I really enjoyed staying here; spotlessly clean, light, well-funrished rooms, well-equipped kitchen, great harbour veiws. There is a small safe in the bedroom, big towels, lovely open-air Pool, very pleasant staff. Newcastle has made a recovery from the dark times & is a delightful place. Nice restaurants are a short walk round the corner, easy access Car Park. I do... More

Great location right near the harbour and the Honeysuckle precinct. Our room on the 2nd floor had a view of a vacant building block, which looked as though it was about to get another commercial block built on it. When we arrived a guy was having issues with the room card. We had problems with our card in the car... More

We paid well over $200 for a first floor balconny room on a weekend, with no breakfast or parking. Last November we paid a similar amount at the Stamford on the Brisbane River but wirth everything included. The excessive price was our only real bugbare.

The floor of the kitchenette was not cleaned properly upon arrival (it had sticky marks on it). Then we proceeded to find many... More

As mentioned in other reviews these apartments are very convenient to what the Honeysuckle area has to offer. Its a short walk from the Civic railway station if you arrive by train. We caught the bus from... More

I often visit Newcastle for work and find that an apartment is preferable to a motel room. The Chifley was particularly convenient in the Honeysuckle area as I was attending a conference at Fort Scratchley. Being able to prepare a light meal in the kitchen area if you are sick of eating out, or to do a little washing in... More

I booked a one bedroom penthouse appartments. I checked into room 601 right outside is the rail line very noisy. Busy location so the noise is always present. The cost of over $200 per night is not worth the effort More

Stayed in a 1br apartment on business for 4 months straight, only drawback was the lack of dining options but the escape card deal with nearby restaurants took care of that. Staff were friendly to the point where my cleaner and myself knew each other on first name basis. A++ More

The Chifley in Newcastle is located in the new waterfront precinct. The rooms are comfortable, and staff is attentive. Rooms get serviced every three days, which creates a sense of privacy. Parking charges are over the top considering the amount of street parking available. More
