Very convenient hotel with pleasant, friendly staff. We stayed for 2 nights to attend a family function. Can recommend asking for a room facing the garden - it was so quiet considering we were on the main highway. Nice swimming pool in the pretty grounds. Basic breakfast was included in the tariff. We booked a king suite and were pleasantly surprised that the rooms were so big and comfortably furnished. However we were disappointed that the TV in the lounge area did not work on free to air channels as the arial point in the wall was broken. When I reported this to reception they knew of the problem but told me I could use it for logging in the pay channels - which we don’t use - and that I could watch free to air on the TV in the bedroom. We ended up bringing the TV from the bedroom out to the living room which fortunately came with a very very long arial cable which could go into the arial wall socket in another room. Not ideal. I would definitely check this before booking the suite again as I love to wind down at night watching TV in bed.

Lounge was very dirty could not sit on it. Shower needed a tool to turn it on and off. (Could not turn it on by hand or off) because of the taps the shower was burning hot or cold could not get it right. Gave up and just didn’t shower. Shower was also very slippery and dangerous like the cleaning soap was never washed down.. Taps on sink are poorly designed so your fingers get caught trying to turn it off or on.. Stains on the carpet was not nice..

Arrived early and room understandably wasn’t ready however the young man at reception was able to give us our key which was great as we were headed to a concert in Pokolbin and wouldn’t return until late. That’s where the positive ends. Bathroom wasn’t the cleanest as there was mould on the ceiling and someone’s used soap in the shower so potentially hadn’t been cleaned. It also looked like it hadn’t been restocked with whatever toiletries they provide. The sheets looked and felt like sheets that had been slept in with a gritty feeling in the bottom of the bed. Went to breakfast at 9:20 not realising they closed at 9:30 (most hotels serve until 10am) to be greeted with you’re a bit late you can have tea or coffee and there’s fruit (apples and oranges in a fruit bowl). All sign of other food had been removed 10 minutes before breakfast finished and while there was still guests eating. Went to check out so we could go and get breakfast and nobody was at the desk where other people were also waiting to check out. Not a positive experience and with nobody at reception I couldn’t voice my concerns.

We had a 3 night stay. The room was a good size with a small balcony overlooking the gardens and pool. The bed for me was a little uncomfortable. It was a king (I think) but a definite sag in the middle.Weather was not kind as it rained most of the time so can't comment on the pool which would have been nice to relax at days end. Breakfast included was continental but sufficient. the usual cereals, fruit, breads etc. A little out of city centre so meant we needed to drive into town rather than walk. Not a big deal. Overall enjoyed the stay. Staff were pleasant, helpful.

The worst experience ever! Please take your time to read. Check-out was meant to be at 10am and by 10:01am we had a very aggressive man knocking at our door and even dared opening our door without our permission. He was YELLING at us that we needed to leave immediately otherwise he would charge us $100 per hour. We were late yes, and 15mins later he came back to insult us telling us that we were disrespecting the contract, he was very aggressive towards my girlfriend who opened the door the second time and offered were going to pay for the 15mins delay, but instead this furious man didn’t let us finish packing and kept yelling we needed to leave immediately and that we should go back to our country. This person was nothing but scary and aggressive. He was taking advantage of the place being almost empty. On a Sunday morning without any management to speak with at the premises, we ended up reporting this to the Visitor Information Centre in Singleton. Thanks for reading, this is not the place you should book for your weekend away in the Hunter valley.

A small continental breakfast is provided in the dining room, but the choice was small, and many items ran out early. There was only one man on duty to man the reception and all other tasks and he did his best to restock the table. There is also a bar and restaurant to be opened next week.
