Hidden gem in the Yarra Valley. Received an upgraded room which was fantastic!
Pros:

Have stayed here a few times before as a stop over to Melbourne. The location is fantastic ( close to many wineries ect ), the hotel is very quiet and feels very calm and welcoming. Lovely looking out to the gardens and a great buffet breakfast. Will definitely be booking a visit here again in the future.

Cons:

Nothing really. Looking forward to our next stay.

Pros:

I love the location of this hotel. The staff at Bella Restaurant were very friendly. We had dinner there and it was delicious. Our breakfast was also excellent — we really enjoyed the variety. Our room was clean, quiet, and well‑equipped with everything we needed.

Cons:

The only suggestion we have is that the bathroom could use a moisturizer or body lotion, as none was provided.
