Top Daylesford Hotel Reviews

Hotel Frangos

8/10 Good

"Good value and location. Bed was really comfortable. Poor lighting in room and bathroom. Venue felt like it was mid renovation."

Daylesford Spa Accommodation

8/10 Good

"We had everything we needed, but the entrance to the apartment was uninviting. There was a mop and bucket drying at our door. The gardens were unattended and there was bird poos and weathered furniture in the entrance. Something that could easily be fixed."

The Royal Daylesford Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were very friendly and not arrogant at all. Very down to earth which we enjoyed and felt very welcome. Room was very big and not felt crowded. Shower was a double in a renovated modern bathroom. There were tables and chairs on the balcony up stairs that we could sit and watch the world go by. Meals were a good size and delicious. Car parking at rear too. Tables and chairs with an umbrella outdoor seating were popular. In the heart of the Daylesford township making it an easy access to all the shops, cafes, restaurants etc. Highly recommend."

Daylesford Central Motor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Efficient friendly services - central to everything - everything you need"

Daylesford Art Motel

10/10 Excellent

"This motel is 5 star! Beautifully modernised and renovated, tastefully decorated with class and style. This isn't your average "this will do" basic room; this place is quality, comfortable, intentional, welcoming and pretty. It's the kind of room that you feel kind of sad to leave. The receptionist Sam was helpful and considerate, and we loved every minute of our stay here. If ever I have reason to stay in Daylesford, the Art Motel will be my first preference! Can't rate it high enough!"
