ibis Newcastle Hotel 3.5 stars

Efficient overnight stay. Breakfast left a bit to be desired, order mixed up and then muffin dry/stale.

I was made to feel welcome. The hotel is central to Newcastle CBD.

I had to check out at 11am,but was not meeting friends offthe Sydney train until 2.30pm.Not wanting to lug my bag around for hours,I asked if It would be possible to leave my luggage with the staff at front desk.I really expected them to say no,but to my delight they said they would look after it for me.That was the best service I have had from a motel!! I appreciated it so much,as I could explore without the burden of the bag.! Thankyou to the lovely staff,and I will be back for another stay.

One night, all ok.

Friendly staff, convenient location & great rates, parking onsite. Walk to Honeysuckle cafes, restaurants.

We needed a room at short notice, and this one was better priced than Ibis Budget! Check in and staff interaction were good. The room was a good size and the bathroom design SO much better than Budget. Very comfortable bed, too. We will look to IBIS again.

Easy smooth check in and out. Breakfast wasn’t great. When we arrived to shower one towel was dirty (looked like toothpaste on it) so we shared a towel as we were in a rush to go to a show. Staff were lovely, couldn’t fault them. The room could have been cleaner, hair and yellow marks were in the bathroom. Dust on the bed head also, and the room smelt a bit weird.

Friendly helpful staff and good rates

Close to the light rail and a quick walk to Honeysuckle, this is a great place to stay. Also one of the few Motels with plentiful, reasonably priced parking.

I have stayed at IBIS Newcastle previously as it provides basic clean accommodation in a good location.

Clean and tidy room. Minimally equipped. Bathroom was a plastic insert in the room and felt like camper-van rather than a hotel. It lacked some of the minimum required utensils - tea spoon or fork. Also, lack of a toilet brush which I don't understand. Small amount of shampoo and soap plus some instant coffee sachet and tea. There was a TV. Shower temperature and pressure very good. Other than that, very nice staff and very good location. Clean and simple. Very budget but OK.

Location was great. Room was small but clean and comfortable. Staff were polite. Chef didn’t turn up so no breakfast 😞 No warning given so delayed departure for breakfast for no reason. Talking to other people staying indicated chef often turns up late or not at all.

My husband and I stayed at this hotel, only one night, last week. The hotel was spotless throughout. Bedding was most comfortable. The staff throughout the hotel including the breakfast cook were most friendly, possibly the friendliest overall found in any Accor hotel. Well done!

First impressions were a bit of a disappointment. However, with a realistic outlook, we would definitely stay here again. While the location is not in the glitzy part of town, it is only a block from Honeysuckle and far cheaper than other properties with a Honeysuckle address. The room was fairly basic, but had everything we needed. The fridge was small but kept things cold and was blessedly free from minibar clutter. The onsite security parking was excellent value compared to onstreet parking which is all metered. Our room faced the street but was still very quiet. 4 pillows on the bed instead of three would have been nice ... but we could have asked for an extra one. The mattress was the most comfortable of any hotel I have stayed in over many years of travel. Staff were friendly and helpful.

the entry had rubbish which was left for a 24hr period, the cleanliness in garden area was also filthy to the point we had to request a staff member clean the rubbish so we could eat breakfast without having rubbish by our side, restricted dinning for breakfast due to covid and a private booking which was disappointing.
