Harrigan's Hunter Valley

Harrigan's Hunter Valley

8/10 Good
"Harrigans is a great place to stay. Good food, good undercover parking, friendly and convenient. However the accommodation is tired and needs a fair bit of maintenance. Shower old and door came of runners, sink cracked and stained, carpet old. Bed very comfortable. Check in is now managed at the Mercure hotel. Will definitely stay again as it suits us well. We have stayed here many times"
