Back Forest, New South Wales hotel rooms at the Independent

"A great couple of days. The room was very nice. The bed comfortable. The staff were pleasant and helpful. The food at the restaurant was 5 star"

"Room was nice & clean - having breakfast included was fantastic … food was nice and fresh. Really impressed with how much was included in the stay ie breakfast & all the amenities ie tennis courts, pool, pool table etc - sad that the indoor basketball courts & spa were out of order - hopefully we can enjoy them next time"

"Room was clean and spacious."

"Don't take shared bathroom room as there is no bathroom at first floor and only second floor. There is bar ground floor, very busy and noisy. Friday and Sunday they have live music which runs around 12 I think, so difficult to sleep till that time. Rooms are well maintained, bed was cosy. Just linens you get and no extra amenities. Location is perfect. The receipensionist was very helpful and listening, helped us with our issues very efficiently."

"Clean close to beach and shops Peaceful"

"Great budget motel for a one night stay. Have stayed here 2 years already for daughter’s soccer and have been a great experience."

"Helpful staff, very clean and comfortable "

"Clean and comfortable accommodation with a nice bed. Surprisingly quiet."

"Wonderful staff, surroundings and meals in their dining room. If I had to give any critique it would be the intrusion of the balcony lights on all night, seeping into the room for those of us that need absolute darkness when the curtains are pulled. Apart from that...5/5! Definitely going back with an eye mask."
