This hotel is very close to the town centre. The rooms are clean and comfortable . The bistro is very convenient and the meals we have chosen have been delicious but probably a bit large. The cost is manageable.is out go to happy lace.

Cheap, off season, good cheap meals 4 nights specials, lift there but old and very slow. No off street parking, no en suite in room, not a big problem in off season, with few guests but it could be in high season. Getting bags to room was a struggle, no trolley or allocated help.

Love the updated rooms with ensuite. Beds comfortable and clean. Good menu in the bistro and also the convenience of not having to go anywhere else for dinner after a long day of travelling. Staff very friendly as well.

Great room & service
Were given a big QS room, room 1 on the back verandah. Check in quick, efficient, friendly. Room clean, good condition, great bathroom with nice brand shampoo, conditioner & wash. Good quality nice smelling towels and a very comfortable bed. Coffee, tea, milk, sugar & cookies provided. A little noise from downstairs till about 21.00 hrs but after that so quiet. Staying on a Sunday might be different from Friday night though.... Great price for a great room close to everything. Will stay again

A very comfortable and clean room. Surprisingly quiet despite pub music playing and situated on a main road. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Would definitely be my choice for accomodation in Forster again.

The room presents well with a nice bathroom, however the aircon was set to a low thermostat and came on intermittently, when the room temperature was about 15 degrees cold. No doona or blanket so it was freezing and unpleasant.
