This is a very basic old fashioned type motel with tired furnishings in the room. There was, however, a flatscreen TV and tea and coffee making facilities although it is difficult to fill the jug from the bathroom tap. Wi Fi was available but had to go down to reception area to get logged on each time. The staff member... More

13 family members travelled to nelson bay for a reunion and had a very pleasant stay at the friendly PSML. Tom went out of his way to be helpful, even extending one room to help our niece and her two kids. He then drove them to the newcastle airport as our son had had a prang in town on his... More

We arrived in port nelson with no accommodation. We found this motel through making a few phone calls. The location was great and only a few mins walk to the harbour and shops. The owner was very friendly and saved us really as there was no other places to stay due to been so busy at this time of year.... More

For the price and location you can't beat this lovely little motor lodge around the corner from the marina. The rooms come with a little kitchenette and all utensils. Tom, the owner, is the hidden gem. Tap into his local knowledge, especially if you enjoy fishing, and you can't go wrong!

From the outside, the place looks stuck in the 1970s. Think "Crossroads" if you're English. Inside, we were greeted by the very friendly and helpful owner. In the room, we were back to the 1970s. Bare brick walls, tired furniture, tired decor, tired curtains. On the plus side, it was perfectly clean, the bed was comfortable and a new widescreen... More

the Port Stephens Motor Lodge staff are happy and friendly and very happy to help. the room is everything you need for a place to relax and wind down. Overall the lodge is a friendly happy place i know i will be back.

Stayed just overnight and found the motel to be clean and comfortable. The staff were extremely friendly and gave us a room with a view. We didn't have a reservation but the room was $10 cheaper than what it was advertised on the internet. Close to town and the marina.
