Fodor's Review:
This cozy, friendly converted Victorian mansion is ideal for those who steer clear of big city hotels. Built by a pioneering doctor in the late 19th century (and now owned by an artist-writer couple), the property has loads of character. Writers' groups meet here regularly, there's high tea on winter weekends, and special events (like Australia Day and Melbourne Cup) are always celebrated. Rooms are decorated in a modern-country style. Just across the road is Veronica's, a three-story terraced house popular with families (from A$358 a night). After enjoying the made-to-order breakfast, you can relax on the porch or stroll across the well-manicured lawns of this Anglophile's dream estate. The prestigious eastern suburbs address is close to the great shops of Oxford Street, Centennial Park, and trendy Paddington, while the city and the eastern beaches are just 10-15 minutes away by public transportation.
