No matter what your budget or personal preference, you’ll sleep easy in Australia. Hotels, motels and B&Bs here run the gamut from bare-bones basic to no-holds-barred magnificence, via every kind of mid-range possibility. Dreaming of holing up in an elegant jarrah-and-redwood lodge deep in the Blue Mountains? Perhaps you’ve got a penchant for period-style Goldfields guesthouses, or inner-city boutique-hotel chic? Look no further. Water views or lush landscaped grounds, on-site pinball parlour or honeymooners’ heaven – take your pick. You’re sure to find somewhere sweet to rest your head, whatever part of the country you’re visiting.
