Giant bed and huge TV were novelties for me. But I had trouble at first working out the shower tap, then having to step over the bath to use it (older person).

While this is close to town it felt v safe and was quiet in the ‘back rooms’. It was roomy, had v good wifi, coffee, service from very pleasant staff. Clearly this place has gone to big effort to upgrade itself and its appearance. All kitchen appliances as needed were there and in good condition. We are staying there again in 2 weeks.

Disliked: Staff & service
Unfortunately the staff member was rude and said check in time stopped at 6pm, the advisement on Wotif says 8:30 in in check in policy, room was paid in full and the staff member tried charging another$300 on arrival, I had the same issue with this member in previous interaction, I will never ever book another room through katherine hotel, my staff member was left room less, iv used Wotif for years and never had a problem, the katherine hotel member said he didn’t care what your terms and conditions said, his rules were 6pm and we would be charged a call out fee, rude and very unprofessional, now I’m $200 down and my staff member didn’t even get a room. His attitude is unlike no other and I have lived in this town all my life, i had worked with all the roadworks crews around the territory, i will be telling every single person about the disgusting attitude this man showed. Sorry to sound rude Wotif but this man needs to justify why he even has a hotel with an attitude like this.
