Great location and wonderful private access from accommodation to sovereign hill. Rooms we were expecting to be basic, but really they could do with new mattresses on the main bed! I’d say they are old as the hotel but they haven’t kept their charm like the beautiful hotel has! I actually ended up sleeping in the kids bunk bed because it was a better mattress. Other than this it has everything you need, the old vibes, great staff, great location and warm on a winters day.
