Unexpectedly lovely! I stayed two nights in a single upstairs room with a balcony, and it was peaceful, spotless, and full of charm. The bed was super comfortable, and I loved the character of the place—it has a unique warmth and attention to detail you don’t often find. I had breakfast both mornings and thoroughly enjoyed it—fresh and well-prepared. I also spent an evening at their wine bar — intimate atmosphere and a perfect way to wind down. The service from the owners was outstanding—genuinely warm and welcoming.

From the moment I stepped into the lobby and was made welcome to the moment I was wished a safe journey on leaving I enjoyed a very comfortable and relaxed stay. My room was large, my bed so comfortable, heaps of hot water in the shower and help with directions on my way to the next stop - all this made for a pleasant stay!

We didn’t up staying here as once we had booked we received a email from them stating that we had to call them asap with our booking details and our credit card information or we wouldn’t have a booking, called them and stated that we didn’t have a credit card and they told us we would have to come down asap which we couldn’t in order to pay a deposit as our booking wouldn’t be finalised until then. Got in contact with Expedia support who kindly called up on our behalf and got us a refund which I appreciate but besides that I think it’s poor service, not everyone has a credit card and not everyone can get down there asap to confirm their booking, this is how you lose customers.

Gorgeous room interior with friendly customer service. Felt comfortable and welcomed. Rob and Renee are running it all and it’s quite impressive. Breakfast tasted lovely and the whole stay was great value for money. I’d only suggest maybe getting a high chair for the dining room. We will definitely return for future stays in the area and I recommend it to anyone.

This a delightful boutique hotel. I had business in Chirnside the following morning, and this hotel was perfect. The rooms look just like the picture....spacious and individually decorated. The proprietor even got up early and offered me a breakfast at 6.30am for my early start, when she normally opens her breakfast service at 7am. The was greatly appreciated and was just one example of the very personal service I experienced. I could not have been happier. Thank you.

We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay. Renee our host was very helpful and friendly. We had a meal and breakfast which were both excellent. The accommodation was very comfortable and the decor was a lovely change from our usual contemporary. If we get back to Melb for a Yarra Valley visit, Victoria House will be our go to.
