Absolutely everything was amazing. We had the best stay from the morning tea to a wine by the fire. Wonderful breakfast and courteous staff. Definitely will be back.

Some people would not like sharing bathroom.
I don't mind at all.
Hence I haven't given a full 10 despite the arrangement being quite comfortable.
It's quite a classic little hotel now spending most of its life as a health retreat.
The big massage chair looked very tempting (and woukd have been irresistible to the trail runners doing their 50 and 100 km slogs over the mountain trails on the Saturday.
I had to get away to the nephew's wedding, however.
Situated within an Art Deco heritage-listed building, YHA Blue Mountains Katoomba offers a range of rooms, a BBQ area, a games room and an impressive former ballroom with a cosy fireplace.

In the heart of the Blue Mountains with lots of eating options. Lots of great walks nearby. The 3 sisters are within walking distance so you can avoid the parking charges recently implemented in the area.

Katoomba main street is still struggling after covid with quite a few empty shop fronts however mother nature and her spectacular views make up for this. Scenic World as the main draw is always worth the trip and Nocturnal event is a new way to experience the Valley. Of course Echo Point and 3 sisters are a must as is Govetts Leap lookout. So many pretty towns around like Leura and if you have time take a little side teip to Lithgow. Highly recommend this trip. Parking is an issue around the town centre and usual tourist attractions but worth dealing with anyway.

Direct train from Sydney.
Direct train from Sydney. Very quaint traditional old mining town, old fashioned 'high street' with plenty of places to stay and eat. We stayed in the grand Carrington Hotel which has a lot of history as part of the evolution of the town. Our main reason for visiting was to easily access the Katoomba based hop-on/off bus to visit The Blue Mountains. This worked perfectly and as well as seeing Katoomba and the blue Mountains, we also got to visit the pretty neighbouring village of Leura which is included in the route. We felt we made a very good choice.

Katoomba has everything you will need or find in a regional town. The large supermarkets are available and open for longer hours for groceries (Aldi, Coles, Woolworths). The shops and restaurants close early, so check times and organise around that. There are limited number of restaurants and eateries in town. We ate at Rustico - this place is almost always full (even on weekdays) - best book ahead. We had one sunny day out of 3 days. Luckily that was enough to visit Scenic World, do the rides and walk around. We recommend taking the Blue Mountains Explorer Bus (hop-on hop-off) to minimise driving. There are many easy to medium walks along the clifftops.

The new Cliff Top walk to Wentworth Falls was excellent.
The new Cliff Top walk to Wentworth Falls was excellent. Just right level for me. It would be good if the shuttle buses went to Gordon Falls and Leura as I had to walk back along the roads a lot. Also access to the walk at Scenic World was closed, which was annoying as the walk is advertised to start there. It was Easter Sunday and very busy but this should have been made clear perhaps with signs at Katoomba Falls where the walk actually started from. I ate at 8 Things, great value and the RSL which was not so great. The Pool of Siloam is one of the best things in the mountains I discovered this weekend.

The town is lovely, great places to eat and drink, lots of attractions and view points, short drives to many other places. I really enjoyed it. One thing i would mention, as we were caught out with this, the whole town stops serving food at 8pm, so you do have to choose between watching the sunset and eating.
The location is excellent. When in the house it seems like you are really isolated but you're actually quite close to Katoomba. The view is sensational & the large deck in good weather made the view central to our stay. The 3 friends I stayed with regarded the bath to be the best bath they had ever had in their lives. Not being a bath person I really rated the rain shower in the laundry. The house was clean & has everything you need. I would not hesitate to recommend it or to stay there again.
Staying at this hotel is like being wrapped in a cozy blanket of luxury, with views that could make even the most seasoned traveler pinch themselves just to check if it's real. The scenery outside the window is so stunning, it's like Mother Nature hired a personal decorator. And let's talk about the rooms - they're so lovely, I half expected them to tuck me in at night and read me a bedtime story. It's like sleeping in a cloud made of marshmallows and dreams.
I liked the cleanliness and comfiness of the room at the Metropolis Hotel. I was moved here from Echo Point Motel due to maintenance issue and was kindly advised by the staff on the day. Check in and out was seamless. The Metropolis gives off vintage vibes. The facilities are great. The Metropolis location is also in the Katoomba CBD making it easy and convenient to get food & explore during any weather (raining during my stay).
The rooms are a little old but comfortable and clean. Good space. The breakfast is optional, well served and at a relatively low cost. The location is perfect, close to the train station and in the high part of the main street, close to restaurants and attractions. The hotel has a good parking space and the old atmosphere is amazing. It is our second time there and we hope to return many more. The staff is very friendly!
We have stayed here several times and love the place.
It is very central in Katoomba and our room was spacious and well set up with a small kitchen ,iron etc.
This hotel is old and not greatly renovated but has lots of character. The bathroom is tired and needs renovation. This hotel is not for everyone but it is reasonably priced and meets our needs.
Great staff.
Old fashioned style hotel with a large communal area with fireplace, and vintage decor. Room was warm, comfy and clean and reception was friendly and helpful. Close proximity to Katoomba RSL for dining, and a chocolate cafe just up the road. Simple contintental breakfast served onsite to get started for the day. No frills but great for a short 1 night stay.
Loved staying at this charming boutique hotel that was perfect for an overnight stay, literally 50 metres from the Katoomba train station. Great staff, communicative. The sheets and oversized pillows were starched-white and ultra fresh and clean, which is always very welcome. Ask for a room with a view.
Fantastic old style hotel on main street (katoomba st). A bit walk from station specially because there's a hill, but I did it easy because I am used to walk.
Near Bus to take to three sisters. And scenic world. About 30 min walk...
The staff is super kind. Top!
Great parking for those who bring car
The view from the room was superb, unblocked views of the mountains from both inside the room and out on the balcony! Also a bonus to have access to its sister hotel Lilianfels facilities and amenities, loved the heated indoor pool :)
Hot water system was fantastic.
Walking distance to Katoomba (up hill but easier than trying to park up there).
A bit noisy (traffic) when we arrived but quieter at night. We left at 7, noise of traffic just starting again.
Was a basic clean room. Bed and pillows were decent and the staff were excellent. The location is great, only a short distance from central Katoomba, hotel has plenty of parking, and the pool is clean and well maintained.
The hotel occupies the perfect position to view the Blue Mountains- choose a Mountain View room for a fantastic view from your bed! Staff were all lovely, breakfast & dinner were superb & we would definitely stay again!
location was nice, friendly family business, if u want to see the beauty around it is easy to move with the public transportation, bus to touristic points at the door. katoomba is lovely for walking in nature.
Everything. The staff were great, the rooms better than in several 5 star hotels I've stayed in. If you're going to Katoomba, stay here - as I will again in a few months time when the weather is better.
The way they have preserved the history of the hotel is the best. The rooms are comfortable and spacious, the view are amazing, and the staff are simply wonderful! My favourite hotel in Katoomba!
The location is close to Katoomba Train Station only 5 min walk, many restaurants nearby and Coles. The room is clean, the bed is comfortable. The staffs are nice and helpful.
Nicely located in the heart of Katoomba, walking distance from the restaurants shops, the Three Sister Lookout. Friendly staff and parking spots. Would stay again.
Lovely 1900s style hotel with exceptional views of the valley beyond. Friendly, helpful staff. Central location to both Katoomba and Leura. Great breakfast!
