Ok if you want to be close to the golf course and prefer hotel service. Breakfast and coffee don't start till 7.30 so if you are an early riser, this isnt for you. Airconditioning in our room sucked every bit of moisture and left us hoarse in the morning, the shower didn't stay at head height and slipped down the rail, and furnishing are very basic. I understand being strata titled, unit/room owners are probably very difficult to get money out of for updates, but it is needed.

Good hotel, average service

Hotel is in a Great location and in the heart of the Barossa region. A few missing ammenities and poor service is what made me review as 4 star (almost 3 star) Hotel didn’t have a wine bottle opener that we could have on loan in the room - I mean really it had a kitchenette with everything else and being a wine region people are going to drink wine in the room. And most upsetting was the restaurant that couldn’t give us a table for dinner - despite visibly having half a dozen tables set up and available. People ate and left and they still refused to seat us because the ‘waitress would be overwhelmed’ in her section!!! Really!!! We sat there for 90mins eating bar bites and throughout this time they couldn’t find a table to seat 2 people. Staff need better training on how to manage their restaurant.

The property is a standard Novotel. For a place like the Barossa, it is disappointing that it has very little local character or warmth. In fact, the Reception and dining room are very much like a nursing home.
