Our stay of 2 days at The Royal Daylesford was beautiful. Checkin was made easy by your staff. Rooms are modern and clean. Location is great, all shops and cafes are walking distance. Abit noisy on Sunday night, Monday was better. Would highly recommend to stay here.

Recently renovated rooms were a fun surprise, given the hotel itself had old original exterior & interior (which is also lovely). Great location right on the round about, so close for meandering to shops, cafes, park/playground if you're travelling with kids. Great hotel rates for what's on offer

The room was good and check in friendly and helpful. A couple of draw backs, the noise from bands playing until late was annoying and the balcony was more of a shared verandah and not separated from the adjoining room, as they were smokers we couldn’t sit outside without breathing their smoke. Also there was only one table and 2 chairs and an old bench seat for the two rooms.
