Had all the facilities as a traveler just a bit on the old side. We were on the ground floor and had a rear patio and direct access to the beach and jetty. Service was very good.

The room was small and dimly lit, with an uncomfortable bed and an outdated bathroom and sink. While not the most comfortable option, it’s acceptable for a brief stay.

Nice motel style room in a very quiet position. Super comfy bed. Top quality towels and linen. Great to have face cloths supplied. Bonus of a small pouch of milk was much appreciated. Well done Hotel Waterloo on rearranging booking to allow us to stay an extra night.

A must visit

This hotel is a must visit. The room is huge and very comfortable. A quiet little town with everything you want to eat and drink a short stroll from this grand old hotel. We wish we booked more days here
