Reviews for Best Western Plus Edge Resort

Review 1:But house keeping did not do a proper job. Room was stuffy and not very clean. Sofa has a lingering sweat odor, balcony, dining table, BBQ Pit, fridge were greasy and dirty. Bathroom was well maintained. Dustbins overloaded. Property generally could need a refurbishment and upgrading.

Review 2:Friendly staff, great location and bright spacious rooms.

Review 3:We had an end room close to the road and found dirt under table and chairs, servicing seemed only to be fresh towels and bed made as the bathroom appeared untouched, it is picky as the room was far from dirty.

Review 4:Staff were very helpful and accomodating, overall a handy location. Meal was very nice at the restaurant. Would stay here again.

Review 5:I think we may have the least desirable room in the premises. It was the bottom floor room right next to the laundry and in the walkway to the swimming pool. There were no times of use of the laundry and people started to use it as early as 6.45am. There should be a clear policy about use of laundry if there are rooms located adjacent to it. Additionally, there were children living in the room upstairs and they were up and running around at 6am. I'm not sure why hotels don't realise that they should put kids on lower levels and singles/couples in quieter rooms. Not that hard to figure out! We were only staying for 1 night so we made do. I am always skeptical that if you get a good rate using travel websites like Booking.com that the rooms allocated will be the cheaper less desirable rooms. If this is the case, it should be made clear that you are paying less to get lesser value.

Review 6:The location of the hotel and services were great. We had the studio room and it was a good size.

Review 7:The rooms are a little tired, could do with a bit of refurbishing.

Review 8:Ideally located. Clean and tidy. Everything worked. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Review 9:There was moulds on the bathroom tiles . Hair in the bathtub.When we put the make up room sign the cleaner didn't even bother to sweep the floor or clean the tub. The rug was dirty

Review 10:The facility was nice and I loved having the option to cook in our apartment. The staff where friendly.

Review 11:Same room layout as other Edge resorts, with doors connecting the rooms through which you hear all your neighbours' noise. No views from most units apart from the next building.

Review 12:Within walking distance to the beach and services, though no views of the sea or river from the premises.

Review 13:Being told we had a free upgrade and being charged for it, not sure who is to blame Booking.com or the Resort , each blaming the other

Review 14:Clean well appointed, comfortable except for the pool heater noise at night as it was on the wall outside room 210, it was promptly fixed the second night

Review 15:Wasn't aware the room had no balcony. Pool had no shade. Breakfast service and food poor.

Review 16:Room was large and comfortable. Swimming pool heated, clean. Reception and cleaning staff friendly and professional.

Review 17:Professional and friendly staff. Spotlessly clean, most impressed with bathroom, everything spotless including the tile grouting. White bed and bathroom linen. Fantastic value for money. 10 out 10 would highly recommend.

Review 18:We would have preferred an oven over a not so clean BBQ and we really struggled with the cooking plates as there was no indication which one was on and if it was on high or low. The hair dryer in one of the bathroom literally exploded in my brother in law's hand and left a burn mark. This was fixed the same night and power was restored but I think it would have been nice to receive some sort of compensation or apology for the shock he got.

Review 19:The apartment was big with very clean and modern bathrooms. Well equipped and very comfortable.

Review 20:We ate at the restaurant and found the food very good. The service staff seemed disorganized (not checking drinks, no assigned tables, drinks very slow to come out) Newer staff had little guidance from senior members. For a restaurant that serves fine food I expected the staff to be in uniform. The uniforms worn on the night were very sloppy.

Review 21:The room was large, very clean and fresh. Parking was easily accessible.

Review 22:Restaurant closed on sundays in school holidays and long weekend not good enough Rooms average all on top of each other felt very boxed in.

Review 23:centrally located so walking distance to most things

Review 24:That our stay came to an end.

Review 25:Everything, I highly recommend it. The pool was solar heated, so lovely and warm. Our apartment had a bbq which meant we were self sufficient. We had one dinner at the Edge restaurant, the seafood platter... 10/10. Can't fault it.

Review 26:The accommodation was crowded in on the site. Windows looked out at walls across narrow footpaths. Air-conditioner motor from the adjacent unit was right outside our windows - noisy when trying to sleep. Had to keep windows closed.

Review 27:Location. Could walk to most essential services.

Review 28:No provision for breakfast as they had two coaches. We would have had to wait 1+ hours for breakfast. Ditto for dinner the previous evening, Everything was for coaches and we were referred to a fisherman's bar for dinner!

Review 29:Room was clean and well fitted, even to iron and board.

Review 30:Breakfast a little chaotic with coach party in at same time and poor layout when busy

Review 31:Convenient position, near waterfront and various eating options nearby

Review 32:There was a power failure but no touch or candles was provided for the guests in the room or even a led nite light will help especially the older folks.

Review 33:Would have expected some cleaning, not just the replacement of the towels every day (that is not hugely important).

Review 34:The apartment was well appointed and well equipped with everything one would need even for a longer stay. The barbeque on the terrace is a good addition.

Review 35:The bed was so hard it was like sleeping on the floor. Cooking facilities could have been a bit more substantial.

Review 36:The restaurant - especially the seafood platter for two which was also great value.

Review 37:Can't really say anything bad. The restaurant can get booked out if they have coach parties staying, so book a table before hand if you want to eat in the hotel. Food pleasant enough.

Review 38:Very happy with the accommodation choice - stayed in a studio room. Clean, modern and warm, with comfy beds and a very good (and big!) shower. Staff friendly and welcoming. Would definitely stay here again and happy to recommend it.

Review 39:Very minor points. We couldn't find the plug for the basin in the bathroom, the kitchen knife provided was light and not good for cutting vegetables but these are vastly outweighed by the good points above.

Review 40:Great barbecue and kitchen equipment. Bath and laundry were huge and only the sound of the sea could be heard.

Review 41:Breakfast buffet- bacon cold &only scrambled egg available at 9am, guest laundrybelow standard, fresh towels had not been properly washed

Review 42:,Evening meal friendly & helpful staff

Review 43:The hot plate controls have had the markings cleaned off making it nearly impossible to know where to switch it on and off. This is a possible fire hazard!

Review 44:Good convenient location with above average accommodation

Review 45:Parking is alittle crowded at times when its full. We had some neighbours on the 2nd night upstairs that is dragging chairs with noises. Still a great place to stay.

Review 46:We stayed 2 nights in Edge resort. The 1 bedroom apartment was clean, bed is really comfy and best the aircon warmer in the living and bedroom works perfectly good for cold nights. It is spacious and we had great time staying.

Review 47:Poor WiFi connection. If they are going to advertise free WiFi as a value add, I think they need to maintain a good quality of service. WIFI was useless to me as it would drop out too frequently, I just ended up using my 3g connection.

Review 48:Great location, just a couple of minutes walk to the beach and river. Loved the spa and kings bed.

Review 49:After dinner we found there was no hot water in our unit. We complained to bar staff, reception closed, and on site manager told us it could not be fixed and without apology or offer of help, said we could have another unit some distance away. Too difficult to move. When we complained next morning, the full fee for our night was refunded which was more than generous.

Review 50:Appropriate, if somewhat delayed response, to absence of hot water in our unit. Current management were to leave at the end of the week of our stay and property up for sale. So cannot predict future.

Review 51:the couch was super uncomfortable and was not at all cleaned properly with food and crumbs in the seams.

Review 52:Our unit was awesome. 2 Massive rooms. Both with own bathrooms. Shared living was great but one room was also fully self contained with was great for our 2 older kids

Review 53:It was the first time we had stayed there, we were very impressed with the room being spacious, comfortable and having everything we needed. The staff were always helpful if we needed anything. Thankyou we will be back.

Review 54:Not near the beach / river / sea. No views. The kitchenette was very basic - really only the addition of a sink to what you would find in any motel room. No hot-plates, for example. The name "studio" similarly is an exaggeration because it's just a motel room with a sink.

Review 55:Clean, comfortable, well-organised. Excellent Wi-Fi (unusual for this coast). Reasonable value compared to some places we stayed on this trip.

Review 56:Inconsistent wi-fi, no TV in bedroom of spa suite.

Review 57:Spacious and clean adjoining rooms (two-bedroom apartment with spa suite), balcony and BBQ, laundry in roomy bathroom, dishwasher, tidy grounds - lived up to expectations and more.

Review 58:Nothing. Will definitely recommend this place to friends.

Review 59:No hassle check in and check out. Clear directions to rooms. Friendly and helpful staffs. Had a pleasant stay.

Review 60:We went during winter and the heating system for the water wasn't working very well which led to many freezing cold baths.

Review 61:It was perfect for 2 couples as there was a huge common area and we could have our own private barbecue!

Review 62:Our executive spa suite was huge and well appointed with everything you would need minus an oven, which wasn't missed. The room was great value and if we find ourselves in Kalbarri again we would stay here again without hesitation.

Review 63:Had to ask twice for a plug to the bathroom sink.

Review 64:Pick up and drop off to the Bus, and a complimetry breakfast on departure.Gone beyond the call of duty.A1.service,Thankyou

Review 65:Depending on where the room is facing, the skate park across the road may become noisy on the weekend at wee hours of the morning. It can't be helped. Bring ear plugs. Not a detraction from Best Western.

Review 66:It's room is spacious, clean and modern. The kitchenette is actually a kitchenette and not some crockery shoved in a cupboard! Nicely done Best Western. I'll be back again.

Review 67:We were pretty annoyed to find out when we went to dinner on Wednesday that the advertised buffet which we booked only two days previously was cancelled.We were not told of this beforehand and after perusing the menu did not find anything that took our fancy. The electric cooktop was not working and the bbq had very little gas.

Review 68:Lovely comfortable bed ,proximity to main street and overall cleanliness.

Review 69:Stayed for a week room serviced each day with towels toiletries and bed made but bathroom and toilet especially was not cleaned in that time I really feel needs to be done at least every second day.

Review 70:Bed was so nice. BBQ in private verandah with view spa was lovely really enjoyed ourselfs comfy couch and living area

Review 71:Both me and partner had slight body ache after sleeping on the bed.Kitchen is not a full kitchen. We ended up having to cook with the grillby the swimming pool as our room doesn't come with 1. The grill wasdirty and there wasn't any taps nearby for us to wash it. We had totake aluminium sheets from the reception which closes at 7pm. So we haveto make sure we cook before that.

Review 72:Friendly restaurant staff. Spacious room and shower.

Review 73:Only thing if staying longer would have liked to have a oven to cook, especially if you have children.

Review 74:Love the apartment . Ideal with two rooms . also modern.

Review 75:Ran a Chinese theme night in restaurant without relevant catering expertise. Quality of food was poor and over priced.

Review 76:General cleanliness of property.

Review 77:If I had to pick one thing, it would be the food, but it wasn't bad, just not as good as the rest of the resort.

Review 78:The staff were very friendly, in particular, Hannah and Diane. Made a great welcome after a long drive. Extremely helpful and accomodating.

Review 79:The restaurant lacked a range of gluten free options. Other dinning establishments in Kalbarri had a good selection. The breakfast was lacking in selection and the night time menu was very poof.

Review 80:Great Staff, wonderful rooms - very clean and comfortable.

Review 81:The BBQ on the balcony was old and didn't work well. Come equipped to deal with the flies if there is an easterly blowing.

Review 82:Enjoyed Kalbarri and the sights. The suite was comfortable, clean and equipped ok. The pool was very welcome.

Review 83:Nothing I don't like about this place!

Review 84:Two bedroom apartments are fantastic to keep kids amused and out of your space. Lovely warm pool and friendly staff.

Review 85:No sky tv although paid for it didn't work,very bad internet connection although this was free and very important to us.Breakfast buffet at weekend was nearly cold.

Review 86:The lovely man who maintains the place and was so friendly,should give lessons to the other staff.

Review 87:Cannot park in front of, or even close to my room. The distance is not far, but that's what you expect from a motel.

Review 88:Just minutes walk to the "CBD" of Kalbarri Very good wifi

Review 89:We had rain in the night and the water dropping down the drain pipe was very noisey we had to sleep in the lounge with the door shut.

Review 90:It's a nice place good facilities

Review 91:2 tiny windows no view. Air con too strong and controls not understood. No covers to ceiling lights electrically unsafe. Huge gaps in fly screens and bitten alive. No notice taken of our vegetarian request. We were strategically put in the worst location of complex

Review 92:Nothing

Review 93:The "gym" was a joke. There were two pieces of poor equipment in a metal shed.

Review 94:Pool was clean but quite small. Staff was helpful and friendly.

Review 95:We loved the location of our room within the complex we were next to the pool which was pleasantly warm and very clean. The reception staff were lovely and couldn't do any better. I was extremely pleased with this complex.

Review 96:The flights of stairs. Have to stay in the ground floor rooms next time.

Review 97:Great Room. Spacious, clean and bright. Close to the pubs, fish and chops and the beach.

Review 98:The service The daily room 'clean' was a waste of time and generally more of a inconvenience. Bin was rarely removed, no surfaces were wiped down, used soaps etc sat there for a week. We can do all those things easy enough, definitely to a higher standard, so I was left wondering why I bothered paying a very high premium for a 'service' apartment. Take my advice, save the $100/night and get a self-contained apartment somewhere else in kalbarri. Parking is also a joke! Could never get a spot near our apartment, especially annoying when we were checking in with heaps of stuff to unload - there should be 1 assigned bay per apartment - if you have 2 cars park the 2nd one in the main car park. First time we have been disappointed with Best Western - usually pretty reliable

Review 99:Nice large apartment Private BBQ with patio a bonus Wifi was generally good Bed was comfortable Air con was good

Review 100:Having booked two rooms together for us and kids we were put in rooms at opposite ends of the hotel on different floors. At first manageress accused us of not making single booking for family and then accepted she was wrong, then claimed we were stupid for not drawing it to their attention that one room was booked for kids, which again she stood corrected and at end of day suggested it was our fault. At $350/night per room you'd expect better.....a lot better.

Review 101:Food was good

Review 102:This was our third stay in Kalbarri, and our best accommodation so far. Lovely, spacious two bed apartment for the whole family. Clean, well appointed and very comfortable. Staff were friendly and accommodating. We will stay again on our next visit.

Review 103:Would recommend this resort to anyone. Great friendly staff always willing to help. Ended up asking for an extra night and it wasn't a problem for them - they made it work. Would stay here again!

Review 104:wi fi very poor.resaurant great food not much of a selection to choose from

Review 105:excellent location close to beach ..very clean..would recommend kalbarrie edge.

Review 106:kitchen facility not good enough for a family who have to cook for a child with food allergies. disappointed no oven or adequate bench space to prepare meals. when it was advertised as an apartment I did not expect a kitchenette don't believe this place should be rated 4 &1/2 stars gym was poor and front line receptionist not friendly or helpful poor customer service. I will revisit Kalbarri just not edge resort.

Review 107:The bed was comfortable,and cleaners were brilliant and friendly.

Review 108:As a couple celebrating 29 years of marriage we expected to be able to talk at normal voice levels and listen to some music at normal levels in the afternoon. We did not expect to be called by reception at 5pm having only arrived 30 minutes prior and told to turn the music down as a complaint had been made by the people next door. Ridiculous!!! Definitely not loud, and certainly an invasion of our privacy at an early evening hour. Disappointed at staff actions. Spoilt our anniversary. Thanks Edge, Not,!!!

Review 109:Having stayed at the Edge several times in the past facilities were Comfortable as in the past, clean and tidy, with quality linen.

Review 110:I didn't stay there as when I arrived to check in they had no rooms available. Very disappointed! The reason I went to Kalbarri was to stay @ the resort!

Review 111:We had the ground floor room and had guests in the up stairs unit. And the noise sounded like they were doing renovations alnight then decided to have a spa bath at 11:30pm the noise was bad. Then it all stated again at 06:00 in the morning

Review 112:Lay out was good

Review 113:Room close to pool. Woken by squealing kids in the pool. No privacy. Two single beds passed together to make a king bed. Corner spa tiny. Restaurant closed on a Sunday. Pool too small

Review 114:Room. Decor Location Friendly staff.

Review 115:A couple of things in the room were poorly designed/layed out with the microwave directly above the sink and a bin directly in front of the cupboards. Also no lift to take heavy items up to the room floors. The flow of the bistro area didn't work either, there was a lot of people in for breakfast at the time and the layout of the room could not cater for all the people. They also ran out of eggs.

Review 116:The bed and room were comfortable. The pool area was nice.

Review 117:It was a tad noisy ...but I have stayed here before and not heard others so it was just noisy people above us dragging chairs

Review 118:Love how close it is to shops and to the river

Review 119:The continental breakfast in the restaurant was fairly poor. The 'gym' facilities were definitely over-advertised for just a shed. Towels could do with a refresh, as could the very aged television and digital facilities - but these are all fairly minor.

Review 120:The location was fantastic - a very short walk to the main strip and set back from the roads so there's no traffic noise. No sound from adjoining apartments. Lovely and clean, very comfortable home-away-from-home apartment. The staff were friendly, the restaurant food was absolutely delicious.

Review 121:Super location just off the main street with easy access to the beach. Nice apartment with all the facilities you need - everything worked and it was all nicely done. Very comfortable bed. Staff were friendly and helpful and the hotel's restaurant was also very good. Would be happy to recommend this to others.

Review 122:Wi-Fi wouldn't work, so we just accessed it through our own I-phones

Review 123:Great location & facilities All staff friendly and airstrip complimentary pick-up was much appreciated. Restaurant staff very good & excellent food.

Review 124:Be careful when using the washing machine. We couldn't open the door (with our clothes inside) until the maintenace guy helped us in the morning.

Review 125:If we had more time we would have stayed longer. Realy nice location.

Review 126:The website boasted a all year round heated swimming pool, however the pool was freezing, and when I queried this with staff at reception, they were quite rude, pointing out that the pool was solar heated and seeing as it was winter the pool wouldn't get any warmer than it was. My main reason for booking this resort was the heated pool.

Review 127:Big room with great facilities and close to everything.

Review 128:Gladly no bad experiences here.

Review 129:The location was excellent, it was very clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend it.

Review 130:Noise from the people upstairs, very inconsiderate, and considering the price, one would have expected a complimentary breakfast

Review 131:The hospitality and the restaurant food

Review 132:Wifi was terrible needs to be upgraded

Review 133:Clean, modern ,spacious with great staff to back it all up . Chefs burgers were the best !!!!!

Review 134:Having to drag luggage up stairs

Review 135:Nice and clean
