Lorne Holidays

The Howey is perfect for an inner city stay! The rooms are immaculate, staff are friendly and the parking nearby is really handy.

Great location, facilities and staff. Will stay again

I have stayed at quite a few luxury hotels and the Sofitel never fails to impress! Unfortunately due to an accident, we lost power, however the generator jumped into action quite quickly, With unprecedented work noise outside due to the accident, I was offered a relocation to another room, however at that time of night I asked for and was provided with earplugs. Eventually fell to sleep and slept well. As an apology, even though it was their fault, I have been offered a free room upgrade with my next stay and you can bet your bottom dollar, I will be back!!

This hotel was a great discovery and is now one of my favorite hotels I've stayed in. We had a one-bedroom cabin and it was wonderful. The bed was extremely comfortable, the bathroom was large with a double sink vanity & the shower had both a rain head & hand-held shower heads. We loved the little kitchenette and the absolute best part were the amazing views & gorgeous sunsets! We ate at the 'Cucina 3064' restaurant on site for breakfast & dinner--the coffee, food & service was top notch! The Cellar Door was delightful for wine tasting & their charcuterie boards were so yummy! On the weekends the grounds are full of couples & families enjoying the atmosphere, animals, music on Sundays & the amazing view! All the staff we talked with genuinely loved working at Marnong Estate and we can see why. I would stay here over & over again & will when in the Melbourne area.

All good and excellent value.
