We booked just for a quick night and mainly as the price was cheap. We were so pleasently suprised at the lodge. Our room wasn't ready as we were a little early so they upgraded us free of charge so we could go out and enjoy the EXCELLENT location. Room was spacious, modern, clean and perfect. I wasn't aware that... more

My wife and I stayed at The Hermitage for 3 nights in early May, 2009. It is a very comfortable inn, well-located for exploring the wine country. Our room ("Tyrrells") was in the main building, at the end opposite Il Cacciatore Restaurant. It was quiet, but rooms nearer the restaurant might have some evening noise. We opted for just a... more

We flew in from California in the am and drove 2 hrs to the Hermitage Lodge. We had done lots of research and were looking for something between a B&B and a hotel. We wanted the small atmosphere, but complete privacy. We wanted to check in and have it all at our fingertips. The Hermitage was perfect. The rooms are... more

We chose Hermitage Lodge on the basis of the reviews on Trip Advisor...and we weren't disappointed! Location was great (close to lots of wineries and the smelly cheese shop) and our room was fab - spacious and comfortable. I have to say the bed was one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in!!! The onsite restaurant was... more

I stayed two nights here in a lodge room. I was there for business reasons and therefore traveling on my own. The Hermitage Inn worked well as the restaurant attached was convenient and the food and ambience great. The best part of the stay was the fantastic comfortable bed. Breakfast provisions are provided in the room for a basic continental... more

I stayed at Hermitage Lodge for 3 nights over the Easter long weekend, on a romantic getaway with my boyfriend. We wanted to get out of Sydney for a bit and relax and I have to say the overall experience was fantastic, I cannot fault the place at all. We stayed in one of the Deluxe rooms with a spa... more

I couldn't give this place any more praise if I tried. Hermitage Lodge is situated smack bang in the middle of all the action in the Hunter Valley Wine Country. We stayed in a Vineyard Studio room - modern and stylish decor, (unlike the overwhelmingly "country B&B" vibe that most other hunter valley accommodation seemed to have) and true to... more

I was doing a driving trip all down the coast from Brisbane to Sydney. Looked for accommodation in Hunter Valley and found this amazing place. When I arrived the 2 owners were there along with their son. They managed to build instant rapport, were really approachable, helpful and interested in their guests. The husband gave me some great tips on... more

Decided to check this place out upon the recommendation of the hunter valley tourist board. We were lucky enough to get a great studio room, even though we hadn't booked. Room was large, clean, had a lovely balcony which looked out over their vineyard. Also included was a continental breakfast (which was ok, nothing special, just nice to have something... more
