Dated but clean

3.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 8 May 2019
I stayed here for 4 nights while working in Muswellbrook. The rooms are large and clean but are dated. Plenty of out door parking. I had a room in the back of the motel which was good as I think the front one's would be noisy as the Highway is just out the front. The price was more than the room was worth, but Muswellbrook accommodation is overpriced. The onsite restaurant was not open during my stay and there isn't may close by.

We stayed overnight in Musswellbrook at The Hermitage. The room was outdated and tired looking but it was clean and contained good facilities. Plenty of coffee, tea and sugar; iron and board; hairdryer; toiletries; wifi; airconditioning. The linen was clean and the bed comfortable. The price was reasonable and the location was good. The room decor could benefit from an update but this is no doubt costly. I would stay again if I traveled back this way.

Family of 4 stayed overnight en route to Devils Ark in Barrington Tops. Room was very clean if not a tad crampt for a family of 4. The air con took about 10 mins to start blowing cold and even then it took ages to cool down the room. Very small niggle. We used the pool which was tepid but most welcome on a 43 degree day. Staff very friendly as well. Seems to be popular for workies due to amount of utes in the car park but it was very quiet indeed. The 9j site restaurant was closed so we drive up to the local RSL which was very nice indeed. Again, extremely friendly and the prices were very reasonable.

I'd definitely recommend The Hermitage for that overnight stay.

The above isn't meant as a critism, but is rather a statement of fact in our opinion.

The room prices at this Motel are cheap ($99) by comparison with other, more modern establishments in town.

However the rooms are clean and comfortable, if a little dated and the worse for wear - probably as a consequence of the main clientele; the high-viz brigade.

The on-site "Awana" Singapore & Malaysian Restaurant and the Golf Club around the corner is a bonus.

As others have suggested, book early.

This is a comfortable motel which is often fully booked so you need to book early. The beds are very nice for sleeping. The bathrooms are older and could do with some updating, but all devices work well.

Reviewed 17 July 2018

We stayed here on our way thru and it was a nice little hotel. We had a bottom room with king bed, which was very good. The room was pleasant and clean. Had everything you need for the one or two nights, good value for the price. the best part is the shower unreal pressure and hot water galore. It is located at the other end of town but the Local RSL bus came to pick us up and drop us off so that was a bonus. We stayed in July so it was very cold and the air con was great kept us warm all night.
