Food was very good. Staff very good. 4 Drink vouchers given at check in was very good but when we went to use was not redeemable in Poker machine bar and both main bar and restaurant bar were closed. My opinion should have been able to use in all bars. Trap for young players.

The room was very clean though it smelt like an indoor pool! Chlorine filled the room. It disappeared not long after I turned the a/c on. Very noisy till 1:30am on a Sunday morning! I’m not quite sure if I can recommend this place! If cheap is what you’re after, book in!

Clean Comfortable Friendly

Clean, comfortable, secure carparking, delicious meals within the complex. Extremely comfortable bed. Friendly helpful staff. The building is a little dated but the room we were in had been refurbished. Will definitely stay again. The bathroom and toilet space could be a problem for a bigger build person or someone with mobility issues as the area is a bit tight.

My room was next to laundry room. There are few people outside of the room around 1am. They were talking so noisy. They seem like non customers for this hotel. The room is so clean but noisy outside. Couldn’t sleep …

Dalrymple has the best beds in Australia. The only negative whoever designed the really nice rooms needed to put more thought in wardrobe space there is hardly anything and absolutely no drawer space also those light shades hang far to low kept hitting our heads.

Close to the airport but behind a bar. The receptionist was in the bar & had to go around the buildings at 11 pm whereas the receptionist walked through the building. He had to call someone to check me in & did not provide breakfast pack or water. Had to go around the buildings to get water at night from the bar. Room interior was clean.
