Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Had the pleasure of a one night stay at this Motel while heading north out of Sydney.
Great location on the northern outskirts of that City and close to the M1.
Motel room was clean and comfortable. Staff friendly and obliging - check in process quick and efficient.
If you need to get food or similar there are small shopping areas a short drive to the north (Berowra) or south (Mount Colah). However the Motel does have an onsite food option. There is a Restaurant area but this is no longer in operation. Instead a Menu is provided to your Room listing meals available and prices. Once ordered it is brought to your Room and when finished just leave plates etc outside door and staff collect.
On my visit I took advantage of the Menu and the meal was EXCELLENT!
In summary - a great Motel for a short stay with a location that gets you out of the Sydney traffic chaos and on the M1 quickly without the stress.

We stayed one night at this motel as part of a road trip. It’s a small motel on the busy Pacific Highway. It has an Asian influence both in reception and the grounds and has a kitchen that delivers Chinese food to the room. Apparently it’s very good!

Our room was tiny but we knew that when booking. It had a Queen and single bed but the friendly guy at reception said it would be $10 extra to use the single bed. That was OK as we had only booked a Queen.

The bathroom was really small. 3m x 1m. It would be difficult for a large person to navigate.

The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, the wifi was good and although small, the room was more than adequate for one night. We could park the car right outside our door. There was a microwave which is not mentioned in the room details.

We heard hardly any noise from the Highway in room 6 close to back of property.

We were happy with our stay.

Traditional motel. Can drive up in front of door.

Standard hotel room, all very clean, also had a table and bench to eat / work at.

No restaurant, but does 'room service' Chinese dinner. Delicious and huge serving.

Breakfast is also delivered to your room.

My purpose for staying there was to meet up with friends from Sydney and leave for Tamworth the next day. The Motel is an older style motel but has been very well kept and it's cleanliness impressive. On arriving I was greeted very warmly something lacking these days and check-in was with a minimum of fuss. As I did not want to travel for my evening meal I opted for the dine-in option that the motel offers and was greeted on time and hot and a large T'Bone that I had ordered. The room was adequate, clean, comfortable and warm. All in all providing what I had hoped for and a restful night waking to a freh morning all be it wet for my meet up and ride to Tamworth. Thankyou for a great stay.

Simple motel at a very good price as I was given a room the size of a small house. Comfortable bed and plenty of hot water, not too much traffic noise , had a full sized kitchen as well as a couple of Foxtel channels .
Chinese meals were also available.
Good stopover point.

Last minute booking and very pleasantly surprised. It has the look and feel of a very old style country motel. From the bedding and toilet amenities to the cups and saucers. The locks on the door was an actual key!

There was plenty of space, everything worked (A/C, TV, kettle etc), everything was comfortable, parking was easy, checking in/out was simple.

We didn't get to try the restaurant or room service. We had a very good night's sleep.

A friend and I spent a night at the Mt Kuringai Motel and were pleasantly surprised by how lovely it was. The older style motels sometimes can be quite dated, which doesn’t bother me, but sometimes they can smell like they are pretty old too. Not the case at the Mt Kuringai Motel. Everything was spotlessly clean and fresh. Reception staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable. I was in room 14 which was in the building next door, and at the back so it was quiet. Would happily stay there again

We arrived at 11pm and left in the dark at 6.30 am.
It has all the traveller needs. It was clean and adequate for us as all we needed was a bed. While it sounded noisy outside from the nearby freeway once ssleep we were able to enjoy a restful night.
Being located on the northern fringe of Sydney it meant we missed a lot of holiday traffic by getting ahead of others.
At $108 it was excellent value.

Stayed here for one night on a road trip from Brisbane to Canberra. Arrived at 8pm and left at 7am. Greeted by lovely owner Amy. Easy check in and host was very chatty and accomodating. Very clean, comfortable and suitable for a nights stay on a road trip. Very affordable price. Room decor was outdated, but this didn’t matter - beds were comfy, nice shower and water pressure and we had great night sleep. Quiet too. Would go back! Thanks Amy.

Booked this last minute after flying into Sydney at 9pm. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Bedding was comfortable and clean and shower had great pressure. Would definitely stay here again. Decor may be dated but wouldn’t deter a return visit.
