Was a quaint Inn. 1844. Everything you need and plenty of sites within walking distance. Fabulous oysters to be bought at The Wharf. Also prawns. Would have been great to have a microwave but really there wasn’t room for one. Nice staff.

Great Pub, clean & comfy room

Clean and comfortable, but somewhat dated. Check-in was quick & easy. Car parking was a hassle as there are more rooms than car-parks and we didn't arrive until later in the afternoon. Being a Friday night, the Pub was very busy, but we still managed to find a table for 2 in the decked beer-garden area, service and meals were very good.

6/10 Good

Nice rooms avoid the food.

Rooms have clearly been refurbed, but it’s almost like they ran out of money half way through… original sinks stay, no usbs by the bed, etc. Comfy place the night though, although I would say avoid eating in the attached pub… this was my lamb roast dinner… nope not a child’s portion but the one they served me. Ironically saw a locals roast go out to him and the plate was full. Clearly not valuing guests… Couldn't be bothered to argue in a busy pub, so walked to the nearby BP service station and got something to fill me up!

This place was a very nice surprise and much better than my expectations. Importantly, the bed was very comfortable with good pillow selection and the food at the pub attached was also excellent. The room was simple but had been refurbised so it was very well set up and included everything I needed for my stay. I've tagged this place as my preferred accom next time I'm in Port Fairy.

8/10 Very good

For being Victoria's oldest licensed hotel at almost 200 years old, it's held up extremely well. Pros: Reasonably priced per night, staff were very friendly, walkable to town centre with many unique shops close by. Food in the restaurant was the usual pub fare, however, be careful when ordering the chicken parma. They were MASSIVE. They could easily be shared by two. Even nearby tables were laughing at how big they were. Cons: Bathrooms are odd. Tiny. The shower stall was sunken about 4 inches (10 cm) below ground/grade. We have no idea why, but an accident waiting to happen getting in and out of. Easy to trip and fall if not looking. The shower head was also very low. One of average height would need to bend down to get under it. Otherwise, a lovely stay at this hotel.
