Hotel TOTTO Wollongong

8/10 Good

"Very well located in town. Small rooms, but everything you need. Unfortunately lots of noise (from inside the hotel) and teens knocking on doors then running off to the wee hours."

Wollongong Serviced Apartments

8/10 Good

"The room was billed as a two bedroom apartment which is true. It had a fully fitted out kitchen, a small laundry, lounge, dining table and a single bathroom. It is a comfortable two bedroom apartment with secure parking underneath the building. Access is via a lift. It is located close to the centre of town and walking distance to the cafes and restaurants on the beach."

Solomon Inn Wollongong

10/10 Excellent

"You can park right in front of your room. Convienient and close to everything. I like the fact that it has a microwave oven and toaster for cooking,biscuits,coffee and tea facilities. The price is affordable compared to other accomodation in Wollongong."

Novotel Wollongong Northbeach

10/10 Excellent

"convenient central location. Good environment."

Surfside 22

10/10 Excellent

"This is a very cute motel. Decor is lovely and on keeping with the retro vibe. The bed and pillows were comfortable and the bathroom spotless. Highly recommend"

KULA Wollongong

10/10 Excellent

"Nice"

Unanderra Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff were extremely helpful. Cleanliness was really good. Room size was surprisingly huge. Bed was unbelievably comfortable and noise level into the room from the outside were at an absolute minimum. Only drawback: Bathroom, even though practical and very clean, in need of upgrading. Also, if staying during the peak of summer, not having any air con in the room would probably be a negative. Otherwise, most of the year round, the air con would not be needed. Room rates were quite reasonable. I rate 4 out of 5 stars overall :)"

Adina Apartment Hotel Wollongong

10/10 Excellent

"It was second time to stay in Adina. Always has lovely staff. Thank you!"
