Room TV facility did not operate fully ( couldn’t watch the AFL) and the climb up three flights of stairs was a bit much for seniors. Bar and dining facilities were good.

Book only if you have a forgiving wife!
We booked a $159 room expecting a regular experience based on the images provided on hotels.com and the property website. It turned out that the room did not have any windows other than nearly ceiling-height highlight windows. The room was very narrow with no chair/coffee table to eat/drink, hence, we could not order room service. Our morning coffee was had on the bed, staring at the pale walls! I was intrigued by the otherwise attractive heritage property, and upon walking up the stairs, I realised that what was a staircase landing area on the 2nd floor had been converted into a narrow room sold to us on the first floor. The general upkeep of the room was depressing, e.g. the bathroom door frame wood was rotting at the bottom. The staff appeared untrained and of casual demeanour. The cleaning lady pushed open our door at 8 am unasked and without knocking first! Later, as we stepped out of the room at the checkout time of 10 am, she called us out to be cautious of a large bundle of laundry she was kicking down the stairs. Pretty matronly and informal! And perhaps fitting for a minimum wage in a building without a lift! I avoid arguing and complaining on a holiday. At the checkout, I politely mentioned to the reception that they should have provided truthful information and images of the room being sold, and if so, I wouldn't have chosen the room. Unless your wife is as forgiving as mine, avoid!

Good morning Phillip, I tried to call you as soon as I began my shift as one of our staff members mentions that was an issue with our system at the time. But I could not get through to you, I did try a few more times an hour later but again I could get through to you with the number your provided. I then proceeded to email you a copy of your tax receipt for your stay here with us as requested. We have had a few technical issues over this long weekend and we do apologise for any inconveniences this may have caused during your stay with us.Kind Regards,

Duntryleauge is a beautiful old mansion that has been restored well. Inside the beautiful staircase is a masterpiece of craftmanship & the stained glass windows are a highlight. The guest rooms are clean & functional with original very high ceilings. A pleasant experience staying there over a weekend.

The GPS took us to a low set 70’s looking very cheap motel and we thought we must have wrong address - used a different map and arrived at the front of the mansion. The door was open but there was no one there yet I could hear voices on the kitchen. I called the listed number who directed me back to original place but as it was after 6pm there was no one to. Heck us in or find our room. We had not received any instructions. Eventually we found our room. The house is an amazing place however essentially empty and waiting for restoration. It is just extraordinary that this magnificent house hasn’t been restored to the grandeur it deserves - the rooms though grand had 70’s bathrooms and terrible decor. But it is an amazing house with so much history- far too expensive for the absence of any service. Such a strange situation….
