Find 4-Star Hotels in Katoomba

We stayed at Kurrara Hotel Guesthouse as a last-minute booking due to limited availability, but it ended up being a really enjoyable stay. One of the highlights was learning about the history of the property when we arrived, including its origins as a retreat and recovery place for visitors from Sydney. That historical charm gave the stay a unique atmosphere. The guesthouse had several quiet lounge and sitting areas to relax in, which added to the experience, although we only stayed one night and had limited time to fully enjoy everything before checkout. A major bonus for us was the EV charging station, which made travelling with our electric car much easier. The location was also very convenient — around a 10-minute walk to the Three Sisters lookout area and another short walk into town for dinner and cafes. Breakfast was simple but good, although quite busy since the hotel was full and breakfast was only served during a short time window. Overall, it was a peaceful and comfortable stay, and we would definitely consider staying there again.

Been to the estate a few times over many years. Always loving the view, the food and the great hospitality from the whole crew. This time around, I was very happy to be assisted by Michael from the concierge for accepting our luggage for an early check in, calling when the room is ready, etc. Plus, Michael is also very knowledgeable with all the activities there are. Bed is comfortable and room is immaculately clean. Due to the rain, it was unfortunate that most of the outdoor activities didn't happen, but we still enjoyed the stay through the indoor pool, air hockey, mirror maze, and ice skating all within the same compound. There's also affordable EV charging station here. 10/10 stay ☺️

The hotel is the oldest house in the town, and it has a lot of history. The hall below is open as a public space, and it feels especially good to drink wine by the fireplace at night. It is within walking distance of the train station, but it is in the opposite direction of the town's commercial street. If you are alone, it is a bit panic to walk back to the hotel at night. The advantage is that it is very quiet.

The natural environment is very good, between the three sisters and the echo point, the supermarket, it is very convenient, before the 9th to the landscape can avoid the tour group. The hotel environment and price are still very good, breakfast is very limited, there is time to eat around, and the surrounding small shops are also very cute. The rooms are small, the facilities are old and common. There is no extra charge for parking. In the morning and evening, the mountains are very cold, and there are electric heaters in the cabinets.
