Dampier Mermaid Hotel Karratha

Nice view from balcony. Free shuttle. On time shuttle service. Hotel is old and need to improve in cleanliness. Door knob feels unsafe.

周圍環境優美，只是酒店設施比較陳舊，空調噪音太吵了，床彈簧都不行了，枕頭也不舒服

The batter on the honey prawns was undercooked which caused the prawns to be a soggy mess. The fish sliders had almost no fish, just crumbing. Really poor value for money. Too expensive for what it Was.

The room was clean and the view was amazing. The food is not bad, the staff at the bar you cannot fault them at all. BUT the bar manager needs to retire or move on. He is so rude to the customers and his staff, he never smiles, he walked past me 3 times while I was waiting to get a drink and order a meal. I had to say excuse me to him to get his attention. And the bar was not full of people either. Apart from HIM we did have a good time, get rid of the prick.

The most filthy room I have ever seen in any hotel anywhere I have been in anywhere in the world - including unidentifiable brown stains and accumulated dirt all over the carpet. And here was a first - the previous guest’s dirty towel still hanging in the bathroom. I truly wondered if the sheets had been changed. Outside every bedroom, an un-emptied can full of cigarette butts. It was nice to see kangaroos grazing on the grass by the water in the mornings, though. A warning, too, that the bar is covered in “Hillary to jail” “all lives matter” and various other stickers that some might find offensive.

The pub is large and has a great rustic outdoor eating area which overlooks the Dampier Harbour. It is frequented a lot by miners in high vis, has a bar with numerous TV's playing sport and of late has skimpies behind the bar. The building itself is shabby and looks like it hasn't been upgraded since it opened in the 60's. On the plus side, the food is pretty good and reasonably priced if you go for the specials like steak, chips, salad for $18 on a Tuesday night. You cannot see the bar/skimpies from the outdoor eating area and this is frequented by families and travellers quite often. It is what it is, so don't expect anything fancy and you will have a good time. I've taken a few friends from the city, and they enjoyed themselves so I just think of the venue as an interesting throwback from the past.
