Absolutely amazing stay! The staff were warm and welcoming from the moment we arrived. The room was spotless, beautifully presented, and incredibly comfortable. Every detail was thought of — from the quality amenities to the stunning gardens. The location was perfect. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience — we’ll definitely be back!

The Cadrona hotel looks just as it appears in the website. It has a lot of character a fantastic food menu and drink variety. It had some of the best food that we had all had over a period of 3 to 4 days. The rooms whilst comfortable lacked a preparation Area for simple brew making or basic food storage and did not have a fridge or a basic new TV which are both very cheap expenses and outlay in today’s modern world. We do understand that the owners may wish to keep things in line with the history however we think that those little touches would have rounded out a four star stay to a five star stay.

Great spot. Food was top quality. Staff very excellent. Only thing that would be good was if the rooms had a fridge which would be such a simple fix. Kids weren't a fan of the tube tv either😂 but didn't matter to us. Would definitely stay again.

Very noisy not family friendly, booked two rooms but were not next to each other in order for them to be closer a cost of over hundred dollars was requested this appeared unreasonable.

Fabulous piece of history to stay in. Would be nice to have 2 chairs in the room and an updated tv for for those cold wet days when the pub itself is full.

This is such a cool place to stay. The rooms are basic with everything you need, comfy beds, warm and the decor has a nice country feel. You can eat at the iconic Cardrona hotel or toast marshmallows around the outdoor fire then wander back to your room. Great staff as well.

I cannot fault my stay here. Staff were just wonderful and even offered to help me with my bags upstairs. My room was comfortable with amazing views of the lake. Food was exceptional. My favourite part of the stay was sitting out on the lawn enjoying the view.

Having stopped here for lunch many times, I always wanted to stay as it looked so lovely! I was not disappointed. This place was just wonderful. From the room to the staff, food and grounds, I can not fault anything. The fireplace, inside and out was the best. The hot tub was relaxing as well.
