As a family we are very fussy where we stay, but the Saltbush Moter Inn is a great place to stay in Hay. The service was brillant good old fashion aussie hospitalty, who makes you feel very welcomed. The room was very clean and very comfortable, the location was brillant, right in the heart of town on the main street, as the motel is on the northside on the town, it was a very easy 5min walk to the other side of town and mind you very safe, with an added bonus of an IGA supermarket across the road, thats open from 7am. The room itselve was very nice, clean and very comfortable, the bed was super comfortable. Our whole experience at the Saltbush Moter Inn was a brilliant one. Plus my daughter was very a happy when she found that Paul Hogen stayed at the same motel while shooting the film Charlie and Boots.

A lovely pleasant and functional room. A great location right in the middle of town. Its probably the second best motel stay I have had in country NSW.

The free wifi works really well.

I noticed some of the other reviewers mention noise. The walls between the rooms have reasonable sound insulation, they are not paper thin. I would imagine the neighbours would disturb you if they had a party or a domestic dispute, but otherwise you would need super sensitive hearing to be bothered by the neighbouring rooms.

The motel is well designed to minimise noise, however it is on the main road. Despite the 50khm zone outside the large b-double trucks still can make their presence felt, however this would only bother the most sensitive sleepers. I slept fine with the window wide open.

Excellent room & a friendly welcome after a long day of travelling. Would definitely recommend. Stayed at the Nicholas Royal Motel on our trip over & for a similar price get a much better room & very comfortable bed at the Saltbush.

My boyfriend and I had the pleasure of staying at the Saltbush Motor Inn in July en route to Broken Hill. We had the most wonderful time and couldn't wait to stay there a second night on the return journey!

The location is central, in walking distance to everything! Despite being on the main street, it was very quiet! The staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly. They were happy to suggest where to eat, places to visit and could even recommend the best roads to take on our trip. On both occassions the rooms were immaculate, warm and smart. There was a wet bar and dining table, a mirrored cupboard, a flat screen TV with Austar, an excellent reverse cycle heater/aircon and free Wifi. The shower was amazing - infact I would have paid the full tarrif just for that shower! We also particularly loved the cooked breakfasts - the best eggs I've had in a long time (and great value for money!)

We would recommend the Saltbush Motor Inn to anyone travelling to/through Hay! It's without a doubt the best motel we've ever staying in (internationally!) and has set a very high standard for our future road trips! Looking forward to staying there again in the future.
