Worth stopping at
A short 2 night stay on our way from Sydney back to Brisbane after Christmas. Great location to be able to walk everywhere. The town was a buzz with holiday makers. Long wait times with food at most places as you would expect this time of the year

Room was quite small but very nice. Great quality bathroom. Very convenient location with nice view of the lake.
However The attached pub played loud music until 1 am so hard to sleep. And no parking. So I won’t be staying again even though staff are very nice.

Love the updated rooms with ensuite. Beds comfortable and clean. Good menu in the bistro and also the convenience of not having to go anywhere else for dinner after a long day of travelling. Staff very friendly as well.
