Buyer beware. Our room was water damaged from a storm, wet carpet, wet mattress, wet sheets and the stench was appalling. Due to festival no alternate accommodation was available in Berry, Kiama, Wollongong. We braved it for 1 night and cancelled our second night as the room was uninhabitable. Despite promising a refund, they later said the terms and conditions stated refunds were not an option, even though the room was uninhabitable and not fit for purpose. Noone responds to emails or phone calls despite saying they will. Bathrooms were dirty, no hand wash sinks, showers are a health hazard, bar and food service were chaotic and the pub is extremely poorly managed. You have been warned.

The room very dirty waith mould on the ceiling. There is nothing in the room except beds. Only one share bathroom for female and it's disgusting. The tap was broken, no toilet paper. The shower is old and mouldy. Toilet door lock is broken. I recommend no one should stay here.

The room is not clean and it stinks. Floor is creaking. There is 'one single' shower room, wash basin and a toilet for 2 floors of guests. Wouldn't even recommend this hotel to people who are looking for the cheapest of the options. It's not worth the cheap price.

Just beds & a bin. No fan in this hot summer. Windows cannot be closed. One toilet in the entire floor for female. The whole building may collapse anytime. Both regular stairs and fire exits are hard to access. In a fire every single person gonna die. It's a fire trap. Though It's very cheap but not safe at all to spend nights.

This place is a disgusting mould infested hovel. It should not be allowed to be a place of accommodation. Its dirty, and the rooms are so full of mould its a disgrace. I will be reporting it to the council to inspect and close. We woke up with sore throats and after only a few hours mould growing on our things. 😱😡

We arrived beyond our checkin time, roughly 5ish. Staff made me wait 15 mins so they could obtain room key. I had to remind them I was waiting. I was informed that our room had not been cleaned due to the late check out. I think the people who supposedly checked out kate were still occupying the room. When entering, the room it smelt bad. Plates in sink , no toilet paper . Pubic hair bathroom sink . Holes in walls . No flat sheets . It was a horrible sight .

O.M.G! I should have expected the worst when i stepped onto the first worn and not carpeted step to climb up to the top floor.The stairs were carpeted further up but boy! were they a safety hazard with all the edges frayed and worn away. Finally made it to the top floor and found my room.Looked freshly painted as there was pain all over the light fixture. The bed was flat on the floor with no legs to support it luckily i was able bodied enough to get up off it.Where's the TV? there wasn't one. Where's the coffee making? After a search through the rabbit warren i found the ladies bathroom and coffee making facilities BUT no milk AND no cups. I dug through the cupboard underneath and found some plastic picnic cups but no spoons. Was wary of using the cups but had no choice if i wanted a drink. On to the bathroom, Ancient is an understatement.I wouldn't use the shower as it was in the bathtub and this would be an impossibility to get out of with any impairment. Now back to the room; No bedhead,pillows up against the wall plus the pillows LOOKED fresh but were stained and the throw pillows were sad looking things.NEXT; NO POWER POINT IN THE ROOM! just an extension cord run through the window from god knows where.The sound of creaking boards and other guests could be heard clearly as well as the roar of pub patrons downstairs which echoed up through the courtyard outside my window.The owners need to desperately update the upper part of the pub as there seems to be lots of space .

We rang up at 7.30pm to advise there was no toilet paper in the ladies bathroom on the 3rd floor. They said they would be up to fill it up. No one bothered to do it. No tissues in the bedrooms, not even paper towel. When I called the next day I was just fobbed off. No extra blankets if cold. Basic necessities not provided and charge full price.

Overall experience was okay. Location is convenient and walkable from the different tourist locations in the area. However, noise from the pub could be heard from the room we stayed. The door lock of the room we stayed wasn't working too. Toilet and bath is communal and I wish it could be cleaner.

Absolutely disgraceful and they should not be letting out rooms in such terrible condition. No electrical sockets in room, no A?C, floors and walls dirty, showers dirty, when showering water did not go down the drain. In one word: Disgusting

Our beds had sand in them, the ground wasn’t vaccumed properly… the shared toilets weren’t cleaned once during our stay and smelt like cigarettes. Also, for a room that should fit 6 ppl, there was only 1 powerpoint within two rooms that worked. The staff on the other hand were lovely, and when we asked for an extension chord they were happy to help. Check in and check out was easy and efficient.

Further to all the complaints about The Grand at this review site, the fact is that it's what it is, and doesn't pretend to be anything other than that! Given the price in comparison to what you'd pay elsewhere - and for that matter anywhere else in Kiama or the Wollongong environs coast - it's frankly great value for the prices it charges, while one can easily stay there for one - or even two - nights without being forever psychologically scarred! Staff can be matter of fact (they work in a busy pub in case you haven't noticed!) while they're friendly enough, and the premises go to great lengths to ensure C-19 safety via handwash and for the most part, reasonably clean bathrooms by pub standards. Basically, if you expect to get more than 2/3 star accom. for the prices, go elsewhere to avoid complaining, while if you can adapt to a setting which is up front honest re: what it says it offers, you won't be too disappointed. Other than that, the best thing about The Grand are their extremely generous cancellation terms and conditions!
