Wunderbares Hotel in den Adelaide-Hügeln mit viel Ambiente
Pros:

Großartiges Hotel in den Hügeln von Adelaide; traditionsreiches Haus mit Charakter und Charme; Zimmer und Frühstück ausgezeichnet.

Cons:

Allein bei einem Abendessen im Hotel war das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis aus unserer Sicht nicht ganz angemessen.

Relaxing, luxurious honeymoon trip.
Pros:

Breakfast was fantastic - there was a chia pudding which had really interesting delicious flavourings, and there was a good selection of vegetarian options, with the staff able to adjust the menu on request. Views from the restaurant were gorgeous.

Cons:

There was a strong smoke and incense type smell filling our room one night. However, the staff were very helpful and moved us into another room.

Relaxing and comfortable.
Pros:

The breakfast was very good, and as expected the location in the hills was beautiful with great views

Cons:

The bathroom was a little on the small side but adequate. The shower water overflowed onto the floor. The lavatory seat was ill fitting and loose, and although the staff were incredibly helpful in trying to get it fixed, it needed an experienced plumber who didn't seem to be available.

Our 50th birthday treat

Christopher and the team were very attentive. We were made to feel at home as soon as we arrived. We had an immediate connection with the house and the afternoon history and tour session was a great way to learn about its past.

What a stunning location, comfortable accomodation with breathtaking views. We had a very relaxing stay, wined & dined. We were very well looked after by the fabulous staff, a shout out to Chris, Will, Lachlan, Angus and Kai who helped us select fabulous wines to share with our dinner.

82nd Birthday
Pros:

An experience not to be missed!
A magnificent building that has remained prominent across a vast span of time. The architectural style has had an enduring presence in the district. I was greeted on arrival by a hospitable Will , followed by General Manager Chris who was warm and welcoming. He presented an informative talk and history tour of Mt Lofty House with passion, knowledge and humour. I found all the hospitality staff to be efficient , friendly and professional including Fraser, Kye and Angus. With a special mention to Leo for the amazing cocktail. Exquisite food and service ! 10 out of 10 ! Exceptional in every way

Amazing Birthday Visit
Pros:

Could not rate this beautiful accomodation house more highly. Impeccable in every way - rooms, dining , bar , indoor and outdoor areas , all exceptional. The staff we came across superb. The very efficient and extremely charming Chris and Will invited us in and Chris gave an informative tour at 4:30pm. Fraser. Angus and Kye took care of our wine and dining needs. They assisted my 82 year old mother with humour and grace. She really enjoyed herself. Simply must be put in your diary to visit.
