This was my first time staying in a larger hotel in the Hunter Valley & I was impressed by the service. Unfortunately our first night was marred by an 'act of god' in the shape of large thunder storm which created some difficult problems for the staff in terms of power failures etc. It was disappointing that some electrical faults... more

We only stayed one night here in a Superior Room but the room was clean and the King size bed was comfy. The sunken bath with Atrium roof was great to relax, staring at the stars.

Great hotel, grounds, staff, food, location........must I go on? Recently stayed for a weekend with partner and we will definitely return again.
