This hotel went above and beyond to make my stay a very memorable one. Wonderful service all the way from the text message I received to advise me that my room was ready early, to the lovely staff at my check in and check out. The room was warm, spacious and very clean and I had a prefect stay.

Great stay overnight while visiting the Sovereign Hill Winter Wonderlights! Super convenient location and easy to access via the dedicated gate. Spacious room and bathroom and our son loved the bunk bed! Loved the little outside patio area too. Thin walls so could hear the tv in the room next door. Staff were super helpful and lovely. Would stay again.

Great location and wonderful private access from accommodation to sovereign hill. Rooms we were expecting to be basic, but really they could do with new mattresses on the main bed! I’d say they are old as the hotel but they haven’t kept their charm like the beautiful hotel has! I actually ended up sleeping in the kids bunk bed because it was a better mattress. Other than this it has everything you need, the old vibes, great staff, great location and warm on a winters day.

The room was very tidy just very small for a larger size family (2 adults, 4 kids under 8). Unfortunately this is the biggest room available. Outside of that it was honestly a perfect stay for what our needs were. Being able to access Sovereign Hill from a side gate was amazing and being able to come & go meant we didn’t need to carry as much with us. The buffet style breakfast is also well worth the money, lots of options and all really yummy (aside from the coffee machine, this needs an upgrade for sure 😅) highly recommend if you are wanting to visit sovereign hill!

In our room there was only one PowerPoint for a family with multiple phones and tablets sharing one PowerPoint. Disappointed that shower had a curtain as water went everywhere. Great location for sovereign hill village and easy access. At times not enough parking. Breakfast appeared to be expensive for children as well
