"We stayed here on a one night stop over driving back from Adelaide to Lorne and it did what it needed to. Clean beds, spacious room and handy amenities in the room. Just could do with a bit of maintenance and updating as it is a bit “tired”. Can’t fault the staff, super friendly and helpful."

"The room was a really decent size and tastefully decorated with the recent renovations. Our room had a king sized bed, decent sized TV, tea and coffee making facilities and a Huge bathroom with double basins and mirrors. The room and bathroom were exceptionally clean. The hotel is located on the main corner of the main street in town and perfect walking distance to shops, the theatre, restaurants etc. Definitely a great place to stay and stay on to enjoy a beautiful breakfast in the dining room down stairs for an additional cost."
