Disappointment

The bedroom was lovely. I wasn't pleased that a member of staff helped themselves to my drink in the room. After bringing this to the attention of the duty manager, they apologised and offered us complimentary breakfast. I looked forward to the breakfast as a token of apology, however, for a 5 star hotel, i expected fast better service and quality. The breakfast at the many cafes in the area offered a better service and at half the price. I'd stay at the hotel again, for the quality and location, but i did expect a lot more from a high quality hotel that i had stayed at before.

3 night stay

We enjoyed an excellent 3 nights. Close to the CBD and the tram service which is fantastic for getting to the beach. We recommend the restaurant on the top floor which is outstanding. Great food with first class service.

Crystalbrook Kingsley Newcastle

We had high expectations after seeing the hotel on Travel Guides. I will start with the downsides, there were a couple of long strands of black hair on our bed, must be from the lady who serviced the room. The toilet seat is a bit high for comfort and the room at 29m is definitely on the small side, though big enough for a short stay. There was no pool or even a gym room which is a big disappointment for a 5 star hotel. Also no hotel lobby for easy parking and $50/night for parking is way too much when there is free night parking right outside. We liked the separate toilet from the bathroom, appreciated the free movies on offer. Loved the views from the buffet breakfast Roundhouse, can never get tired of that. We also liked the free filtered water station on each level, this is a big bonus and great for the environment, wish every luxury hotel had this feature. Overall a nice stay and would recommend it if you come to Newcastle as there really isn't much option for 5 star hotels in this city.

Fantastic hotel with a nice signature scent. Enjoyed the buffet breakfast on the top floor with great views to be had while eating. Great central location, walking distance to everywhere, so many dining options nearby, highly recommend, we would stay here again in a heart beat!

Super friendly staff, from the time we arrived, to dining, room service and everything in-between. They made us feel very welcome, not like guests, but like 'part of the family'. A BIG thank you for making our stay a special and memorable one.
