Mantra The Observatory Port Macquarie

Perfect location overlooking the beach and close to restaurants and shopping district.

Great apartment close to town, beach & restaurants

Check in was easy even with a late check in. Bed was lovely and comfortable. Shower was also amazing

I have been staying at the OBSERVATORY NOW MANTRA HOTEL SINCE THE BUILDING WAS BUILT . I HAVE ALWAYS STAYED THERE FROM DAY ONE . THE STAFF AT THE RECEPTION DESK ARE THE FACE OF THE BUSINESS IMAGE SETS THE OBSERVATORY APART FROM OTHER HOTELS. I ALWAYS FEEL AT HOME WHEN I ARRIVE . MANTRA MEANS MEMORIES .

Stayed 3 nights it was comfortable, clean, friendly, very welcoming, fabulous pool and stunning view everything was enjoyable for this reason stayed an extra night.

We returned to The Observatory and enjoyed a most pleasant stay. We were forced to delay our arrival because of the floods, and then had to extend our stay twice because of car/tyre problems and we found the staff most helpful, understanding and accommodating. The young man who checked us in was extremely helpful as was Amy who we dealt with as we were forced to extend our stay.

absolutely awesome. Kids loved it (constantly in the pool) myself and my wife had a fantastic stay there. we will be coming back in October.

Very comfortable unit with great outlook and close to everything we were looking for.

We paid a bit more than we normally do for a hotel room and hoped for a nice room, however we were disappointed when we saw our room. It was small and the carpet had holes in it. The TV was smaller (42") and older than we usually get in a room $80 cheaper than what we paid here. We had a balcony but that was basically a boxed in room with a set of louvers to the outside. The shared indoor pool was very nice as was the shared spa. Location is nice on the headland but you are away from town. There is a cafe handy, but if it's not what you are looking for, then it's a drive into town. Waste of money, won't be staying here again.

Arrived just after the northern NSW floods had impacted Port Macquarie. It was business as usual at the hotel. Room was clean and well presented. No restaurant in the hotel so we went to the Mecure hotel, just a 10 minute walk down the road, for dinner. Nice view from the balcony.

Booked a two bedroom apartment and was advised on the phone that we would need to change rooms for our second day. Upon arrival I was told that would not be happening and that we had been given an upgrade to a Penthouse suite. The Galileo Suite was amazing and we extended our stay by an extra night. We had a wonderful break (we came up to see our three Grandsons whom we had not seen because of Covid for 15 months)and we were sorry to leave. Rest assured, we will be back. Thank you Karen and the rest of the staff for making our stay a pleasure.

The staff were efficient and the unit was comfortable. We did find the parking cramped. Once we were parked there was not enough room to open the back doors of our vehicle to take out our bags.

Staff were very pleasant and helpful. Room was nice and clean.

The two bedroom ocean view apartment was lovely - very spacious with everything you needed for your stay and a spectacular view of the beach, ocean and breakwall. It was perfectly placed just outside of town (but an easy 15 or so minute walk) and about a 5 minute walk to the Coastal Walk path! The staff were super friendly and went out of their way to assist even with the bad weather and flooding.

Both Check-in and Check-out was smooth. Didn't get around to using the facilities. But staff was prompt to replenish supplies.
