Lithgow Motor Inn

The property was convenient Noisey You could hear every sound from the managers above and other rooms The other rooms were mostly occupied by tradies so when their alarms went off they woke everyone The garbage wasn’t emptied or towels replaced Toilet paper on arrival hadn’t been replaced with new roll roll from previous tenant still on holder No sugar Shower was nice

Room service started bashing on doors at 7am on a Sunday morning to take rooms up when checkout wasnt until 10am. Made enough noise to wake everyone staying there up.

Very tired motel. Saggy bed, not very clean and limited servicing. Fine for a cheap bed as passing through but would not recommend a stay for any longer

Great place and value!

If you are looking for cheap and clean then this is the place for you. Rooms are standard walk up rooms. Nothing flash. Tea and coffee making facilities. Small fridge. Comfy bed Bathroom had good shower but there was no shower gel provided. Also there were no face washers available. We ran out of toilet paper after reception closed so couldn’t get more. Fortunately we carry a roll in the car. Would probably look at other options next time.

We recently stayed in Lithgow. I pulled into the Parkside. First mistake. The women at the counter, I found rude. We arrived at our room ant found that it was tiny. The fridge on the floor was turned off and half of the lights didn't work. The restaurant was closed because of staff shortages so no food. Although was a KFC across the road. Terrible nights sleep. Beds terrible.!!!! In the morning our daughter was a bit slow getting ready. We received a visit by the same women who I take it is the boss. Telling us that check out was10am. The time was 10.15am. Quite rude as seems to be the case in other reviews. We left here shaking our heads and feeling ripped. Never again.

Checking in at 4pm on a Saturday was clearly a huge imposition for the extremely grumpy motel manager. Her manner was nothing less than rudely abrupt. With virtually only us and one other couple in the whole motel she decided that room six would be ours, right opposite the stop lights on the busy Great Western Highway. Very reluctantly she changed our room to a quieter one around the back of the complex when we insisted this was not good enough as we had requested a deluxe room. The tiny, closet of a room, with one of the beds 20cm from the bathroom door, was a bit of a surprise. The miniature fridge on the floor, (switched off of course) is really only for use by an agile, well-limbered acrobat and most of the inside compartments were missing so you couldn’t really put much in it. Lighting was nothing short of hideous with one of ‘nanna’s’ old lamps and/or a lovely white bright fluorescent tube streaking across the ceiling. There was nowhere to put bags except in a small so called walk-in wardrobe with no light. One of our bags was so close to the front door we had to move it around to enter and exit. This was the most hideous and tiniest room we have stayed in for a very long time. As another reviewer commented, ‘we had to go outside to change our mind’. So very accurate and we were checked into this nightmare for two long nights. We decided to do some research on the internet to find a nice eating spot. For those who remember dial up wifi, you’ll feel very nostalgic in this place. We were lucky if a page was fully loaded every ten minutes. We left to go for brunch and thought the cleaners might arrive to refresh towels and straighten bed linen. Nobody ventured near our room and all was as we left it when we returned at 5pm. On a more positive note the bathroom had been recently renovated and worked quite well. However, the groaning and scraping of the sliding door between the rooms was a real winner when trying to quietly relieve oneself in the dead of night. Some things in this motel could be forgiven but, considering the managers attitude, the size of the room, the lack of internet service, we will never return. Do yourself a favour and stay elsewhere.
