Its a grand old place, well located and with lots to offer but needs to be loved. the building is stunning, elegantly furnished to suit the period, Staff and manager are lovely too. close to a lot of great wineries.

the grand is a beautiful old building but needs a lot of TLC. our room was stunning but upon my husband sitting on the bed, the one side came crashing down. the frame supporting the slats sheared off. also the water pressure in the showers needs to be addressed. a lot of the areas look tired and in need of paint. also some pruning needs to be done to remove the climbers that are growing over some windows.

Staff were super friendly, and the room was so clean and tidy! We received a free bottle of wine with our stay which was a great bonus, and there was also free brekky (although my partner and I were too lazy and slept in haha). We had dinner there as well, and we were given a table in a quiet corner by the fire which was soooo cosy, especially on such a cold winter night. We felt well taken care of! The hotel is a beautiful historic building and was only 10 mins away from a winery we went to for lunch, and close to Healesville as well. There are also plenty of options around to eat as well, but the restaurant on site is worth it!

Unfortunately the mattress was very uncomfortable for us! And if you have a shower, you'll need to have it on for a while before the hot water clicks in otherwise you'll end up frozen like me haha! But that's obviously something that can easily be resolved if you don't jump in right away! Haha

Such a beautiful establishment! I fell in love with the place as soon as I entered the property! The staff were wonderful and very helpful.

Cob webs on the inside of the windows in our room (perhaps a reflection of the "old" rustic Charm of the property....) and the incredibly loud noise that woke us on our first morning, which was possibly coming from the pipes when a neighbouring room was showering. The hot water was also a bit touch and go when showering.This may very well be expected for such an old property (circa. 1888), however, having this fixed to provide comfort to future guests may be a great consideration 😀 Other than this, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

A heritage listed establishment with a very comfortable balcony suite (2 rooms),with a verandah access and views over the street. Very comfortable bed and nice linen/pillows. Aircon great as the night was chilly. Shower over the bath with excellent hot water delivery. Good quality continental breakfast with the host supplying a barista coofee of you choice.

For the ladies, the absence of a lighted make up mirror in the bathroom.

Lovely original building, super clean room, warm and cosy on a chilly night, came with a hand written note and a lovely gift of bed socks which I didn't actually need as the room was lovely and toasty, and a bottle of red. Great and tasty meal options in the restaurant. Continental breakfast was also complementary. Good barista coffee made for me in the morning. All staff were super friendly, helpful and welcoming and facilitated a late check in with out any problem.

Room was clean, comfortable and quiet. All amenities you could need, even earplugs. Well located. Really well priced. Staff were friendly. We would stay again. Did use breakfast as we had to leave early but was great inclusion.

After hours entrance could be paved, not great for heels. Wasn’t sure where to leave keys upon early morning departure. Main entrance is quite dark and does not give you the greatest first impression. Could do with a slightly gully bigger bin.

Great Location. Fantastic staff. Well stocked and equipped kitchen. Great space for a large family. Nice to have books and board games / cards etc. Good supply of pool towels. Kids loved the pool! Plenty of sheets and pillows. Comfy sofas. Very clean property.

Some maintenance needed on property - some door handles loose / broken. Some light bulbs in lamps / ceiling lights need replacing. Pool was cold but it is technically early spring in Victoria so cant complain! Mattresses on beds felt like they could do with an upgrade.

A big room, recently renovated, painted and carpeted throughout the hotel. Continental breakfast was included. Friendly staff.

The wardrobe in the bedroom with the fridge and kettle was too dark, had to plug the kettle in the bathroom. We ate in the restaurant the food was very good but the menus, salt and pepper shakers were really grubby, they need a good clean.

The bed was very comfortable and the room very quiet. The bathroom was clean and tidy, however I didn't like the shower over the bath as I felt it was a risk to slip and fall. Breakfast was excellent, fresh and satisfiying. I would certainly stay there again

Remove the bath and just have a shower in it'd place. Much safer

The beautiful old pub/hotel is full of character with rooms carefully decorated in keeping with the era. They were clean and cosy. The staff were very friendly and professional. We also had dinner in the hotel and enjoyed a continental breakfast in the morning which was more than adequate. We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay.

It met our expectations.
