10/10 Excellent

"."

Bairnsdale International

10/10 Excellent

"We were in Bairnsdale for family funeral and the accommodation during this stay was great. Rooms very clean, comfortable and quiet. Off street parking was a bonus. Birds chirping in the trees, outside in the morning, was lovely & peaceful. The staff were exceptionally friendly. We had a scrumptious breakfast on our last morning in the restaurant which was perfectly presented and very generous. There was a very good vibe amongst the staff which was proof of a well run establishment."

We had a separate smaller bedroom and a main bedroom within our cabin and plenty of tea and coffee. However the neighbours were noisy and did not a get a good night sleep."
