Kiama Motel 617

Kiama

Very rude reception (like we inconvenienced them by staying there) showed up at 6:15pm. No recs for dinner when we asked. Broken soap dispenser in bathroom, fluorescent overhead light like grade school, ripped chairs, chipped furniture, plastic towel hanger on back if bathroom door broken, Prior ratings seem fake. Used Trip Advisor recs for entire 3 week trip in Australia and this was worst and most expensive motel by far. All other TripAdvisor ratings were very accurate

Low Grade Motel for High Grade Price

We stayed here for 1 night as we went to the Winter Festival at the winery. Could not fault our room or the lady who booked us in. We were in the 2 bedroom apartment, which was super modern, very clean & tidy in a great location.
Could not recommend this Motel enough.
Thank you will definitely stay again & recommend to family & friends.

Super modern, clean apartment

I had a booking with this hotel which was cancelled due to Covid and I was given a voucher to use for a future booking.  On attempting to now book, the new owner refused the voucher of over $300 and then also wanted a cancellation fee of over $400. This came about when he tried to take the full hotel fee 3 days before arrival, even though we had clicked 'pay on arrival' at checkout. We rung the hotel to query the payment and upon being told they would not honour the voucher, tried to cancel which was refused hence the $400 fee. The owner "Dino" yelled at my son-in-law & threatened him with legal action!!!  I am absolutely appalled.  Having used Hotels.com and Expedia all over the world for hotels, I have never come across this rudeness and blatant attempt at dredging money from a client.  It seems that there is no redress in this situation and the voucher is useless.  The lesson - do not accept a voucher as legally the money should have been refunded in the first place.

Shady owner!

The Motel was clean, bright and cosy. We arrived late afternoon the sun was shining through our window which made it very warm and cosy. 
Could not fail the cleanliness and the morning shower was hot and great water pressure. If we pass through this way again, this is where we will stay

A must stay

We stayed here for 1 night recently and it was very good.
Service was friendly and efficient and provided some local information. The room clean and comfortable, with good amenities. The location is a short drive from the centre of town and our room was nice and quiet.

Nice motel

The motel 617, is a short walk out if town but well worth it, great value for money, rooms excellent, clean, linen and towels good quality,shower room good, facilities good, microwave, toaster, kettle and tea and coffee supplied, staff very friendly and efficient, told all my Australian family about it and would highly recommend it.

Excellent value for money

A motel that has had a freshen up but roughly.. Had toaster and microwave which was great. although close to beach no pool and reception has limited hours. Office were excellent in making sure we had key code prior to our arrvial late afternoon.

A brief stayover

We booked this place last minute and in the middle of school holidays, so we paid a little bit extra for it, which is understandable. 

The motel is located a short (walking) distance from beach and town, but far enough away that you aren’t in the middle of the hustle and bustle.

The staff were friendly. 

The room we were in was a bit small and the bathroom could do with a bit of a renovation, however, it was clean and certainly liveable for the few days we stayed.  

Motel was clean, other than some dust on the exhaust fan in the bathroom. 

When the rooms were ‘made up’ for the day, they lacked detail. The bed was made but sheets still scrunched up underneath. The complimentary tea and coffee wasn’t replenished and the bathrooms not wiped over and floors not vacuumed. I accept these are minor, however, for the price we paid, I would expect this to be a standard daily clean. Nonetheless, when staff were approached for fresh towels or some more tea and coffee, they happily provided them. 

Free parking out the front of the rooms.

Overall, good, reasonably tidy motel.

Good motel

Stayed 3 nights at the Motel, good price for Kiama as most places are rather expensive. 
Short walk to town and very easy to get to as well as is the blow hole, light house area. 
Great parking with plenty of room between parking bays. 
Very clean rooms and updated shower area. 
Would not hesitate to stay hear on my next visit. 


Good value 

Upon arrival the reception had lots of food options available for purchase if needed, which was a nice touch. Very friendly staff. The room was a decent size and clean. The bathroom was great, it had recently been renovated so was spotless with a good water pressure in the shower which is usually hard to come by in motels! A great location, within a short drive to any restaurants/cafes/attractions around Kiama. Great value for money for a short stay.
