Disappointing and clearly making leverage of the Restaurant. Very overpriced for what was delivered.

This is clearly a renovated hotel that was not built for what would be expected now. The bathroom was inadequate. Paid extra for a room upgrade. Would hate to see what the normal room was.

I would happily stay here again!

I had a wonderful stay at this property. The place was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the host was friendly and responsive throughout my visit. The pool area was relaxing and beautifully kept, the restaurant served delicious meals, and the staff were professional, welcoming, and attentive throughout my stay. Great location and overall a very pleasant experience.

Although we had a wonderful stay at banisters, I have to say it was probably due to our own excitement rather than the h

The staff were great at reception and at the poolside. We loved the decor, etc. Around the lobby and pool and felt relaxed and well looked after.

We had a lovely time, as always.

On check in the lovely staff member happily found us a better room for a very good rate. We contacted room service at one time and the staff were so accomodating. Nothing was a problem and their response was immediate.

The continental breakfast was ‘adequate’ but charging extra for coffee looks penny pinching.

Property is beautiful

Fun stay shared with Sydney based family

The location in the vicinity of Port Stephen’s was great for getting around and exploring. The accomodation and parking close by was excellent as were the restaurant linked to Rick Stein and the adjacent bar/pool area.
