The Hotel takes you back to a time of old world elegance .The accommodation and dinner package was wonderful value. We had a glass of wine in the downstairs lounge before dinner, which consisted of a bottle of wine and two courses. They were helpful with some difficult dietary requirements. The staff attitudes ranged from cool (becoming warm and ultimately... More

Like all other reviews, this hotel is not short on elegance. We've stayed at quite a few heritage hotels around Victoria and I must say, this is one of the best. All the pros we read were true. Our superior room, # 212, wasn't very spacious but was comfortable and very clean. However, the bed was a bit too soft,... More

The hotel presents very nicely and the renovation is not without style and taste. However the reception area is a tiny desk beyond which you can see a hideous bank of poker machines.

After declining the invite to join a 45 minute guided tour of the hotel... More

Upon request, we were upgraded to a larger room at no charge and were also provided with a DVD player which the manager himself set up for us. Room: The room (number... More

I STAYED at Craig’s Royal Hotel for just one night and that wasn’t near enough time to really enjoy this elegant property. From the minute you walk in the front door you really appreciate the bygone beauty of this historic hotel, and I even enjoyed sitting in the lobby while my group waited for someone to check us in. I... More

We stayed here for the Queen's Birthday weekend - our first weekend as just a couple having left our teenage son at home with the dog! Things we liked were the friendly reception we received ( the hard working manager seemed to be there at all hours over the weekend and not at all phased by the peculiarities of Landrover... More
