What guests think

Reviews of The Astra Broken Hill highlight spacious, character-filled rooms, a central main-street location, consistently friendly staff, and an on-site restaurant and bar serving good, quality meals, cocktails, and coffee.

Several rooms feature balconies or verandahs, and some include in-room spa baths and heritage decor. Recurring drawbacks include occasional noise in balcony rooms, dated or maintenance issues in some bathrooms, housekeeping lapses on shared balconies, and some TV or Wi‑Fi problems. Restaurant and bar closures during some stays surprised a few guests despite generally strong food feedback. Best suited to travelers who value character and convenient access over modern polish or absolute quiet.

This was a beautiful property offering a lovely room that was well presented & spacious with access to the balcony. It was rather disappointing that the restaurant & bar were also closed during the duration of our stay - these are features that sway a booking, so it seemed a little deceptive. However overall we had a very enjoyable stay.

We arrived and the pub was completely locked and closed. Fortunately there were two employees outside waiting for a lift who assisted us. Would have been nice to know that before we arrived. I booked in a pub because of the convenience of having food/drink etc right there but that was a waste of time. Not a bad stay but annoyed it was all locked up, no use staying in a pub.

The room was large and very comfortable room, while a little dated in places. The room opened out onto a wide veranda that was shared by other rooms. The balcony had a few tables and chairs that I suspect hadn't been cleaned for a while as there were buckets of empty drink bottles. The staff were really friendly. Easy to reach the centre of town as it is on the main street

I come here regularly for work and it's always a nice stay. Clean and spacious rooms with friendly staff. They also went above and beyond for me as I had to leave a night early due to a family emergency and they will credit me a night for my next stay. Would highly recommend if staying in Broken Hill.

The staff were super friendly and helpful. Bed was comfy and the room was spacious and had everything I needed. Bathroom was a bit old and tired with damaged floor of shower (glad I had my thongs). Have stayed there before and would definitely stay there again. It's a bit noisy so you'll need ear plugs to sleep.

The house keeping staff were lovely and helpful. Although we didn’t go there to watch TV the TV was very small and the first room didn’t work at all . The staff were very happy to move us and accommodate our needs however. It is a lovely place but very noisy if you are in the balcony rooms.

The hotel is in a fantastic location with restaurants below. Unfortunately Covid has affected Broken Hill and there was almost no service. Our rooms were not cleaned. Towels were left sitting on a coffe table outside rooms for the length of our stay and rubbish was left on the upstairs balcony. We were not told there was no service. The bar manager let us know he was understaffed and he was exceptional in his service. He seemed to be doing most of the work in the bar, helping reception and in the restaurant by himself.

Toilet was leaking water from the cistern when we flushed. Water was pouring onto the bathroom floor so we couldn’t really use it. No internet not that I care but my teenage daughters did.
