Unusual Broken Hill stays<\/h2>\n

Broken Hill Outback Church Stay, Broken Hill<\/h3>\n

Best Broken Hill hotels<\/h2>\n

The Imperial Fine Accommodation<\/h3>\n

Pick something a little bit special with a stay at this historical and heritage-renovated hotel<\/a>. Lean into the old-world feel of The Imperial. Once you\u2019ve checked in, challenge your travel companions to a game of billiards in the old front bar. Or (and we wouldn\u2019t blame you if this was the case) go straight to their walled courtyard. There you will find a saltwater, solar-heated pool, as well as the shade of apricot trees under which you can settle with a good book.<\/p>\n

The Astra Broken Hill<\/h3>\n

Dating back to the 1890s, The Astra<\/a> has retained its heritage features and charms despite the passage of time (and the addition of an al fresco cocktail bar, and scrummy dessert bar). Book into one of its eight suites – or its historical two-bedroom cottage – to spend a night or two in this beautiful old building.<\/p>\n

ibis Styles Broken Hill<\/h3>\n

While this is an affordable hotel that remains a favourite among business travellers and road trippers alike, it might be the ibis Styles<\/a>\u2019 S-Que Restaurant that first draws your attention. This hotel restaurant is one of the most popular places to eat in town.<\/a>\u00a0<\/b>The S-Que serves up a wide range of dishes, including New Zealand oysters, scotch fillet steak and paella.\u00a0Rooms at the ibis range from standard double to family.<\/p>\n
