Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers exceptional accommodation with spacious rooms complete with a large jacuzzi bathtub and a view of the estate. The complimentary wine on arrival and cocktail the next night, along with reasonably priced mini-bar items, enhance the overall experience. However, the room felt a bit claustrophobic and needed better lighting. The service is outstanding, with staff going above and beyond to make guests feel welcome and even assisting with booking experiences like a private romantic picnic. The location is picturesque, perfect for unwinding, and surrounded by fantastic wineries and biking paths. The dining experience is delightful, offering delicious dishes and thoughtful touches, although service could be inconsistent at times. The facilities are top-notch, providing all the amenities needed for a luxurious stay.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were cosy and spacious, complete with an open fire in the lounge room and a comfy king-size bed in the boudoir. However, the lighting could have been better as it felt a bit claustrophobic at times. The service was exceptional, always making sure our stay was comfortable and memorable. The location was a world away, allowing for leisurely walks around the property and easy access to vineyards. The dining experience was fabulous, with a good choice on the menu and excellent service. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay even more enjoyable.
The hotel is a luxurious retreat set in a small vineyard surrounded by fantastic wineries and biking paths right outside the front door. The rooms are incredible, spacious, and luxurious, offering a comfortable and lavish stay. The service provided is efficient, helpful, and filled with attention to detail, enhancing the overall hospitality experience. Dining in Botanica was a true delight with delicious dishes and generous portions. Despite the ongoing renovations and slightly high prices, the location and exceptional dining experience make for a memorable stay.
My stay at the hotel was wonderful! The rooms had everything we needed to complement our stay and offered beautiful views of the winery and nearby bushland. While my room on the front of the building was spacious and comfortable, I felt it lacked a bit of coziness for the price paid. The large spa and open fireplace were amazing amenities, making the room quite enjoyable.
I had a delightful stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious with a separate living and bedroom area, a large bathroom with heated floors, and a balcony perfect for watching the sunset and kangaroos grazing. However, the walls were a bit thin, and noise from reception could be bothersome in the morning. The service was exceptional, with the Hotel Manager even driving us to and from our dinner reservation in her own car. The location was serene and beautiful, offering a relaxing escape. The dining experience was outstanding, especially enjoying the outdoor spa, and the facilities were well-appointed.
Spicers Vineyards offers nice and clean rooms that are far from luxurious but still of high quality. The service is extremely friendly and helpful, with the staff leaving us breakfast in bed. The location itself, in the heart of Pokolbin overlooking grapevines, is ideal for exploring wineries. The dining experience includes a la carte options with a good range to choose from, enhancing the overall stay. While the retreat may have lost some of its luxurious touch, it still provides a pleasant experience.
Spicers Vineyards offers a luxurious retreat with friendly staff and beautiful surroundings. The rooms are spacious and nicely finished off with a more than adequate balcony, perfect for relaxing evenings. However, the pricing may not fully align with the overall experience anymore.
The rooms had everything we needed to complement our stay and had beautiful views of the winery and close by bushland, although they need a serious update. The rooms were spotless and had all of the amenities one would expect.
