We were there only to sleep, did not have time to look around the facilities.
Pros:

Location is great for what we needed. Right in the middle of the vinyard's. Our 1st room had a blocked toilet. I tried to call the reception as we were heading out about 15mins after check in till 11pm that night, It took me a few calls to get through. They called me back not long after saying we will be moving rooms and a new key will be in the lockbox when we return later tonight. We then had to pack up and move everything just before midnight. But it was easy enough. The location is very quite.

Cons:

The main bedroom side table lights were very flicky and felt like they may have a problem. Also no shower curtin/screen made the floor quite wet

Pros:

Very centric and close to everything

Cons:

it was very noisy (the pipes made noise all night and was very hard to get any sleep, also the sofa bed was broken we couldn’t even sleep on it, I got a little baby and I had to use the bed rest for my back when I was nursing my baby it was so squeaky and noisy. We have stayed here before and it has always been very nice but this time was so bad we couldn’t get any sleep for the 3 nights of our stay.

Great budget stay in the Hunter
Pros:

Staff were super friendly, close location to hunter valley wineries and clean

Cons:

Nothing too serious. The facilities are a little dated but it still represents good value. Would have loved a map to find my room as I did get a little lost wandering around but not an issue.

Memorable Stay with Hot Air Balloons and Lakeside Views
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at Leisure Inn. The location is excellent, making it easy to explore the surrounding attractions while enjoying a peaceful and scenic setting.
The rooms were spacious, clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, providing a relaxing place to unwind after a day of sightseeing. The facilities were also great and catered well to our needs throughout the stay.
One of the highlights was the beautiful views from the property. We were lucky enough to watch hot air balloons floating across the sky in the morning, which made for a truly memorable experience. The lake added to the charm, with ducks and swans gracefully gliding across the water, creating a lovely and tranquil atmosphere.
Overall, a fantastic place to stay with a great combination of convenience, comfort, scenery, and value. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Pros:

Always a comfortable experience, this was our 2nd stay at Leisure Inn.

Cons:

Some of the paths are somewhat uneven, with sloping edges, so walking with care (and baggage) is necessary!
