Summary: We stayed here purely because we had a wedding to attend and the guest bus stopped here. Unless you’re a family who wants a holiday park ambience, I’d give it a miss. Can’t comment on staff/service because we used self check-in and check out. Convenient drive to Pokolbin region and other wineries.
Ellena Apr 25, 2026 01:25:58 PM
Summary: Sauna room is too small.

Feri Apr 15, 2026 02:47:12 PM

Elisa Apr 6, 2026 03:24:31 PM
Summary: Disappointing thing is you cant sit in the bar and watch any football as they have no foxtel or streaming service, only free to air. They also charge an eftpos fee and on top of that 10%/15% charge for sundays and public holidays. Im sure the $400 a night should cover the cost We have stayed here a few times and i feel that ill be looking at other hotels next time.
