Pros:

The fire place, chesterfield sofas, mulled wine.

Cons:

There was no heating. The electric blanket only worked on one side of the double bed. The room was cold. We informed the staff and they said the central heating wasn't working on our wing. They said heating was due to be fixed the next day. (Sunday?) All the smaller heaters had been given out to other guests. It was a bit rough to not inform guests before they arrive that the heating wasn't working, in the Blue Mountains, in the winter! We made the best of it though, and the manager did buy my mulled wine when he saw me at the bar.

Fantastic place for relaxing weekend.
Pros:

The place is alive. Old charm decor with comfortable sofas and fireplaces. Good restaurant and pub. Meters away from the train station. Life music every second weekend on Saturday during a day with dancing. A short drive to the apple orchard (only Saturdays) and Megalong Valley. Plus, other well-known places for views and walking.

Cons:

Irregular droplets from the gutter during a light rain hitting the gutter during the night. Otherwise, nothing to mention.

Amazing pub lots of history and memorabilia. Nice for an out of town stay. LOVELY staff.
Pros:

We loved the pub downstairs- so much character. The rooms were perfect for a nights rest

Cons:

The noise when trying to sleep. But it’s a pub. It’s noisy.

Comfortable, lovely stay
Pros:

Convenient , affordable and comfortable.
My stay was really comfortable and nice.

Bed had electric blanket for warmth. Room was quite warm and cozy considering there was no heating.

Shout out to the staff member, was professional and understanding, was really helpful in room relocation (was crying baby for hours! No fault of the accommodation but it doesn't help for rest and sleep).
My original room was great, only because of the crying baby I requested a move. And thank God because I had best sleep post that☺️

Parking available on site.
