"My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 5 Islands Hotel. We found the recently renovated rooms clean, very comfortable and well appointed. With temperatures reaching the mid to high 30 degrees outside the air-conditioning was a welcome respite after playing tourist during the day. The hotel is very centrally located and the rooms were well sound insulated to block the outside noise of the hotel and traffic. The cost of our room was very reasonable considering we were there during school holidays in early January. Parking was initally a bit tricky upon our arrival as the car park doubles as the public carpark for the hotel as well as parking foe guests. However, before opening and after closing times there was a good choice of parking spots to choose from. We would highly recommend 5 Islands Hotel as a moderately priced, comfortable and centrally located place to stay when visiting Wollongong. We will happily return in the future."
