Australia10 Reviews“Elegant historic hotel with awesome restaurant”Generally a pretty happy stay. Facility is old, as the name. So not for those who expect a brand new modern hotel. We stayed at the two bedroom apartment and there’s only heater in living area.
Lovely location surrounded by beautiful scenic view of bush, beach and lake. Close to Port Arthur historic site. Elegant historic building itself. Restaurant with awesome interior and lovely food. Food also big in portion.

Australia6 Reviews“Very rude Manager”There is no happy hour even though it is advertised. The bottle shop is closed even though it is advertised. Also how the manager spoke to us and others in our group. We had waited until 9am so we could get a coffee. When entering the hotel we were asked if we were with the tour bus. We advised that we were not we were only there to grab a coffee. He then proceeded to tell us that his staff would be too busy to serve us and we would have to wait until they had served the tour bus which was coming in which would be around 40 mins wait!! Umm we are paying guests at his hotel. He said this in a very impolite way and we were very shocked at his attitude towards us. Obviously we did not get our coffee.
Property was ok

Australia11 ReviewsPleasantIt wasn't very clean. There were no teaspoons. Very run down, hopefully the new owners will improve it, because it could be an old lovely place. Water isn't drinkable, not their fault, and they supply bottle water.
The out look was lovely.

Stunning view onto the lake from our room - absolutely gorgeous! It was great to have a small fridge, microwave & kettle available in the room. Size of the room was good and the high ceiling made it feel even bigger.

Dirty tissue was outside our door for the whole stay, the housekeepers must have just walked over it. We ate in the Resturant once and very basic, mash potato just thrown on the plate and steak had so much fat, uggg
Position was great

The beds on wheels and kept rolling around the room. Lights flickering/ power not stable. The pub only has a dining hall, nowhere else to sit.
Very rustic with great views of the Lake.

Australia6 ReviewsVery GoodThe water in the room is not drinkable even being boiled. The hotel provides free spring water for guests to drink and brush teeth. The aim of not linking water pipes is to protect wombats' burrows. I'm OK with that. But the large numbers of plastic bottles may bring another environment problem. The location and surrounding of the hotel are nice.
