When is the best time to go to Waterfall?

The best time to go to Waterfall, New South Wales, is during the spring (September to November) and autumn (March to May) months. During these periods, the weather is generally mild and pleasant, with comfortable temperatures for outdoor activities like hiking and exploring the Royal National Park. You'll avoid the hotter, more humid summer months and the cooler, wetter winter. Spring is particularly lovely as the native wildflowers are in bloom, adding vibrant colours to the landscape. This makes it an excellent time for nature enthusiasts and photographers to visit. The waterfalls themselves are usually flowing well after any winter rains. Autumn offers similarly agreeable weather, often with clearer skies.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel’s cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Waterfall hotel for you.

Top Waterfall Hotel Reviews

Travelodge Hotel Sydney Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Travelodge Sydney properties were very clean and comfortable. When we arrived they informed us that the kitchen would be closing soon if we wanted any food. Also their shuttle service to the airport was very good with separate shuttles for domestic and international so no delays in getting to your appropriate terminal. Nice comfortable shuttle service to wait. Shuttles left every 15 minutes. Very convenient."
