Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is surrounded by beautiful nature and conveniently close to the railway station, making it easy to explore the area. The rooms are spacious and offer a relaxing atmosphere, but unfortunately, there were no complimentary toothpaste available. The service was attentive with nice extra touches, like welcome drinks and tour assistance. However, the proximity to the railway could be bothersome due to noise, and the lack of nearby amenities is a drawback.
The hotel is nestled right next to the Bundanoon railway station, making it conveniently close to the train station for easy access to Southern Highlands attractions. The rooms are cozy with original wooden furniture, perfect for family board games, and the service offers a warm welcome drink and assistance with tours and tickets. However, the very remote location lacks nearby shops and restaurants, and the dining atmosphere lacks variety with only freshly baked bread available.
I stayed at this hotel with my family and found the rooms to have a lived-in feel, perfect for the kids to play some board games. The hotel had character, but unfortunately, we couldn't find any free toothpaste before our departure.
