Get away so close to Brissie
Pros:

Just one night at clear mountain is all it takes to refresh and rejuvenate! We hit the day spa for 90 min, had dinner and brekkie in the restaurant and breathed. So close too!

Disappointing
Pros:

The location and views are fabulous.

Cons:

The walls are paper thin. We paid for one of the higher priced rooms but could hear the telephone conversation of the person next door.
The pool was disappointing and there were only 2 sun loungers for the entire hotel.
The restaurant is under renovation but the food was underwhelming and extraordinarily expensive for what was on offer, particularly the breakfast.

Great location, it’s a must see!
Pros:

Lovely place! Great location & lovely staff!
It’s definitely not a place to take a suitcase! Heaps of stairs and parking is quite far away from where you stay. Apart from that nice place!

Cons:

Nothing

Not worth it. Find an air Bnb close by to stay in the lovely area.
Pros:

Beds are comfy and location is obviously lovely in the valley

Cons:

Man is this place run down. Been here a few times over the last decade or so and it just gets more and more run down. Hopefully as it transitions into Peppers, they will fix the place up. Rooms are run down and overall resort is run down. Bathroom door didn't shut and the taps make a piercing sound through the walls whenever other people turn on any water including ours. For some reason there is 2 dogs on site which are what I'm assuming belong to a person who lives on site. That would be fine if they didn't bark at all hours through the night. Was awful. We mainly stayed there for the balcony restaurant which is closed but not notified of that until after you book... funny that. The temporary restaurant is terrible and food matches that situation. We wanted to book into the spa and reception couldn't even tell us if it was open and it was left to us to find out if they're on site spa was open..... we didn't even bother. Won't be back. Total crap now. Good luck peppers. Hopefully you turn the crappy mercure into a new haven.
