My husband and I only stayed one night , so didn’t get to see the restaurant’s and surrounding grounds, as it was late in the day when we arrived and we left early the next morning. We enjoyed a very comfortable stay , the room was spacious and clean and I would recommend this hotel to others.

Fantastic staff and stay
Staff was amazing and super helpful front desk at all hours of the day was polite and friendly. They even let me check in early so I could get ready for the conference. Cleaning staff also stocked my room each day and it was lovely that they even provided me with gluten free snacks! It was my first time staying but I’ve already recommended it to family and friends and have even looked at planning another stay there.

We were disappointed that we got back from the Cold Chisel concert and the bar had closed 1/2 hour early. I then had to go to the bar to get sugar for our tea that we were having in our room as there was none in the room. Overall though a lovely stylish clean venue with lovely big rooms. The buffet breakfast was delicious and the coffee was great
