We loved the charm of the hotel, and being a boutique hotel it only has a small number of rooms. The location being on the edge of the escarpment is magic, the views are magnificent and the gardens are glorious. The staff, food and service is of a very high standard, professional but also friendly. This is a great little hotel to celebrate a special occasion or just be a tourist.

One of the most memorable views from a hotel room I’ve ever had the privilege to experience. The view from the terrace is unmatched both day and night, assuming you have a clear sky for star gazing. The room itself was comfortable but quite tired. Lots of scuffs, wear and tear. Clearly it has been much loved for many years but is in need of a minor face lift. That said, it was perfectly clean and didn’t detract front the stay. It would take a lot more to make me regret booking a room with that view. I’ll surely remember the tranquility and scenery above all else.

Having worked in a hotel myself, I know what to look for. I could not fault the staff at all during my stay. We ate at the restaurant and had breakfast across the road in Lillian Fels. Each experience was excellent. The only criticisms are that the spa bath looked a bit tired and the air conditioning was noisy, but once the room was warm, we just turned it off. There is one other thing, and I have found this in other hotels, two guests, but only one luggage rack. Apart from that, the view was the best of any hotel I’ve ever stayed in, and that’s saying something. Once again, staff - amazing, view - to die for. HIGHLY recommend.

Couple stay. Only stay for the view

Stayed overnight for blue mountains. It was a disappointment arriving as you have to check in a different hotel and then drive to echo hotel. There is reception there but no staff at this hotel. Hotel and rooms need a massive refurbishment. Money they are charging to stay here is over priced and I would only stay here again for the view of the mountains from the bedroom at a discount. Didn’t eat at either restaurants because not much to choose from. Spa treatments not available and closed for refurbishment I believe. We was very disappointed. Carpets and sofas in our room stinks of pets and wasn’t very clean and the shower was broken and needed replacing so wasn’t a proper shower unfortunately.

Liked: Staff & service
I called ahead to let them know we would be checking in later than I thought which meant the hotel reception is not manned , check in would now be via their sister hotel Lilianfels, all ran smoothly and the staff were attentive. One thing to note about the Echoes is there is no lift, our room was on the lower level and quite a few steps to take our luggage down. Lilianfels sent across staff who assisted with the luggage which I thought was good. I thought with the rate $750 per night we had paid that the room would of been more inviting, was an odd shape and the furnishings are tired, the carpet was discoloured and sticky, a good carpet clean or replacement is definitely needed, bathroom could of been cleaner, and no fan worked whilst showering which filled the room with steam. Pros where the little walk out balcony to which you have a small view of the mountains on that level, upstairs is breakfast which has the views I think our next visit to the blue mountains we would definitely choose to stay at Lilianfels instead

Very Overpriced

Our room was ready right on the check in time of 3pm. It would have been nice to check in earlier since the weather was miserable. We checked in at the sister hotel Lilianfels as there was no staff at our hotel. The room was tidy. The bathroom was so very very tight and tied, you could not fit more than one person in there. There is not enough parking on the premises especially of an evening which is very frustrating in wet weather.
