The staff are wonderful and very accommodating, cannot speak highly enough of their service. The building has a charm to it and the history is very interesting. Breakfast was fantastic.

Whilst it is fitting with the era of the building, stepping up into the bath to have a shower wasn’t ideal.

Beautiful building and grounds, friendly staff, very comfortably room and well located. The tennis court is also a bonus!

The swimming pool wasn’t in very good shape, while I’m sure it was perfectly safe, my wife didn’t want to swim in it

the Convent is the place we go to when visiting the Hunter, we originally went there as a treat, now it’s become the place we stay at whenever in the Hunter, it’s so lovely to see the same staff each time, and especially nice when they remember us. must do when staying is eat at Circa 1876 you won’t be disappointed

Beautiful building and lovely room. We had a lovely balcony and watched multiple kangaroos in the morning just below.

Pool area could have been cleaned so it was more comfortable to relax around.
