Back for more ”

My second stay, looks better condition than 2 years ago. New eat out area is excellent for ambiance & food quality. The rooms on the first floor need 'revision'. They are unadorned & unappealing, requiring new carpet and painting of greater accuracy. The bathrooms are good but need wood surfaces resurfaced. However I enjoy the Priory, it is well cared for & not run down, it's old with some areas original & others updated. I'll be back next time & hope that the bedrooms are enhanced & polished up.

Unique historical property ”

Loved walking around the rambling old corridors of this place. Beautiful garden and situated in a quite street close to Beechworth centre.

Charming building”

There is not much choice in budget accomodation in town but you should not need to go past the Priory. short walk from the center of Beechworth. The historic setting is a memorable experience for a good price.

Warm, friendly staff and historic surroundings”

The staff were very friendly and helpful, even after a very tiring and hot trip, I felt better after their welcome. They even offered to help my carry my luggage! The rooms are very clean and comfortable, surrounded by splendid historical pieces and the bathrooms are also clean and spacious. This hotel is a really authentic experience and everything within walking distance. It is shared bathrooms (on each floor, close to rooms) and no TV in the rooms, just beds. So just make sure you bring your own entertainment if you need it or stay out and browse the wonderful shops!

Bedrooms OK but bathroom needs work”

But there's a probem with having just one toilet and shower for all males in the building to share. I'm not sure if this is the same in the 'Girls' bathroom, but if it is your facilities need renovating/modifications. The water pressure in the shower wasn't what I'd expect in paid accommodation but perhaps staying in an aged house with the plumbing the worse for wear and tear. I'm also not sure why there's a surplus of beds maintained in two rooms I saw. the dormitory was chockas full of double single bed bunks but just for a few people, and my room had something like four single beds and two double or queen sized beds, comfortable all the same. No tv or radio either? Quieter without it of course, and I didn't miss tv really.

Beautiful historic accommodation”

Fabulous historic building centrally located. Shared bathroom facilities not an issue as I didn't encounter anyone in the Ladies bathroom during our stay. Our front room was enormous! We could walk to the main street and tourist attractions within 5 minutes.

Beautiful building, clean rooms - kids single beds are shockingly uncomfortable”

Value for money for two adults was good but the kids beds - a bunk - had thin foam on a wooden base. Incredibly hard and uncomfortable, not fair at $21 per child. Continental breakfast was also "thin" with instant coffee, rice bubble or cornflakes and white or barely brown bread and spreads. Some muesli & yoghurt & a coffee machine would go a long way to improving it - plus decent mattresses for the kids or at the very least least thicker foam. But the check in was easy, the welcome warm and the building is absolutely splendid, the rooms were clean and the shared bathrooms are gorgeous.

Room not like the photo. Basic self-serve Brekkie.”

Had a nice sleep in the Twin Room which had bunk beds and looked a bit like the dorm room photos. Not much else in the room. Shower down the hallway with great water flow showerhead (highlight for me). Nice breakfast of toast, cornflakes and rice bubbles but remember to clean up your mess afterwards. Which everyone seemed to do - so it worked quite well. Advise to get in early brekkie. Loved the big old building.

Good stay, great location”

We really enjoyed our one night stay, only criticism would be the creaking floor boards from the occupants of the room above the self contained unit.

Reliving the past.”

It was fun and I enjoyed the feeling of being in a boarding school again, after many years. The place is very interesting with stairs in unlikely places and it made it fun to explore. We enjoyed the communal areas and the room was lovely. Bathrooms also clean and fitted in well with the guest house atmosphere.

relaxing”

it was a great weekend in this great old building with so much character and beauty.

Reasonable stop over”

Stayed overnight, enroute to the ski fields with two teenagers, in one of the miners cottages. Excellent location, easy walk to the main Street and a very well prepared room. However the the room was very cold in spite of the split system heating being on the highest temperature. Clearly a problem with the heating system. I am unlikely to book again as a result.

Great experience ”

Great price. Small room. Very old

Great weekend”

Our room was upgraded, and we were very comfortable. Friendly staff and great location. Will definitely stay there again

Just wonderful ”

Just a beautiful place, loved the character and friendliness, oh so clean and comfortable. Definitely will come back here again.

I would not recommend the Old Priory hotel”

It was like living in a nunnery, the bathroom and toilet were down one corridor around the corner, down another corridor and then down some steps. Not at all convenient. Not even a glass of water in the room.

great history”

I enjoyed my stay it was nice and relaxing and the garden area was perfect.

The only thing eas no bathroom in the rooms. The bathrooms were not private enough.”

Absolutely beautiful place, the gardens and just the history of the place.

Huge room, clean, great location.”

last minute booking, didn't get disappointed, budget friendly, breakfast included (in Australia!)

Acceptable”

Arrived late, directions very confusing, google maps kept sending us to the back door. I tried calling the phone with no answer. Eventually spotted a key left out. Very disappointed with the room as it looked nothing like the images online when I booked. Had very little sleep due to other guests. For the price I would definitely not return
