Just spent the weekend in Gulgong for a friend's sons 18th birthday, and stayed at Goldfields Motor Inn. It was immaculate, spacious, comfortable, quiet and homey. It is full of old country charm, and air-conditioned. Hosts were friendly and welcoming, and everything I imagined country hospitality to be. We forgot to put our breakfast orders in, so I can't tell you about that, but what I can tell you is the menu was amazing and extremely well priced. There are complimentary condiments in the kitchen, as well as an unbelievably well stocked mini bar with the best prices you will see anywhere! The bathroom was spacious, but if I had to pick one bad thing about the place, it would be the shower is on the small side. But if that's all I can say that is bad, then that's nothing at all! We have already booked our next stay there!

Don't let the neglected drive up appearance put you off. We arrived to find our room pre-heated (Yes, it gets cold in Gulgong!) our fridge stocked with milk (real) bread, condiments, and very reasonable bar prices for drinks etc. We booked a family room and found extra pillows, warm blankets and electric blankets for each bed as well as an extra heater in the second bedroom. The bathroom was well stocked with towels, and toiletries, in fact, much better than the Novotel I had recently stayed in! The kitchen was well stocked with all the equipment you'd need. And then there were the breakfasts! $9.00 was the most expensive for a huge cooked breakfast, with eggs done to perfection. Our hosts were excellent and made our stay very pleasant. Lovely country atmosphere, and so quiet at night.

Country motels are mostly much of a muchness. We were pleasantly surprised with this hotel. Hosts were charming. Rooms are huge, clean, dark at night, and very quiet. Complimentary tea/coffee/toast/condiments in the morning were perfect for our early morning get-away. Good value for money.
