Reviews for Bathurst Explorers Motel

Review 1:Slow, slow...then no wifi available in my room, road transport noise as noticeable, but what really took the shine off my stay was a suspicious stain I noticed on the bed sheets as I was settling for the night. I did discuss the matter with the motel staff at Breakfast; at that time the laundry service were blamed, but I don't understand how it wasn't identified when the cleaners who made the bed and prepared the room. Fridge too tiny for the traveller.

Review 2:Super friendly staff, rooms freshly made over, great hot breakfast, able to accommodate my request for parking adjacent to the room

Review 3:After booking online and estimating a 10pm arrival time, no one answered the "after hours" phone. The office closed at 9pm. We had to try and find alternative accommodation

Review 4:Good cooked breakfast. Good showers. Staff very helpful. I was using Bathurst as a base to explore the region and found the location suitable. I couldnt walk into the CBD quickly which may present a problem to others. Easy to find. On a main hwy.

Review 5:This is an older motel, but with the renewed least on life with the rooms, I think they have achieved the best they can be. Room was small, but had everything we needed. Continental Breakfast that was on offer was terrific at a great price.

Review 6:Room was very small and it was awkward to sit on the toilet the way the dispenser was placed

Review 7:It was cheap, clean and fairly close to where we needed to be

Review 8:As above ,

Review 9:Being elderly and not really mobile I found the bed too high. Had great Difficultly getting in and out of bed And worried that I could fall out.

Review 10:Close to the main road out of Bathurst, so a fair bit of traffic noise. (we were in the room closest to the road, other rooms further back may be better)

Review 11:Comfortable bed. Good price deal through booking.com. One of the best motel showers I have experienced.

Review 12:The building is older, bathroom needs refurbishing. The TV was in an awkward spot.

Review 13:Staff were lovely and very accommodating. Bargain breakfast available. Room very spacious. Overall a very clean room. The price was great, value for money. Close to everything.

Review 14:Small budget room with Queen Bed, comfy and cosy. Beaut breakfast in B/fast room, both Continental and cooked. Yummy bacon and eggs. Away from town centre but a good location.

Review 15:Wifi practically non existent..Air conditioner very old and loud, up too high to reach...bathroom very tiny only one person can fit..

Review 16:Locality was good and close to town.

Review 17:The bathroom was a little dated, however for the price it was fine.

Review 18:I enjoy my stay, the staff were very kind and considerate. The appears of the room was warm and homely. The paint and carpet was very new and clean. The linen, bedding & furniture's were new clean. The over all lay out room was very usable. The parking was close just outside my door. Travelling on my own, the room and management made me feel safe.

Review 19:From the moment of arrival, staff couldn't do enough. Very friendly staff. The breakfast in the morning was extremely convenient and very affordable. Would definitely stay again.

Review 20:With pets it would have been easier in a downstairs room, but I forgot to ask.

Review 21:Staff opened breakfast room early for us and had our cooked breakfast on our table in less than 10 minutes so we wouldn't be late for Vetting our Cats for the Show. Very helpful with driving directions.

Review 22:Shower probably needs re-doing.

Review 23:Male staff member on arrival was lovely. Bed was comfortable which surprised us. Room was large enough for 4 people to accommodate overnight. Close enough to everything we needed in Bathurst.

Review 24:When i arrive the had not allocated me a ground floor room which I had asked for when I made the booking through you people.

Review 25:The breakfast was excellant along with the staff.

Review 26:Bathroom very basic and in poor repair - no hairdryer. Very noisy, children running out of control around the complex. At $100+ a night my expectations were higher

Review 27:Room was very small and cramped. No table and no chairs. Bathroom fittings straight out of the 1950s but no problem with cleanliness. Floorboards creak in upstairs units. I could hear people moving about in units on either side and they could hear me moving around on that floor

Review 28:Location close to Mt Panorama. Comfortable clean bedding.

Review 29:My only complaint was the noisy trucks, although they were not too frequent

Review 30:The hosts could not have been more obliging. The breakfast was excellent and the the room was clean and well maintained.

Review 31:No shampoo ,no soap holders in shower, Water runs out of shower area onto bathroom floor when having a shower, very dangerous if you don't lay down towels on floor

Review 32:Convenient to CSU and on major highway so easy to find

Review 33:I guess they are doing the place up but they need the help of professionals. There were a couple of dangerous things in the bathroom and it was annoying that there was no soap holder, you had to put your soap on the floor in the shower, they could have bought a cheap suction cup one for the time being. Very small room. Hard to shut bathroom door. Lock on front door was very iffy, the tongue was just catching into the catch. Lots of work to do and it will be ok for the money. But at the moment it is way overpriced

Review 34:The staff and the little restaurant

Review 35:I would have liked it to be a little closer to town, however, that is not enough to prevent me from staying there again.

Review 36:The room itself and the staff there were willing to help in any way at all. I had a lovely time though my stay was short. I will be using this motel again when I return to Bathurst later this year.

Review 37:Very nice homely atmosphere. Certainly no frills, but very clean and obviously well loved and cared for by the owners. Breakfast in the dining room was very nice.

Review 38:It was the coldest shower that we had ever experienced. Had the cold tap turned right off and there was no warmth in the water. I had to soap up and then jump under the shower to wash off. Very cold but invigorating I guess.

Review 39:Place was comfortable, clean and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Review 40:Comfortable beds, the family room was perfect size and we were very impressed by the high standard of cleanliness. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Review 41:Staff was caring and considerate. Went out of her way and was very helpful. Room was clean and bed was awesome. Location made it easy to get to my destination following morning. Would recommend and stay again.

Review 42:Lack of parking. One car/trailer took up 3 prime spots. Ended up on highway after going out at night. Can't complain of kids running up and down stairs but also animals on site. Room was small, but adequate. I would have thought $70 (budget) price rather than $90 would better reflect standard.

Review 43:Staff excellant and very friendly. Room clean & tidy

Review 44:Floorboards creaked in all parts of room.

Review 45:Staff were good. Breakfast was good. Obvious young owners are trying hard to upgrade the motel with bathrooms to be done shortly. Would be a good, cheap family motel

Review 46:Location was great, short drive into city centre, short drive to Mt Panorama track. Older motel but clean, comfortable bed and quiet even though on a main road.

Review 47:Friendly reception from the owner and the ability to park wherever I wanted, not in a room-designated space. The room was fresh and clean and sleep came easily.

Review 48:That there were no parking spots when I came back late each night and having to park on the street.

Review 49:The fact that you allow pets was fantastic.. I found it very quiet even though it was on a Main Street.

Review 50:A microwave would have been nice

Review 51:For the low price we had good clean rooms, nice beds and a comfortable room (twin room). Laid back atmosphere- would definitely stay here again

Review 52:some truck traffic at night but on the whole fairly quiet
