Great Location
3 Explorers Motel in Katoomba was what we expected for the price we paid. The location is walking distance to the 3Sisters and the excellent walking trails around the area. This is classic motel accommodation with some modifications to the room not the bathroom which is still old style and no where to put your toiletries bag. Bed was comfortable although the pillows were very hard. Quiet. Great for short stay as you don't spend much time in your room.

Cant ask a better location
About 5 minutes walk from Echo Point, you cannot ask a better location; because you have to pay to park in that area. So to be able to leave your car at the hotel is an advantage. As for the motel, the rooms are large and room service is good. You have also access to free WIFI and that is not common in Australia.

Great location, comfy rooms, amazing shower
I was surprised at how much I liked this motel as I find places in high tourist areas can be a let down.My partner and I came up from Sydney for a mid-week getaway and booked online for a great price. Glad we did book online as the place was fully booked by the time we got there, and on a Monday!The gentleman that checked us in was very friendly and accommodating. He recommended a restaurant for us which turned out to be exceptional.The room was comfortable and warm! It got to about 7degs that night and I was actually a little hot in bed. The bed was very comfortable and I had a great night sleep.The best thing about the room though was the shower. Holy wowzers! Best shower I have ever had out of home. Gas heating meant it was piping hot and didn't run out, even with the motel fully booked. And no water saving shower heads here, the water was strong and wide enough to give a great shoulder massage. A great way to start the morning or to relax after a long day bushwalking.The location is perfect for Katoomba. A short walk to Echo Point and a 20min walk to town centre (it is up hill though!). You can also easily walk around to Scenic World.Will definitely be staying here again next time I pop up for a mountains getaway.

Exceeded our expectation
Totally exceeded our expectation. We booked two rooms one was the kids. Our room was spotless, the shower was one of those with lots of pressure, great after trekking about. Price extremely reasonable. In a nutshell you have everything the expensive hotels have except for bars and their own restaurant. Save your money and spend it on going to one of the fine restaurants in the area.

great location for sightseeing
we picked the hotel for its location, although the attractions are within walking distance, if you are ok to do that, being disabled everything was close enough to drive to, not having to go for miles. We were also recommended a local pub for a meal, the old bank in katoomba, very reasonable and great food, so a big thank you to the hotel for that also, room was clean and tidy and well maintained.
