Quest Newcastle West Apartment Hotel

Quest Newcastle West Apartment Hotel combines serviced-apartment convenience with a distinctive setting in the fully refurbished 1876 Woods Castlemaine Brewery. At 787 Hunter Street, Newcastle West, the property sits at the gateway to Newcastle’s city centre, with cafes, bars and restaurants within walking distance. The light rail is directly across the road, providing another option for exploring the city, while the beach is listed as 1.5 kilometres away.

The accommodation is designed for both short and longer stays, with studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. The 33-square-metre Studio Apartment has an open-plan layout, a king-size bed, kitchenette, ensuite bathroom, apartment-controlled air conditioning, work desk and high-speed internet access. One-bedroom apartments add a separate bedroom, living area, full kitchen and European-style laundry, while larger apartments provide more space for families and groups. The 85-square-metre Two Bedroom Apartment includes two bedrooms, two bathrooms and private laundry facilities; the 118-square-metre Three Bedroom Apartment adds a dining table, full kitchen and private balcony.

Practical shared facilities include an onsite gym, outdoor BBQ area, business lounge with complimentary Wi-Fi, tea and coffee, and a conference room with natural light and modern audiovisual equipment. Guests can also access local recommendations and directions, and the property offers chargeback facilities to local restaurants. Onsite gated parking is available subject to availability and at an additional cost. These facilities make the hotel a useful base for business travellers, project stays, families and groups who want apartment space rather than a conventional hotel room.

Accessibility is a significant focus. The property and its accessible apartments are independently accredited for independent wheelchair users who can self-transfer from a bed or toilet, as well as guests with reduced mobility who use a cane or walking frame. Accessible apartment features include step-free access, wide doorways, roll-in showers and grab rails, with accessible one- and two-bedroom configurations available. The accommodation range also includes Twin Key apartments, combining an apartment with an interconnecting studio, which can suit families, smaller groups or guests travelling with carers. Solo travellers and couples may find the studio a compact option, while the larger layouts offer separate living and sleeping areas for longer stays.
