Top Illawarra Rhododendron Gardens Hotel Reviews

Sage Hotel Wollongong

8/10 Good

"Great customer service across all divisions. I would ask for a room not on the pool side next time due to noise."

Unanderra Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"convenient place to stay on a budget. Comfortable Bed and nice clean linen. nice big TV. Some of the other furniture was worn but not a problem. Not much noise at all considering it’s a hotel and on a weekend. Parking no problem out the front. The women's shared bathroom was clean enough. Front of house were so nice and helpful. I would definitely stay here again."

The Belmore Apartments Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"👍"

Five Islands Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean rooms and easy to access"

Adina Apartment Hotel Wollongong

10/10 Excellent

"great room, great amenities."

KULA Wollongong

8/10 Good

"Kula is a lovely property. The apartments are well presented, spacious and comfortable. The location is also great and walkable to the beach and mall. There were some issues with one of the lifts not working, however the team communicated quickly and clearly and it was rectified the next day. I would suggest the addition of stoppers on all of the doors, as they bang onto the wardrobe mirrors and could cause breakage. There is also one needed on the outside of the mirror bathroom cabinet. The balcony was great however unusable for most of the day as it was in full sun until the afternoon. Some shutters or shade to protect part of it would be great. The pool area was lovely and clean however a bit too cool for a swim. Overall a beautiful property and great value."

Argo Serviced Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Check in staff very welcoming, room was clean, parking was safe and secure."

Solomon Inn Wollongong
