This was good value for money. Clean and spacious. One of the globes over the mirror needing changing - flashed on and off but in fairness I didn't report it to the Tavern. Bottom sheet was small and not able to be tucked in at the sides, a little troublesome. Was a bit noisy but not excessive - it is a Tavern after all. Would happily stay again. People friendly, dining options very good.

I was pleasantly surprised. Most Tavern/hotel rooms are very basic, with often shared bathrooms etc. This had it all. Good value for money also.

We had an enjoyable meal in the restaurant. Our room was clean and spacious. Check in at the pokies bar was a bit unusual and there was no obvious signage on the exterior of the building to indicate it was the Mitchell River Tavern. Also, the lack of a lift to our room upstairs was an inconvenience for bringing in luggage.

We loved our stay since it was the perfect Australian hotel that we imagined an Australian hotel would be. It was clean, had a great dining room, very helpful staff, and a great bathroom in our queen suite. We will stay there again and will recommend it to all our Californian friends

The property had just been painted on the outside, so there was no name on the front of the building, but it was fine

Nice little country tavern
It was a 1-night stopover on our way from the Snowy Mountains down to Melbourne. For the price that we paid, we could not fault it too much. There were a whole lot of stairs to climb from the basement car-park up to our room. Room was a little cramped but was clean and tidy. The bathroom was a good size and had been renovated. So was the corridor. Overall the place was in very good condition.
