A unique place but not for everyone
A very unique hotel in a tiny town were you feel part of the past. I arrived at 5 m when all the stores were closed and all daily visitors gone so it was a cool bit bizarre experience being on my own with the other handful of folks staying in town. The hotel was cute and comfortable though internet didn’t work after 8 pm (cell reception is remarkably good), and had not come back when I left in the morning. There’s no TV either which for me was a plus but given the fact that there’s not much to do after 6 pm, it’s something to consider. Bring a book!
Be aware that the room is VERY basic with good AC and a very well stocked minibar outside the room in the common hallways. The shower is a bit sad and it was hard to keep a steady temperature since it would go from very cold to very hot without touching it. I paid for breakfast but they don’t serve it until 8 and I had a long day ahead so had to leave way before there was anything open for a bite. Do not add breakfast to your room if you are thinking of leaving before 8.
In summary, if you are looking for a unique experience like I was, this place is great. However, it’s not for everyone and a day visit when everything is open may be a better choice for you.
Excellent hotel highly recommend
Very clean and centrally located
Highly recommend dining at the hotel dinner was absolutely delicious !
Only criticism would be extremely poor wifi (I would say none even though the hotel says it has free wifi!)
Also very limited mobile phone reception in Walhalla
Gorgeous town worth the trip!
Staying at The Star in Walhalla was the loveliest experience. We had the best time relaxing in the old world charm of the hotel and enjoying the walks, tours, good food that Walhalla offers. Would recommend this hotel and plan to return with friends soon.
Stayed at Walhalla's Star Hotel last November.... really enjoyed it.
Decided to see Walhalla again on our way to Melbourne for the flower show.. Great place for photography and don't forget the Walhalla Goldfields Railway train trip to Thompson.....really enjoyed it.

New "Old Hotel" in Gold Rush town
Rebuilt in 1998 for the original gold rush hotel, the Star is a good idea but needs some more work. On arrival the staff member seemed abrupt, the room, though large, has no pictures or anything decorative, the flowerpots outside the hotel were not tended, and this "new" hotel is beginning to fray after 18 years.
Sjarmerende hotell i en svært spesiell by som absolutt var verdt et besøk. Det eneste vi var misfornøyde med var manglende Wi-Fi - noe som ikke skyldes hotellet, men som skyldes at tilbyder ikke har bygget ut linjer. Det var mulig å bruke Wi-Fi, men båndbredden var så liten at i praksis virket det ikke.
