“There is effort being made to modernize the hotel which is great. We stayed in the double queen room and it was a bit more modern and warm and a good size. Some of the other rooms are quite outdated in terms of furniture. A bar fridge in every room would be good as would more places to put clothes etc The cafe is cute and does yummy coffee. Would love for it to be open every morning. I would recommend my room to others but not sure about some of the other rooms. This hotel has big potential! ”

“Great hotel with character, beautifully decorated halls and lounge areas, lovely views from the lounges, great bar. Breakfast was lovely, coffee was great! Staff seemed to be rushed on arrival and not everything was explained. Only other negative is that Thurs is advertised as “burger special night”, but even though there are 3 burgers listed under the heading “Burgers” on the menu, the special only applies to one burger. The vegetarian option (broad bean burger) didn’t have a formed burger Pattie, just some broad beans and sauces, it was small and overpriced. Otherwise a very enjoyable stay. ”

“It was the great place to relax and unwind. Furnishings, the bed everything delightfully decorated. Garden was amazing. View from the room was fabulous. Lady host was cold and irritating however husband was welcoming and helpful. Thanks for operating a wonderful place. ”

“Comfy bed, yummy breakfast and superb host. ”

“Immaculately presented! Every detail has been well thought out and is pleasing to the eye. The Staff were so pleasant and welcoming! I've already recommended it to friends as a wonderful place to stay as well as eating in at the gorgeous cafe! ”

“We are a family 2ad, 3ch that stayed at River Run Lodge for 1 night. The room was fine space wise for our family of 5. We stayed at the start of winter and unfortunately the heater lacked the ability to actually heat our entire room and there is no electric blankets to compensate for the lack of heating. We did have our own minky blankets which we brought along which helped the situation a little but overall the beds where uncomfortable you can feel the springs and everyone complained of being cold. The place is aesthetically nice on the eye but the comforts lacked. It rained whilst we were there which nothing you can do about the rain but seeing as there is no bathrooms or kitchens attached to the units umbrellas or covered walk ways would be great to get to other facilities. The kitchen and common area is certainly well equipped however lack any kind of cleaning. We literally could not use the kitchen until we washed up and dryer other peoples stuff. There was crumbs over all the tables and floor and on the couches. We spent easily an hour cleaning up to make our dinner to than clean up again to then have two grubby blokes come in behind us and leave it a mess again and not clean up after themselves! Maybe a camera installed an a $250 cleaning fee or something would sort this kind of crap out - not on the owners of the place just explain what type of people you might run into if you stay here! ”
