Q
Accommodation was very tight in Lightning Ridge and only three places to eat dinner.
Large comfortable cabin with curtains that actually cover the door and windows! Good night’s sleep and very good bistro
We located as you enter the town, then easy walking distance to Lightening Ridge town. Great room.

Ok for overnight stay. Beds comfortable. Could park outside room. Great meal at Bowls Club just a short walk away. Lighting in room dark, no hairdryer.
There was no hot water for showering. 2 night stay and both nights i had a cold shower. Went to the laundry to do my washing, by the time i had finished the water from the rain had come all the way to the door. Would recommend thus pkace only if you are desperate

We had significant issues with the hot water in the shower for our unit.
The relationship between the hotel and the bistro took some working out.
Very cosy rooms with sunny outdoor area. The staff were so welcoming and helpful. We enjoyed drinks in the bar and a delicious meal in the Bistro.
The location is excellent walk to everything in Town.
We really felt at home here and enjoyed our time in Lightning Ridge.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Satisfactory for the location. Negatives: no table, only backless chairs, chipped crockery, shower makes a real mess - no enclosure.
The room was clean and comfy. Due to remoteness it was reasonably priced. The meals at the bistro were good and staff friendly. Overall facility was tidy, lawns mowed however the accomodation building is tired, and maintenance needed. Timber slats need repair, windows n flyscreens need cleaning, aircon unit was noisy. We were comfy and warm and would stay again.
