The stay
The hotel runs old-world by design: open fires and high tea in the lounge, an indoor pool and day spa for misty afternoons, and rooms that look into gardens or across the Jamison Valley. The Three Sisters are a two-minute stroll from the driveway.
Around Katoomba
Echo Point and the Three Sisters are next door, Scenic World’s railway ten minutes away, and the clifftop track west leads toward the falls and lookouts of the upper mountains — our Blue Mountains guide and the Wentworth Falls secret track cover the best of it.
