The Belmore Apartments Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location and perfect for a weekend away"

Harp Hotel

8/10 Good

"We were only staying one night as we went to the Wollongong Entertainment Centre for a show. The Harp is literally a 3 minute walk to the venue. There were also lots of great food places open afterwards. The accommodation has recently been refurbished and whilst it’s not flash by any means, for accommodation attached to a pub it was much better than we expected. I was prepared for it to have the old stale beer, musty carpet smells but it actually smelt great! Whatever they use is awesome - fresh and clean! Check in was painless, apart from the $200 deposit I know won’t be back in my bank account for probably two weeks, and 4 women having to walk through the main bar area with our luggage (and pillows 😩😂) to check in was a bit daunting. The room we stayed in had a queen bed and two singles and it was really well presented with little boards for each of us with toiletries, and there were plenty of options for coffee and tea as well as individually wrapped biscuits, a decent sized fridge and tv with most local and cable channels. The room was very clean as was the bathroom and there was a big shower, with plenty of clean fresh towels. The tap on the basin was barely hanging in there - extremely loose and wobbly but it was functioning 😂. The outside area was really clean and well organised for a pub! All the kegs and pallets were neatly stacked, away from the seating - of which there was plenty. Free parking in a private carpark. We’d definitely stay there again!"
