Top Pontsticill Reservoir Hotel Reviews

BESSEMER HOTEL

8/10 Good

"The property is a bit dated, but very clean. We ate at the onsite restaurant which was welcome. Good was warm and plentiful. Hubby really loved the carvery. We had a mix up over breakfast - we didn’t realise you had to order it the previous evening - but the manager was wonderful and had prepared everything anyway. Restaurant was quite loud (I think there was a large family in) but the hotel itself was quiet overnight. The shower water was lovely and hot, and we appreciated the tea and coffee supplies in the room. Would stay there again."
