Very easy to park. Very lovely staff members. Stayed in a room with 2 beds which is comfortable and clean. Funitures are old style, the sofa in our room is very old and worn out, and is covered with bed sheets. And the lights are quite dark like most of the hotels. Sauna downstairs is very comfortable and good but the little Spa is out of order. It looks better in the pictures. In reality, It could be more splendid.

Only stayed one night, our room was spacious and comfortable. Clean room and clean bathroom. Very quiet. Alas no lift, so needed to go up 2 flights of stairs to the first floor, room 304. We also had the continental breakfast which was very satisfying offering cereal, fruit, yogurt, toast and pastries along with tea and coffee. Close to Scenic World and Katoomba main st. Friendly staff. Enjoyed our stay.

Palais Royale is well placed for a stay in the Blue Mountains. Katoomba main street with a good choice of shops and restaurants / cafes is a short walk away ( 3 minutes). The hotel itself is an historic building in the town. It has lots of original features . Rooms are spacious and comfortable. The en suite has a bath / shower in the style of the original fittings. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The restaurant wasnt open in the evening at our time if stay so we ate out in the town at one of the nearby restaurants. A nice place and comfortable for our stay.
