Find the Cheap Gruyere Hotels

Love, love, love this boutique hotel. It's brand new, but the winery has been here a while. The hotel opened December 2023, I believe. We LOVED it. It was exactly what we were looking for in Yarra Valley. The accommodations were AMAZING. The hotel bathroom was the most luxurious we've ever experienced. We loved the wine tastings at the winery and the dinner at the hotel was one of the best of our entire trip. We'd come back in a heartbeat, and know this is a small business/family business, so it's worth supporting.

Our 1 bedroom villa was clean and spacious overlooking the large pond that contained various water birds and at least 5 frog species that we could hear calling into the night. Breakfast (eggs, bacon, bread, juice, cereal) a bottle of wine and chocolate were in the villa when we arrived. The restaurant was also of high standard. All staff, at reception and in the restaurant were efficient and friendly. I'd love to stay again for the view over the pond with the vineyard in the background, the large, clean villa, comfortable bed, large shower and the sound of the frogs in the evening. Only thing I'd like to see improved is the showerhead which was of a standard I'd expect to find in a budget motel.

Our stay was OK in as much as the bed and bathroom were acceptable for the price. - when the price is $125 or so. The trick is while they advertise $125 a night, Friday and Saturday night the prices goes off the scale. So read your proposal, even if you're in a rush. There are lot better rooms around at around $200 or more. We stayed 4 nights and extended another - a Saturday. (Family matters nearby). The gentleman said $120 for the extra night but when I got my statement it was $189! It was then I realised I was charged that for Friday too. Re-educated in touch and go and not bothering with the receipt. Sure these prices are not exorbitant in this day an age - for a reasonable establishment. While in the room the basics were reasonable, the room had a toaster and microwave but no bread plates or cutlery, only small bowls. Asked at reception and was give some disposable cutlery and pasta bowls . Great for toast! Apparently people keep stealing them or breaking them. So charge them and have something reasonable for reasonable people! The door didn't latch either without a heft with your shoulder and then caught only by millimetres. The chain was on and the chairs in place, don't worry. The room was only serviced once during our stay after we asked. The garbage truck came at 4.00Am or so and emptied multiple skips just nearby (on the premises) with all the beeping and backing, hydraulic whining, and diesel roaring you'd probably accept at $120 odd dollars a night, but really? My partner was ready to walk in the first five minutes with her usual abuse of my miserliness. As you might have guessed, the pricing issue is what really gets up nose. The rest you probably expect and accept for a cheaper deal. But next time we're near Lilydale we may well pay $189 but we'll be looking for $189 value.

We can not recommend this motel for a stay of more than 1 night. We had frequently stayed in the Yarra Valley Motel prior to covid19 and were very satisfied. When we booked we didn't realise the motel was under new management. We booked for 1 week and payed 169 dollars per night. The room service happened once in that week.I requested the bins be emptied daily a d fresh towels daily as the weather was cold and wet and the towels didn't dry.The bins were emptied 3 times and a banana peel removed but bin not emptied on the 4th day.Fresh towels were supplied 3 times.No vacuuming or bed making or linen changes occurred during the week.There was no net curtain over the window so for privacy the blind had to be drawn and light on.There was no drawer storage or bedside lamps. 4 coat hangers were provided in the wardrobe. The bed was comfortable and the reverse cycle air conditioner adequate.The shower and bathroom did not seem to be cleaned but the basin was wiped down 3 times. We were disappointed and do not have the same experience.

It's convenient to drive by car. Follow the white road, Maroon*** HWY, and turn left to Victoria RD. Then turn left at Melba HWY and you will be left. It's perfect to avoid the high-speed route for navigation. Hotel facilities feel old, especially the pool is a bit disappointing! The hotel provides a big bed room according to my request! The welcome letters are all in Chinese :) The hotel has a free 3 boxes of instant noodles (although we have not eaten) and three bottles of Italian mineral water! Surprisingly, the four small pieces of chocolate are delicious! All breakfast, lunch and dinner are served at the hotel, full western food! Breakfast is included in the room rate, lunch and dinner for two big ones for nearly $300! The nearest winery is just a 2 minute walk from the hotel. After the hotel reception has received the voucher, you can go there for free 5 kinds of wine! The tasting staff just happened to be a little girl from Shanghai. I was very kind. I bought 6 bottles of wine (can pay Alipay or WeChat). The next day I took a baby to go to the Wildlife Nature Reserve, which is 18 minutes drive from the hotel. !

We really enjoyed our upgraded stay in the cottage, so spacious and well appointed in a delightful garden setting. The local chocolates were a delicious touch, and it was an easy walk to the attractions in town. We visited a distillery, brewery and winery in the afternoon & evening. Our host Ralph was super welcoming and friendly.

This is a very nice resort. The interior is very clean and large. Bed is comfortable and toilet is good with jacuzzi. You will see kangaroos and cockatoos outside the cottage in the morning and evening. My kids enjoy the stay very much. However you need to either cook your own meals or drive out to eat. The drive is about 15 mins.

Could have been 5 Star however after 4 nights with a wonderful experience it went to hell! Lovely ensuite site and great camp kitchen in a lovely park for 5 nights. Then a large group ( over 100) moved in with no caravan park etiquette. We had a great ensuite site on the creek, lovely and clean and the camp kitchen was magnificent. However a large group arrived on Friday afternoon and took over, drinking and eating and leaving rubbish in the playground opposite. The adults rode bikes and scooters and walked through our site and took over the playground drinking and eating pizza and leaving rubbish everywhere. Contacted the reception and they said we could do nothing until 10. Never in 40 years of caravanning have we ever had such a bad experience. Won’t be back!

The staff were absolutely fantastic to deal with right from the get go. We booked accommodation here six months ago for a music festival which then got rescheduled. I had to change the booking dates for our stay and it was no trouble at all for the staff. They were always kind and courteous and helpful. The park itself is so well maintained and beautiful to look around in. The cabin was very clean. It was 34 degrees during our stay and the air conditioner and ceiling fan kept us cool and comfortable. It was an added bonus that the tv had YouTube and netflix.
