Robertson Inn reviews
5 Star Review by Jillian Sellars
The hotel felt like a manor house in Europe. The owners have maintained the old world charm. Dinner was delicious and very reasonably priced. There are four open fires, creating a really cozy atmosphere. The beds are comfortable. We had a shared bathroom, which was fine. The showers are clean and have good water pressure. The buffet breakfast was great. We had a really relaxing and lovely stay.

We had our wedding at the Robertson Hotel last weekend. It was amazing. Firstly, I'd like to specifically call out Belinda, James, and the bar staff who were so helpful, and quick to assist in any way they could. The food was excellent, and the service amazing. When it started raining just before the ceremony (which was meant to be outside), they immediately with the Florist/Stylist moved everything inside, and it was as though it was meant to be in ballroom all along! They made the day run so smoothly and wonderfully. I can't thank them enough for such a beautiful evening.

We hosted a book launch event in the lounge at the Robertson Hotel. The staff were so welcoming and helpful on the night and the catering was superb. The hotel was able to make modifications for us to cater to our requests and their flexibility was much appreciated. Not only was the food spectacular, the bar even put on some special themed cocktails for the night. Our thanks to the Team, Belinda, the kitchen staff, and front staff.

Booked Xmas in July dinner last Saturday with two other couples from Sydney and decided to stay the night. The advertised meal sounded great and we were really looking forward to a mid-year celebration. While the hotel staff including reception, waiters, cleaning and bar were cheerful, friendly, polite and respectful, the meal was a complete disaster. To paint a picture, the cheese entree looked like a melted blob, the only item from the main meal that even resembled the menu was the salad and the dessert was courtesy of 'Sarah Lee' and burnt. Honestly and jokes aside, the main meal resembled something akin to prison slop or something you would mash up and give to your dog. We were told that the hotel/kitchen was short staffed but that was no excuse for the dismal quality and presentation. We did complain and were offered a refund and free bottle of wine but all we accepted in fairness was to pay no more than the original deposit. I would not recommend anyone have a function there unless they employ a new Chef and/or kitchen staff. The rooms were OK but hot, no power points in the bathroom and could not close curtains to window facing east so the sun woke us early. Breakfast on the other hand was quite nice and plentiful although the coffee machine needed cleaning and the coffee only just warm.

I was fortunate to have a Christmas family lunch at the grand and iconic Robertson Hotel recently and it truly took my breath away. The lush pristine grass and old English gardens, magnificent views, mouthwatering menu that went on and on (compliments to the Chef), the high standard of service and in guest interaction is now rare to find - this is service at its best. The cost is so reasonable and if you are a local, you must try this Long Sunday Lunch - as you will not be disappointed. The extra effort to decorate the table with Christmas ornaments - was the touch on the icing from the staff. It is just 40 minutes from Sydney and accommodation can be secured and the Hotel is located just around the corner for locals. We even played croquet, had a tour of the hotel showing off its high ceilings, 5 huge fireplace and some show pieces of magnificent touches of real silver pieces which will take you back in time that oozes sophistication. Plus, don't forget the residential birds and a beautiful grotto build when the Hotel was a Monastery. Can't recommend it enough and will be back again.
1 Star Review by Ric Facchinello
Not great value for money. Arrived at hotel with luggage and having to haul it all up 3 flights of stairs with no staff assistance. Room was out dated and stuffy. No air conditioning not even a fan in the room luckily it wasn't a hot day. Noisy room with boards creeking all night from peoples movements. No kettle to boil water,no mini fridge ,no hair dryer,the hand basin was out of order and the beds were uncomfortable. Car park is a joke it doesn't really have one people parked on side of track and garden.I parked down near front gate make do car park or more like a paddock. Next morning the gardener was mowing the lawn and had whipper snippered 3 feet along front of my new white car spraying it with wet grass and stone chips. Rang up to explain what had happened to my car and that the gardener should be more aware. They said they would get the manager to ring us back. ? Still waiting I guess the care factor is zero.

Most magical experience, I have already recommended it to friends and family. We will definitely be back for another vacation. The staff was really friendly and helpful and the hotel itself is just an absolute delight. Thank you for giving us wonderful family memories.

Old school charming hotel. Clean, well serviced rooms and shared bathroom facilities. Parking is a little ad-hoc.
5 Star Review by Ellie Esquilant
26.11.2022 - Our fairytale started... My husband and I booked the Robertson Hotel for our wedding day. We exclusively booked the hotel for the whole weekend (Friday to Sunday). All our guests just raved about the hotel, the staff and the food. The lead up to our wedding was so relaxed and we had no concerns whatsoever. Belinda (Hotel wedding planner) was amazing and was on the ball all weekend. Quentin had such an eye for detail (He was honestly measuring the distance between ceremony chairs with a ruler - wow! it was absolute perfection). The waitstaff in the reception area were attentive to all our guests and were aware of all dietary requirements. The food was to die for - 100 guests and the chef just nailed every meal. We can not fault the hotel at all including the lead up, during and after our wedding. The whole process was smooth and easy. Our photos just encapsulate the beauty this hotel has to offer! Thank you to all of the team again. We cant wait to come back and stay for a weekend to reminisce about the weekend that was!
