8/10
Kyah Hotel is a Palm Springs (yes, I have been to PS more than once) inspired converted old motel with vegetable garden, a tennis court, desert styled plantation décor, with a hot tub (soon to be 2 hot tubs), and chicken coup. Located in the Blue Mountains, NSW, it is clear that investment was made to convert old style motel in the area into an oasis-like resort. I had a great stay in Kyah, I think the amenities are more than sufficient for a long weekend stay with family.
Kyah made checking in and out a breeze, with the use of Goki app to access rooms and common areas. But to be honest, for a small resort such as this, the non-check process of the whole experience has made it impersonal and detached, as I feel we, as guests, are just a number to Kyah. But maybe this is the future of hospitality and resorts; in and out, with no personalisation. We shall see. I can totally picture Kim K staying in this facility and having her assistants checking in and out on her behalf whilst her driver drives her in direct to her room. And since everyone is an IG influencers nowadays, maybe this is the way forward.
Love the front garden area; it is well maintained and there was a fire pit that we could use. Extensive maintenance needs to be kept up as most plants aren’t native to the area. The back garden hosts a chicken coup, where I am hoping that Blaq Restaurant (separate review on this fab restaurant!) would utilise the chicken to good use (doubt it though!).
