Top Swan Bay Hotel Reviews

NOAH'S On The Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Noah's is great. I was upgraded to a sea view room and it couldn't have been better. Lovely room with plenty of clothes storage, good choice of food at breakfast, dinner in the restaurant was great too. There's a laundry room available for those of us who are travelling and plentiful parking too. Highly recommend 👌"

ibis Newcastle

10/10 Excellent

"great spot, close to everything you need. Park, Beach, restaurants, pubs and clubs."

Little National Hotel Newcastle

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing communal work/lounge spaces. Comfortable, high-tech pod-style rooms with quality fixtures and fittings. Deliciously comfortable bed. Not thrilled about 35 dollar nightly fee to park in their own building, but I guess that is the way things are going...."

Ingenia Holidays One Mile Beach

8/10 Good

"We hired the budget cabin. It was well presented and the double bed was comfortable. The only negative is the bunk beds were tiny. We had our 12 year old who is not on the tall side and he just fit in the bed. The resort had lots of options for kids, and the staff were very nice. A great place for families."

The Executive Inn

8/10 Good

"Great pools for families and non families. Location was 10 minutes drive from Honeysuckle dock which was easy. The club next door had an indoor babies and toddler play area too"

The Gateway Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The same thing I dont like everytime at this hotel is also the only thing I ever have to complain about @ The Gateway Inn... & thats when I have to leave. (Sad Face) I just love this place, the staff are so wonderful & are always happy to go the extra mile yet so modestly & kindly make you feel like nothing is a bother or too much to accomodate in their efforts to show that you're valued as a customer & feel welcomed like a family friend. The vibe is like a big safe warm hug. The rooms provided are generous in space, ameneties are varied & top notch & the customer service extended is of international standards. And No I wasn't promised anything to say all these great things about the Gateway, but Ive tried the rest & dont even have to guess you'll be impressed- by the Best Hotel in town!!"

Holiday Inn Express Newcastle by IHG

10/10 Excellent

Peninsula Nelson Bay Motel and Serviced Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"I had a great stay. The staff were friendly, the room was clean, and the beds were comfortable. I can definitely recommend this place, whether you’re staying for just one night or maybe a bit longer. The TV in the room even had streaming services available."
