Convenient for one night stay. Parking available but busy and noisy area. Right near main road so traffic noise till late at night. Room was very clean no issues. Older style accomodation. Bed was comfortable. Easy walk to the tavern for dinner.

Great for a short stay. Attached to a Tavern with meals and drinks. Close to everything. Beach, shops and RSL. The Reception for checkin is in the middle of the bar area. The room was clean and accessible from the pool side and the car park side.

Everything at Nightcap was perfect - more than I expected. I will definitely stay here again when on the north coast. The bed and pillows were fabulous and although the hotel is on the main road, you can’t hear the traffic when in your room. Be careful of booking sites that charge extra for guaranteed/reserved parking though - it’s free for everyone - and you can’t actually reserve a spot.
