Situated in a beautiful location within walking distance of most town attractions, this place offers a lovely view of the harbor. The on-site restaurant is very convenient, serving delicious food, but be sure to make a reservation as it’s quite popular!

Although we were informed about the renovations, it was still quite unpleasant to hear loud music from the workers while trying to enjoy the tranquillity of the area. Additionally, we were surprised to find there was no lock on the room door.

Location. Amazing. And having water views. Great having the restaurant on site.great staff. Liked having a laundry but would appreciate if included in the room . Staff (esp restaurant) were all helpful. Appreciated the complimentary chautuccerie board because of problems with tv. No iron in the room. Liked the ability to sit outside ,undercover with a table/chairs on the verandah.

The tv and internet reception was very patchy. Laundry very far away from room. Bathroom and furnishings were a bit ‘tired’. Would’ve liked a bit more light into the room(the only light into the living area was from the glass which needed curtaining for privacy.

Beautiful location right on the water, spacious room with great view from the front balcony.

TV didn’t work and couldn’t figure out how to lock the door from the inside, arrived just after 5pm and left before 9am in the morning and there was no reception on-site. Probably a very easy fix so not worth calling the emergency number or bothering the very busy restaurant. Seems like having check in assistance at a front desk until at least 7pm or 8pm would be a lot more customer friendly. Also there was an opportunity to not get room cleaned which I would have taken up but you needed to tell reception.. who were again not available…

Gorgeous location, great rooms, extremely friendly and professional staff. Restaurant was the best food we ate during our entire stay in Strahan.

When I arrived my room hadn't been cleaned from the previous occupant (apparently the cleaner had gone home sick) but the situation was quickly and professionally managed with a room upgrade and help relocating my bags. Very happy with the outcome.

The rooms are spacious and clean, and have a nice rustic vibe. Plenty of milk, chilled water and small complimentary chocolates which was a nice touch. The bed was very comfortable and the spa bath was a great addition. Nice views over the river.

Understanding this is not the primary reason for a visit to Strahan, but the tv reception in my room was basically non-existent. I also could not connect to the guest wifi network and had limited cellular reception. This leaves very little to do beyond 6pm when most of Strahan closes.

We had a wonderful stay in "the shack" , comfortable warm rooms that had everything you needed . Loved the coffee machine ☕. Best of all we only had to walk down stairs to the restaurant. Jack and Felipe were stellar throughout our stay and Jack is a fabulous chef and served us the best food we had our entire holiday . Beautiful during the day and amazingly beautiful at night .

The views and the friendly staff. It’s in a good location, good path leads into town or out to the old railway. It’s spacious (apart from the kitchenette).

The curtains are difficult to use and they are needed as the room looks straight out car park. There is an enormous en suite and very small kitchenette, would be more comfortable if the space was reorganised by halving the size of the bathroom and doubling the size of the kitchen.

Location was superb Adequate small kitchenette with coffee maker Easy walk to get the boat for Gordon River cruise and walk to Howarth Falls Loved the setting and view out across the water.

Considering it is labelled as a “boutique” hotel the decor and furniture in the room we stayed in didn’t really match that description. Maybe other rooms are furnished better. I appreciate that the setting may be rustic but the window screens and canopies were dusty and full of cobwebs A dripping tap which we mentioned to staff who replied that they knew about it but didn’t commit todoing anything about it

The property was located close to activities we were interested in and we could walk to the wharf. The restaurant at the property was great. The food was very good. Our wait staff was excellent, she was very friendly and helpful. Rooms were a very good size, plenty of room to move around. The heated floor was a nice surprise.

Spacious well laid out cabin room, "The Raft". The restaurant meal was excellent, the winter menu was a little sparse of choice. The view of the harbor both day and night was exceptional. Very quiet and peaceful however, this was down season.

It really didn't bother me however, the tiled floor in the huge spacious shower overflowed back into the bathroom, this must be a pain for the cleaners. Only 2 very small espresso cups, 2 normal ones would be a great idea. Having said that, I am sure we could have asked for them, which I would have done so if we had stayed more than one night.
