Guest Reviews

• Lorenzon (10/5): - Very clean loved it Everything
• Vineesh (9/5): -
• Joachim (10/5): Ein Schmuckstück in Portland - Diese liebevoll eingerichtete Unterkunft mit langjähriger Tradition ist etwas ganz besonderes. Gediegene Gästezimmer mit guter Ausstattung einschließlich beheizbarer Matratzenauflagen, dazu ein herrlicher Gemeinschafts-Salon für die Gäste und ein Wintergarten. Das I-Tüpfelchen ist die sehr herzliche Gastgeberin, bei der wir uns äußerst wohlgefühlt haben. Da fällt mir nichts ein.
• Astrid (10/5): Schöner Aufenthalt, klare Empfehlung! - Victoria House ist ein im victorianischen Stil eingerichtetes Gästehaus. Man fühlt sich in die Zeit der Downton Abbey zurück versetzt. Es gab einen Aufenthaltsraum, in dem man den Abend bei einem Sherry oder Portwein beenden konnte. Betten mit ausreichend Kissen waren sehr gut. Kann das Haus nur empfehlen! War alles toll
• Marco (9/5): -
• Alison (9/5): - The connecting rooms were lovely.
• Penelope Clare (8/5): - Interesting historic property in a great position Nothing
• Gail (8/5): Nice & comfortable - Nice & handy to the pub for dinner There was nothing wrong with it
• Eglinton (8/5): -
• Rita (7/5): -
• Alistair (10/5): -
• Alan (10/5): -
• Linda (10/5): - Easy to arrive late and get the key from the lock box. Bed was very comfortable. Nice to have a night cap in the sitting room. Such a cute place.
• Wayne (10/5): -
• Jane (10/5): Enjoyed everything about Vicoria house..thank you Mandy and John - Victoria house was so conveniently located to the shops and the beach, Mandy and John were so welcoming and made sure everything was perfect.. Our rooms were so clean and the beds so comfortable, you just know a lot of love goes into Victoria house.. Such a beautiful place..
• hickman (10/5): Staff lovely, accommodation great, location and so beautiful - Didn't have Breakfast Everything
• Coulter (3/5): Very disappointing, clearly this room needs some maintenace and upgrading to achieve basic standards - Old world charm The charm stopped at old world because of the condition of the room. The carpet was warn and dirty. Window locks were broken and there was no screen. Blind was broken and had to be held down by string. Plastic shower curtain on a bent rail was substandard. Post-it note to operate the toilet was novel, as was using the toaster under the verandah. Night lighting was lacking making it dangerous when leaving the room after dark. Some sensor lights are required. No off street parking.
• David (9/5): Great old house very comfortable - Great old house loved it
• WEIQING (9/5): 整间屋子装扮的非常漂亮 - 整个屋子无论从公共区域还是房间都布置的非常漂亮 一进大门我们就惊呆了 氛围非常温馨 狗狗和猫咪特别可爱 花园也打理的井井有条 中国的朋友和国际的朋友请放心入住！我们都舍不得离开想多待几天 房东也很热情好客 地理位置很好 门口就是大海 美好的住宿体验让我们的旅行更加丰富！ Everything is good!唯一的遗憾是没空尝到早餐 希望以后还能来到美丽的portland
• John (10/5): - Every thing was as ordered Location as it’s by the harbour with easy walking to the sea views and lighthouse
• Paul (10/5): Great stay Great Location - great bed and linen nothing
• Rob (10/5): - The house is just fantastic. Beautiful rooms, all very tastefully furnished. There is so much to see. There is a lovely garden and a friendly dog and a cat that keeps on asking for more hugs. There is a room where you can sit with other guests and have a sherry or port. Mandy is a fantastic host. She can give you good tips about where to go in Portland and beyond.
• Kate (10/5): Such a charming home not like a hotel. The nicest hotel I have ever seen in Australia - Everything. The most beautiful house all the antiques, the charming lounge rooms and amazing garden. Nothing
• haiyan (7/5): 体验还是不错，孩子喜欢！ - 房间小了一点！ 老板娘可能出游去了，照顾不是很周到！
• Erica (8/5): Comfy stay for a night in Portland - Cute little share stay house, check in was pretty easy after hours. View was gorgeous in morning. Clean and very quaint. Great price for the location and room quality

• Libby (10/5): Quiet, calm, steeped in colonial history. - Great location. Mandy is friendly, knowledgeable and caring. The general vibe is calm, quiet, and contemplative. Read a lot while it rained. Lots of places to sit, inside and out, read, work, chat. Breakfast was great. Lily and 'puss' an added bonus! Everything was great.
• Melanie (10/5): -
• Katharina (8/5): -
• Leanne.P. (9/5): - Fabulous old style accommodation. Loved the garden out back. Had everything we needed
• Marcel Wai (9/5): - Cozy and classic hotel. Near to the waterfront, eateries and shops. Perfect location and quiet too. It was very windy on the first night and the windows were rattling.

• Cat_R (8/5): Great Old Building - The Victoria house is a fantastic old building that has been renovated. The rooms are large and well appointed. The hosts were very friendly and helpful with local information. The bed wasn't to my liking.
• Leanne (10/5): Great B&B with historic flare - This is definitely one of Portland's best B&B accommodations. The property is just beautiful, well maintained with perfect restorations to its age. So much history and photos of days gone by. Mandy is the lovely hostess. Lilly the dog and Puss the cat are a gorgeous addition to greet you outdoors in the spectacular gardens. Perfect Location. There's nothing not to like here. They even provide rainwater so you don't have to drink the town's nasty tasting water, which is the only downfall to Portland, their drinking water.
• Leonie (9/5): -
• Helen (8/5): Interesting guest house - a bit different but good for a one night stay - This is a heritage property and history about the place made for an interesting stay. Mandy was a great host. The guest lounge with port & fruit cake was an unexpected bonus and the little garden was delightful. The plumbing! What a noise when showering for any of the guests. Rooms and beds are quaint but not luxurious
• BING (7/5): -
• mark (10/5): Outstanding hosts making us all so very welcome. The personal touch still matters and you will do well to better staying - The restoration was beautiful and a wonderful cozy place to stay

• axel (10/5): -

• Susan (8/5): Very good - Beautiful heritage blue stone house circa 1850's . Walking through the front door was like walking back in time. Tastefully decorated with furnishings that complement the home. Lovely gardens and welcoming hosts made a enjoyable overnight stay. It's just a short walk from the accommodation to the town centre. Nothing to add.
• Ron (9/5): Another special place to stay on our Road Trip. Portland is a wonderful town - Victoria House was first an Accommodation House/Hotel built circa 1850's and was so special. Decor was old and vintage style to compliment the building and that was special. Lounge room with and open fire and complementary sherry and port. Breakfast all homemade. One day not enough. Portland tram ride and so much history and thinks to see. We only booked one night
