- Lesley (10/5): Great value, great position, easy to get to, right in town. - Large room with a lovely ensuite bathroom. Tea and coffee making facilities. Discounts off food and drinks in the hotel. The meals were delicious and well presented and cooked. Personally I didn’t like the stairs to the room but that is a minor negative.
- Peter (8/5): Great location for someone just passing through on their way to Sydney - It was what we were looking for for a short term overnight stay Nothing it was as expected essentially it was an old pub
- Julie (9/5): Great value and great spot - The room was so nice and comfortable Nothing really
- Tracey (6/5): It was convenient - Good location No breakfast
- Melinda (8/5): Really nice accommodation above an average pub - Room was new, clean, comfortable and it had a fantastic comfortable bed. Great sized room, new bathroom and good air conditioning. Would definitely stay there again. Band was on at night and it was very loud as we were up the end just above it but we were tired so we both went straight to sleep in a set break. Pub downstairs is not upmarket or as nice as the hotel rooms but ok.
- Jamie (10/5): Well priced with comfy rooms - Easy to find, comfortable room and reasonably priced. Room service from the pub below was an added bonus, with well priced food and drinks. Would definitely stay here again if we needed to be in fairy meadow!

- Melissa (5/5): -
- Stefanus (8/5): -
- Anne (7/5): - The room was clean and comfortable, the staff were very friendly and helpful and the instructions to access the property were very clear. It was quite a long way from the car to our room and up a set of stairs (no lift) but a staff member did offer to help with our bags 😊
- Adrian (7/5): - Comfortable bed. No noise from pub bar below. Great breakfast restaurant across the road. Free drink voucher on check-in No lift and lots of steps to get up to the accommodation floor. Reception was just a cupboard in a corridor and the doors to get into reception had security locks. So it was hard to see what to do on arrival
- Tayla (10/5): It was lovely, the staff was lovely, they made sure we were comfortable over the Christmas break why no one was there. W - It was lovely for a pub, the room was spacious, the staff was lovely N/A
- Prab (9/5): -
- Watcharapong (8/5): -
- Robin (4/5): Wouldn't stay there again!!! - The Bar area, Served food witch was OK.
unfortunately the lay out of the place, was unfortunately the Passage from the door with a Key!!! And the tall flight of Stairs was unacceptable for 2 Older People. Entrance, Hallway was a bit Out dated. And scruffy!And then the very high Stairs was unacceptable for two Pensioners carrying there overnight Luggage.
- Emily (10/5): -
- Misan (1/5): -
- Brian (8/5): Very unexpected good quality, small rooms. - I expected much lower standard. Windows double glazed, modern bathroom and good bed. The room was small, but it was just somewhere to sleep. Check in was very basic, as was access to the rooms from ground level.
- Andrew (8/5): -
- Greg (1/5): Worked all day needed a shower but no hot water, how can this happen, left a note on the vanity before leaving in the mo - NO HOT WATER

- Bernadette (8/5): - Very friendly and helpful staff. My room was clean and functional. The bed was so comfy.
I ordered the Charli burger for dinner. Very tasty. Rooms are above the pub. A little noise carried up but very minimal. The stairs were a bit of a problem for me personally.
