Closure of the restaurant with no warning completely ruined our stay.
Cons:

Booked for a special occasion expecting dinner at the restaurant as part of the occasion only to be told at check-in that the restaurant was closed. There was nowhere within walking distance to eat so we were forced to drive to the local supearket and buy nibbly things to eat in the room. No crockery or cutlery.

Unreliable, Terrible Example of Australian Hospitality
Pros:

We booked this establishment many, many, months ago for
the 7,8th March 26 , as an end highlight finish to our Australia adventure, bringing our month
tour to a fitting finale .
Looking forward to experience the “ Chateau and Fine Dining “
This was not to be !
On Wednesday 4 March , we received an email informing us
that all dining for the week had been cancelled !
We got in touch ,we were told that breakfast was still available and meals maybe available at other local establishments.
Considering it was a Bank holiday long weekend it was unlikely that many other establishments would have availability.
We didn’t want our last few days of our holiday, chasing around looking for an evening
meal , instead of having a relaxing meal and drinks as a couple having the “ Chateau Experience “ so we cancelled our whole stay .
We managed to find alternative
stay , but not in the area we had planned for , as we were due to ride on the Puffin Billy !
So we wasn’t able to use the non refundable tickets ( all are non refundable)
So it cost us significantly more
thank you Chateau Yering , not
only did you spoil , what should of been a memorable weekend.
We lost the cost of the PB tickets and incurred significantly extra costs .

SO IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING
BOOKING THIS CHATEAU , THERE IS A CHANCE YOU GET A DIFFERENT EXPERIENCE THAN EXPECTED!

And add insult to injury , we received an email requesting feedback on our recent stay !
Not professional and a terrible
insult to the Australian Hospitality Industry.
Go elsewhere !

Pros:

Location in the valley was central and good. It was a pleasure and relief to stay in a hotel that had rooms that were not made of what I call plastic and without any attraction. The suites we were in had what most people would call old fashioned furniture, beds and bathrooms. Not just a standard room with a desk, big screen tv and and a shower that hotels nowadays standardise. We appreciated our stay and can recommend the hotel to likeminded people with an appreciation of the old, romantic days of travel.

We have stayed here on previous occasions, but this stay was extremely disappointing.
Pros:

Location was idyllic. The young man in the dining room was friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The bed was uncomfortable, with a saggy mattress which should have been replaced long ago. The couch also visibly sagged and was unfit to be in the room. Air-conditioning was not working. Maintenance was not up to standard.

Lovely accommodation that suited our needs.
Pros:

Excellent location - close to all the wineries. Luxurious bathroom products.
Plenty of extra guest accessories, eg, towels, bottled water, toilet paper.

Cons:

TV - not all channels worked. Far too small for such a large space.
Didn’t try any meals at the property as there was no information pack in the room to explain them.

Great place, conveniently located with really friendly staff and a great deal of old world character
Pros:

We loved the old world charm and the big comfortable spacious rooms. It felt like stepping back in time to a bygone era. The Chateau was perfectly located for our wedding at Zonzo estate and near Yarra Glenn, but also right next door to Yering Station and some other very good wineries.

Cons:

It was a disappointing that staff shortages meant that the bar was closed early - we would have loved a nightcap or two in the old bar room.
