View over Stingaree Bay from our room was a delight to wake up to. Whilst the rooms are a bit dated they are comfortable with everything you need. The staff were very friendly and the meals in the bar were great. Quick access to the Port Arthur Historical Sites.

10/10 Exceptional

What a great hotel. We weren’t sure what to expect after reading some of the reviews, however this hotel was perfectly themed for the location. Exceptional view to the lake that was so beautiful on first light. Coffee machine in the room was great and the air conditioner/heater provided a perfect nights sleep. The restaurant food was delicious. The steak and lamb cutlets were delicious. A port by the fireplace was a perfect finale to the night. We can’t wait to come back.

Loved the look of the property. I can't describe how much I loved the look of the place. Staff were great. Beautiful surroundings, very picturesque. Lots of parking. Accommodation was comfortable and had everything I needed. The only bad thing is I wish the curtains were wider, they didn't quite cover the windows but I made it work. Would stay here again
