Best Western Blackbutt Inn

We had a comfortable enough room, very clean and just like the ad shows. It wasn't anything too fancy, but you get what you pay for. It's located 8.6km away from Newcastle city center, so if you're traveling by car, you'll be fine. It was a great option for a last-minute reservation during the holiday season. The highlight of our stay was the attention we received from a lady at the reception. She treated us really well and gave us detailed information about the accommodation and the city. She even told us about a Kangaroo reserve close to the hotel, which was a delightful experience. I would definitely stay there again.

Reception staff were brilliant, explained and showed us the car parking area, Took us up to our room, explained keys, lifts etc, showed us restaurant and bar areas and where to have breakfast the next morning. Restaurant staff were great, dinner was good and very tasty, when we asked about the early room service for breakfast as my husband had to fast from 7:30am they made sure we had breakfast early. Excellent and friendly service from everyone at the Blackbutt Inn. We'd stay there again.

Couldn't believe how quiet the room was given that we were above a busy pub on a Saturday night. Comfortable bed, tea and coffee making facilities, mini fridge, good size TV, very clean. Great food in the pub downstairs!

Room was somewhat small but comfortable and clean. Bed was very comfortable and my room was quiet. Minimal noise from the pub downstairs.

The room was very clean, uncluttered. The room is fairly well soundproofed so you don't hear much of the music of bands downstairs. A lift and stairwell up to the rooms are available, the pub was nice. Didn't try the restaurant but it seemed busy (busy in a good way). The checking in process is at the post office/ newsagent connected to the pub on the ground level. All the staff at the pub and post office/newsagent/check-in were very nice and helpful. Also a short car ride to Blackbutt park which I recommend.
