Staying at The Gatsby was like stepping back in time to the 1920's. The furnishings were true to the era and we had everything we required. It was a very comfortable stay.

Thank you for your lovely review of The Gatsby, Dianne. Being transported to the 1920s is exactly what I wanted to achieve, so reading your review means I’ve completed my mission. Thank you once again and I sincerely look forward to welcoming you back again. Take care, Lorraine
Everything about this property was fantastic. The location is so central to everything, the house is luxuriously decorated and spotlessly clean, there is a very well stocked kitchen making cooking a breeze ... and there is a spa!!! Everything is exactly as beautiful as it looks in the photos.
Thanks to Lorraine for making everything so easy to arrange, we had a super relaxing and enjoyable time.

Cosy Katoomba Retreat
The Gatsby is in a very central location in Katoomba - close to the Centre of town as well as Echo Point and the Scenic Railway. The house is cosy - bedrooms are quite small and although there are two bathrooms, these are not en-suite bathrooms. There is a fabulous bath tub in one bathroom. Lorraine is a very generous host who has great attention to detail with lots of added extras to make the stay comfortable.
