Hotel 3 Bintang di Bowral

We arrived late afternoon in Bowral and secured the last room available. Ben and the staff were great, and the room was modern, clean and comfortable. The bathroom was large and bright with a double shower, there was a Nespresso machine and pods, NetFlix and Stan, and the bed was perfect. Located in the centre of town we were able to walk to everything and could leave the car parked. We were astounded by the beauty of the town and thrilled that it has retained its original vibe. Dinner at the hotel was really good and well-priced, and if you’re looking for coffee try “Early Birds” on the Main Street at the other end of town - it’s brilliant!

This place is located 10 mins from main Hume Highway (M31). So convenient from Sydney. I guess its the same coming in from Melbourne & Sydney. A tar sealed road takes you onto the property which has lots of parking space. It is such a peaceful place located at the foot of forest. We were so surprised at the size of this property. It is quiet and allows you to absorb the peace and tranquility. We went back so refreshed. Dont forget to take a walk into the forest. You could hire an e-bike but its available for ages 21 and up. They do ensure all the safety precautions are taken. Cannot be hired on rainy days. But do take advantage of an umbrella provided on site. Walk in the forest is refreshing. We were so impressed with the spacious and luxurious rooms. The super king bed is very comfortable for a restful night. The room is modern and warm with its own fireplace on the top floors. We booked the Sunset Suite ( glad we did) as the views are amazing. Green all around and you get your own day bed. Excellent service too. Highly recommended.

The gent welcoming me was kind enough to carry my case up the stairs. I had renovated room 9 overlooking the beer garden, so there would be noise during nights when the bar was open and the patronage higher. The room had an excellent Queen bed with good linen plus an old bedside table, lamp, wardrobe and vasic chair. WiFi was good and unlike in some Italian and French hotels that I had just stayed in, it was easy to find a bathroom power point to charge my phone. The renovated bathroom had good non slip floor tiles and a practical shower. Water flow in the shower was OK but it lacked the luxury, away from home rainshower experience. The hotel bar opens longer on weekends. Some nights have a bistro. There is a well maintained pool and tennis court for guests. Not all rooms have ensuites though mine did. It is a 101 year old historic property opposite the railway station where trains to and from Canberra stop plus a limited number of Campbelltown to Goulburn services. I used a Sydney to Canberra train to arrive.

I am a planning fool, that way you guard against disappointment and sleeping in the car overnight. My husband however is non planner, with a how bad can it be, how crowded will it get mid week, perspective. Thanks to this take on the world we ended up at Dormie Lodge because it was getting dark and there was an old sign which pointed us there. This place is interesting, with a degree of charm and a need for a major overhaul. My guess is it’s late 20s/ v early 30s.It is rundown but functioning. and in places, quite nice. Go to Peppers if you want a sexy, luxury weekend, not here. This is as one reviewer writes, for golfing enthusiasts. We had a large room with 2 beds, one queen, one single, not good quality. The bathroom was a nasty little 1970s shoe in which was in need of bleach. Note it was stained not dirty. The hotel was v clean. There was the smallest, tiniest TV which I have seen since the 1970s. The room overlooked the car park which in the morning had all the noise of golf carts and a fine view of workmen spitting into the bushes. The room was glacial and this was in February, however the night manager brought us 2 little fan heaters as heating was off and that was fine. This all set us back $A175 which astounded me. So, that’s the bad stuff. The good stuff was the lounge. Nicely done with faux period leather chairs. But what I liked best was the 1970s extension where the the dining room and bar were housed. One side was packed out with golfers, the other virtually empty. We went there and drank $8 wine and watched the sun set over the gardens and golf links.What I also liked was the inside staff. Everyone of them was exceptionally nice and unfailingly helpful. We didn’t eat there. Food was about $40 a main course. It did look v nice. Be aware that upstairs has no lift and the stairs are quite steep. Renovations are ongoing but regrettably they are not restorations of beautiful period features. The instead involve lots of white paint and plastic bathroom suites.
