Nice stop for one night. Hotel was quiet so they upgraded our room for free which was good. Clean, comfortable, plenty of parking. Nice DIY. breakfast. Only negative on a cold evening the heater struggled to fully warm the room.

The location is lovely, but definitely primarily an events venue. Everything functioned well. Rooms made the most of conversion from old building. Breakfast good. Evening meal imaginative menu, had to be booked in advance, room a little austere, no atmosphere.

Having just arrived at Melbourne airport, we chose this hotel, 30 minutes west, for an overnight stay in preparation for a planned drive along the Great Ocean Road the following day. It was perfect in every respect and great value for money. Highly recommended with one very tiny whinge .... it wasn't that easy to find.
