Peden's Hotel reviews

4 Star Review by Michael Watson

A nice large, modern, and clean venue, with easy parking out the back. Staff were friendly and helpful, and food was quick to arrive once ordered. Lots of good choices on the menu, but the food was a little underwhelming overall - it tasted fine, but the presentation was lacking somewhat, made it unappealing. Easy to get around, a little kids play area which still suited young kids, and plenty of beer options to choose from. Overall it was enjoyable.

2 Star Review by Justine Lau

It was an easy check-in/check-out process. But that's to be expected from a pub-run accommodation. The accommodation had shared bathroom facilities. My room: a bed and a small bedside cabinet with 2 drawers. The drawer on top lost its handle and in its place was just a piece of plastic shoved into the hole in place of it. I couldn't open the lone window of the room. Could be just my lack of strength. The line for the blind had broken off, or was just left hanging on a hook on a wall taunting you. So, you couldn't really do much with the blind. There was an A/C unit in the room, but I couldn't find a remote control for it. I was just in the area for a concert and rather than driving 2.5hrs after 11pm, I'd decided to stay locally for the night. So, I wasn't to bothered by the condition of the room. As long as the bed is sleep-able and bathroom worked. But returning to my room after the concert, it was a little hard to talk asleep as there was music coming from the pub way after 12am. But tiredness overcame me. But I was roused up in the middle of the night by someone unlocking my room door and opening it (the door was quite stuck and you had to really lean into it to get it opened). I remember getting upright and saying "Hello" to the intruder. The person promptly left and I fell back into sleep. (I was thankful I didn't come to any harm.) I only remembered and wondered about the strange event the next morning Make of it what you will.

4 Star Review by Cj Chapman

Decent pub food at affordable prices with prompt, friendly service. I liked being able to order online and see the dishes on the menu, such a time saver if you're dining with kids. Plenty of seating and warm atmosphere. Would recommend!

5 Star Review by Karen Inglis

Had one of the best pub meals here. Burrito bowl with prawns. Absolutely delicious and prawns cooked perfectly. Hadn't been here for some time but it was great to see that the menu had finally been changed. Highly recommend

1 Star Review by Linda Robinson

While the service was attentive and the staff pleasant the meal left a lot to be desired. One entree arrived and the other 15 minutes later. . While eating the second entree the mains arrived and placed on the end of the table. The battered fish was shiny with grease and the stuffed chicken was really only stuffed with ricotta cheese not what was described. Sadly we could not recommend this place at all. It's proximity to the performing arts centre makes it appealing but you will get a much better meal at the other pub across the road.

Service is quite slow but they was quite busy when I visited. Waited 40 mins for our food and it would have been nice if someone came and told us that there was a bit of a wait.
