雅拉谷大飯店(Yarra Valley Grand Hotel)

It’s quite centrally located and there’s a bar just right below the stay. Room has bath tub, and looks very grand. However overall hotel is quite old. 1. Car park has lots of potholes, must drive super carefully to avoid them. Car park location is not ideally located, we have to park outside the hotel at the door step unload and park at the car park 2. No lift so we have to climb the stairs with our heavy luggages 3. Aircon is abit old as well, gives off sounds in the middle of the night.

Breakfast was very poor.

To be honest, our stay was curtailed by a water supply issue. We were told the water would be off for 4 hours so we found another hotel and checked out before our first night. Andrew was very helpful and sympathetic to our plight and arranged a full refund. As to the hotel itself, it was not as Grand as the name suggested. A bit run down and in need of a refurb. Staff (in particular Andrew) were excellent though.

Very happy with our stay, comfortable room and big clean bathroom. Had everything we needed in the room for our stay. Was very happy with our breakfast. The hotel was charming

Stayed overnight for an early morning balloon ride, which was the perfect location for the scheduled meeting place, being a 2 minute walk up the road. We stayed in the Melba Suite, which really could not be considered a suite, however, it was very clean and comfortable, except fo the old four poster bed, which squeaked and squarked with every move. And it was the same for the old creaking staircase leading upstairs to the rooms! Parking is in an open dirt carpark beside the pub and accessible by everyone attending the pub. Overall I feel the overnight stay was overpriced for what you get.

We had an excellent stay. Exceed our expectations. The bed was comfy. Meals were suberb and we enjoyed playing thr board games that were on offer. Will stay again.

Steeped in history and alive with vibe ! We were greeted with the best service possible - even asked if my bag needed carrying up stairs :) We were very lucky to squeeze in for dinner and we were not disappointed - entree was the japanese pancakes which were a delight and for mains the barra was sensational and the mash creamy and salted to perfection. The wait staff were THE most EFFICIENT, helpful and hard working i have had the pleasure to watch work the floor - a credit to them all. We elected to stay in the tower room and it was amazing, eclectic and full of surprises and treasures. We would definitely stay again and thank you for such an experience.

We arrived after 2pm for a wedding and our room when we got in was not cleaned. We had to go for a drink to wait for cleaning to be done. As wedding was at 4 ,didn’t leave much time for us to get ready. Air conditioning was poor . Overall not a great experience

Beautiful area and hotel with it’s rustic charm. The staff were welcoming and helpful. We managed to visit two lovely vineyards and had wonderful lunches. If you don’t have your own transport then you need to book cabs well in advance.
