“A Very Pleasant Mothers Day.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 May 2013 NEW

We first shared this experience of High Tea, with some friends from Irvine, CA., back in February. Our delight at the atmosphere, surroundings and service, was to be shared again. We did not hesitate to share our pleasant experience once again for Mothers Day, during which a very relaxing time was enjoyed by all. Many comments of ours have already... More

“Great ambience, slow service”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 March 2013

We were a party of 11 adults and 3 children. We booked for 11:30 am with a view to an early lunch. The lounge is open, light, airy, sumptuous and beautifully furnished. The gardens are also beautiful. The food was well made and presented. The high tea was a bit expensive at $55 for a round of sandwiches and selection... More

“Great atmosphere and good hotel food”

Took the family to the Lounge on Sunday evening as there was nothing much open in Katoomba. Found a great dining room with lounges and traditional dining tables overlooking the luscious green gardens of the Hotel. Ordered Wagyu beef burger and a chocolate souffle, the wife had the same. Good childrens menu as well. Service was attentive and quick. Food... More

“Tired”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 January 2013

Needs seriously sprucing up and better seating for when you're eating as the low couches and tables make things challenging. Could be lovely with some TLC.

We liked the salmon dishes from specially farmed fish. Also, the stakes were just great. The service was rather slow and required prompting. The prices very high.
