The resort was clean and tidy, although could use with some updating, it felt a little tired. The spa in the room was by far the highlight, the view looking out the window was peaceful. We were excited to go to the pool and spa area as it looked so good on the website, but we were disappointed when we got there that the spa had been drained and was not in use. We already knew that the day spa area itself was closed for renovations so this just added to the disappointment, and I'm not sure if this was all factored into the cost or not as the room rate was ok but could have been less considering lots of facilities were not in use. Also it seemed odd that the pool area closes at 5pm when the staff go home, bit of a rush to have a swim as check in is 3pm. The meal at the restaurant was delicious but very expensive, I got the steak which was an extra $10 and then sides another additional cost, I felt the steak was overpriced once you added sides. The entrée lettuce gems were divine, and we thought the rolls with entrée would have been a nice local sour dough or similar, but they were just the regular oval shaped rolls that we get at the local supermarket at home. The wait staff at the restaurant were fantastic and very welcoming and friendly. I would suggest getting an upper floor room as you can hear the spa above when you are in a ground floor room, it wasn't a huge deal but just a tip for those who are unsure whether to pay the extra cost, I think it would be worth it and I hope we return sometime in the future and we will do the same. The area is gorgeous, so many great little stops along the way from Ballarat, and Woodend is a cute little town. As the restaurant at the resort wasn't serving breakfast, we went into town to Paysanne cafe and give it 5 stars.

Our greeting at check in wasnt very pleasant The lady who initially greeted us is a nice lady and tried her best to sort out what at 1st looked to be a non existing booking. The rude manager decided to but in and so called "help"the lady who was doing fine without his help. He talked down to us and questioned us about why we booked through booking.com and how crap booking.com is. We had been charged for a breakfast thats only served on weekends so we asked for a refund and were told to do it through booking.com in which eventually we received notice we will get a refund. Does not make sense why this hotel is on booking.com stating and selling a breakfast that's not available through the week The manager also stated we should pay any loss in that mistake about breakfast and was very smart alec in his mannerism. The manager was whingy and rude and not welcoming at all so good luck keeping ya job mate. Will never go there again

Lovely setting, and the autumn leaves were just magnificent. Macedon is close to other towns such as Trentham and Daylesford so we spent a day exploring those towns. Mt Macedon gardens- they will take your breath away!
