Property was a beautiful boutique hotel with lovely gardens and great staff. With it being a boutique hotel however, some of the amenities like the bathroom were showing their age and not up to date with certain facilities. Overall a lovely place to stay

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
The staff were really welcoming and able to accommodate requests. The room had some issues with lighting (main lights flickered incessantly so we used the table lights only), the bathroom didn't have any storage or shelf for shower products or hooks near the shower for towels a day wash cloths,and the toilet didn't have a lid. The bed was one of the best we experienced along with the pillows. Breakfast was a waste of money, $39pp for hard cold poached eggs, tough bacon and a decent coffee. Save the money and go elsewhere (like the visitor centre).

Old and tired, in drastic need of some TLC and maintenance. It may be old but chipped paint, missing tile grout, loose taps, general grubbiness is no excuse. This property is grossly overpriced.

We retraced our steps from 26 years ago to return to The Convent. it was as special today as not was then. The staff were friendly and would go out of their way to assist us. The atmosphere is relaxed and enjoyable and comfortable. The windows in our room (815) rattled all night in the wind and the air code was tricky to get working. Water pressure was fantastic and hot water was In abundance so the showers were great (though the bath tub (shower over bath) is a little narrow when standing in). Circa restaurant was as enlightening today as it had been all those years ago (then 'Roberts').

The history is something that we can all be proud of and the decor is so awesome..... what I didn't like was the room is too dusty as my husband kept sneezing and I could see the dust and hair on the bed frame the shower is too inconvenient and too difficult to get the right water temperature upon checking in, the receptionist kept telling me things that i wasn't aware of - maybe got mized up with another group who were checking in on the same day most of all - it was my husband and I's 35th wedding anniversary and there was no acknowledgment whatsoever! If I've made a booking at The Shangri-la, the celebration would have been acknowledged with a nice greeting and a tasteful cake!!!!!

We just spent a night here and the Convent is beautiful. Lovely surroundings, nice pool and a lovely comfy room opening out onto a lovely shared balcony with comfy seats. Breakfast was good and our waitress was super nice and attentive. Getting a local taxi in the evening was tricky so just be aware that the well known online ride share company does have taxis in the Hunter Valley!
