The Carrington is a lovely old hotel where you step back in history. Much of it seems little changed since it was built!! It has plenty old world charm, remarkable that it has survived as a hotel all this time. Even though it is a bit tatty around the edges. Conveniently located in the centre of Katoomba. Convenient parking in a secure garage.

A characterful building that has been brought back to life following the period of lack, firstly of maintenance and then its usage. An excellent investment of time and finance. Hopefully this will have a long term impact.
