Great location. Close to many vineyards, restaurants. Great view on the lake. Easy parking. Friendly staff. We did not try their restaurant, spa or pool - something to do next time. Fast wi-fi. Quiet place. Very cozy lounge with a nice fireplace and friendly faces. We visited in June - Hunter Valley did not have many visitors, so we were lucky. Pool table was the only minor disappointment. It's great to have it, but the cues and balls require replacement and the table needs levelling. In overall - great place.

The hotel was great, rooms very large and very clean with plenty of free parking next to your room. Buffet breakfast was good but busy so sometimes a wait for the trays to be replenished. Pool was a fair size with a free sauna with showers on the side. Very large Irish bar just 5 minutes away that has music and great food.

Room was very large and clean with a small terrace and packing outsude the room. The bed was large and confortable. The pool area was nice with some loungers around the pool as well as tables and chairs in the shade. The location was great to walk to a few different vibeyards and there was a small set of shops and coffee places. The gym was a bit disappointing wirh only fans and no a/c so it was a bit uncomfortable for excercising. I would recommend this hotel for a great location if you want to see the Hunter Valley and not drive everwhere

The rooms were spacious and practical, like all hotels it could do with more accessible power outlets near the bed, bathroom was clean, great shower. I’d suggest a door mat per room as I felt bad walking in with dirty shoes after the rain even after doing my best to clean them before entering. Staff were super friendly. Buffet breakfast was standard, nothing special, nothing wrong.

Rooms are very outdated (well ours was) the grounds in general pretty untidy / lots of cobwebs around and just a general untidy feel. We were a nice easy walk to the gardens though which is what we wanted. Restaurant quite expensive for the pretty basic accommodation.

The hotel was lovely and the staff great but they were very under staffed resulting in having to wait a ridiculously long time to order meals and drinks. The room soft curtains had very bad stains on them. They were very noticeable and should have been removed and cleaned. This did make me question the overall quality of the cleaning.
