As an Australian outback Hotel/Motel is met and in some areas exceeded our expectations. Extremely clean, secure and friendly we could not fault it. Our rooms had been recently renovated with brand new beds and appliances. Jalal
Was very accommodating and helpful. This is a young new business who are working hard to upgrade it and should strongly be supported. Bonus, we found out the Katherine club has a courtesy shuttle that collects and drops off free of charge. Great for dinner in a small town.
Knotts Crossing Resort offers air-conditioned rooms with private bathroom and cable TV, just 2 km from Katherine town centre. It features an outdoor swimming pool, plus a restaurant and bar.

The deck at sunset was such a beautiful experience, on our own with huge views. Tent was very comfortable, I would totally recommend this experience, and only 10 mins drive onto the gorge.

We did a cruise of Katherine (Nitmiluk) Gorge which involved two gorges with a short walk in between. This was very enjoyable, comfortable with an interesting and informative narration. Scenery is spectacular and not to be missed.

Katherine was a vibrant town but we were only passing through on our way to Darwin .The Glamping tent accomodation which was pet friendly at the Gorge View Bush Retreat and Sunset view of the Gorge appealed to us as a stopover.

We chose the wrong time to visit Katherine during monsoon season. Most tourist sites are closed and very limited to what you can do. It’s a waste of time for us. In addition the accommodation we booked didn’t meet our expectations, so we decided to drive back to Darwin.

Not much appeal for Katherine Town itself however there is plenty of Indigenous arts and cultural experiences around to witness. Main purpose of the stay was for Nitmiluk which was sensational with a wealth of knowledge from the guides on the Indigenous culture and way of life.

We only spent a day at Katherine, as we were on the way to Kakadu. We visit the Katherine hot springs which was lovely for a morning dip as there weren't many people there yet. Would recommend canoeing in Katherine Gorge, stunning views and you might see some crocodiles. Edith falls is also another good place to visit for a hike and swim.

Nitmiluk (Katherine) Gorge is amazing.
Nitmiluk (Katherine) Gorge is amazing. Try to book the sunset cruise, you won't be disappointed. Absolutely beautiful and the guides are great, providing knowledge of the gorge from the Jawoyn traditional owners perspective.
Another highly recommended place to visit is Top Didj - and book the cultural show with Manual. A very fun, interactive and informative session, where he will show you how to make fire, throw a spear and paint traditionally. This is a must do when you're in town.
The best waterhole in and around Katherine is the Hot Water Springs - not overly crowded like Mataranka, and the upper and lower pools are absolutely beautiful. Take a noodle and float on downstream. Best way to cool off in Katherine - the water is not hot, nor is it cold - is the perfect temperature.
If you have time, spend a day at Mataranka and visit Bitter Springs and the Thermal Pools. Both were nice, although very popular and busy.

three coworkers travelling together, a room each. we all agreed Katherine Motel is the cleanest Motel we have ever stayed in, including the grounds.
awesome central location.
the restaurant that is within the grounds is delcious and well priced.
staff were friendly, accomodating and very helpful.
we have booked our next two work trips to stay at Katherine Motel as well, very happy
The property was very nice. I stayed in one of the bunk rooms. It was small, but perfect for one person. The bathrooms were some of the cleanest I’ve ever seen. There are a ton of mosquitos, so don’t forget bug spray at night. The pool was great. Staff was super nice and helpful to try to help me find a way to the gorge.
Very clean and comfortable cabins. Location is perfect, only a short drive to town but far enough so that it's safe, and not far from Katherine Gorge. Staff was welcoming. Good wifi. Grounds are well maintained. Highly recommend this park.
I always stay at the Knotts Crossing when passing through Katherine as it is fantastic value for money, beautiful grounds and clean, comfortable rooms. The staff are always helpful and the food at the restaurant is good.
Minutes away from Katherine. The pool was fantastic. You could hang out, have a BBQ, use the well stocked kitchen and enjoy a quiet bush land setting. They even had an ice machine. A home away from home. Loved it!
It is a great hotel in the middle of the national park. The food was probably made by a French cook, so the best we have had in Australia so far. The rooms are big and well equipped. The location is excellent.
Gorgeous location, lovely staff, clean simple comfy cabin that stayed cool overnight and had everything I needed. Lovely shady park too. Nice spot just a little out of town and so close to the Springs.
Our older son managed to join us half-way through our trip at Katherine and Shady Lane were very prompt and helpful when we queried about accommodating an extra person for our last night there.
There aren’t many options in Katherine- this hotel was very clean, comfortable, and relatively updated. Good value for the price. Didn’t try the restaurant but had good reviews. I
