Everything

Overpriced

Good Value,nice and quiet,close to cafe,shops,fresh air,great.

Excellent place to stay with family. Quite and clean heritage house.

Lovely old building, friendly staff, beautiful lounge room, conveniently located.

Nice historic place which is only few minutes walk to shops and restaurants. The room was clean.

A quaint old home, filled with potential — let down by a lack of maintenance and some odd furnishings. For the price, I do expect better quality but would definitely stay again if they could resolve this.

Leura House is a stunning old home in a fantastic location, just a short walk from town, offering plenty of charm and history. However, despite its potential, our stay did not live up to expectations based on the website’s description. One of the biggest disappointments was the lack of an onsite restaurant or breakfast service, both of which were outlined on the website but were unavailable during our stay. Additionally, the room’s furnishings and amenities left much to be desired—the mattress was old and overly firm, and the pillows were so flat we had to purchase replacements from Kmart. Temperature control was another issue. Guests have no control over the heating, which is centrally managed and only turned on when the property decides. With daytime temperatures dropping to 2 degrees, this was far from ideal, as the heating could not be manually adjusted. The bathroom also presented challenges. The shower door was broken, making it difficult to enter or exit, and the water temperature was inconsistent. Despite setting the hot water to its maximum and turning off cold water entirely, the shower was only lukewarm. Leura House has tremendous potential, but unfortunately, due to these issues, we would not return.

Leura House has a lovely ambience - warm and welcoming on the ground floor, especially the lounge area. Finn who was the only staff member on site on Saturday night was checking guests in and showing them to their rooms. As it is a heritage building there is no lift. my room was on the top floor up 3 narrow flights of stairs. Finn carried my suitcase upstairs on arrival and downstairs on checkout. Leura House is good value. My room was spacious with a balcony overlooking the garden and great views of Leura in the distance. The central heating wasnt turned on in my room (plumbing not working on enquiry) and the overnight temp was 6C. I was gettign cold so I got up at 3am and turned on the oil column heater & put on my dressing gown & went to sleep. It will be great when this historic guesthouse offers drinks at sunset and breakfast in the morning to guests!

Excellent staff. Huge room.

This is a stunning building with a rich history. Beautiful architecture, beautiful grounds, warm and friendly service. The room, while functional, was disappointing. I loved the antique furniture, the main bed was a stunning four poster, however the mattress was so hard I could not sleep and my back is really paying for it. The sofa was extremely uncomfortable and I spent most of my stay there sitting on the floor. Please update these rooms with their high ceilings, beautiful ceiling roses and rich history, in this truly beautiful building to ensure guests are comfortable and will be keen to return. This building deserves nothing less.

Lots of History, a bit old but very clear, comfortable and staff very helpfully Many thanks

I really looked forward to staying here but was really disappointed. The house, built in 1880, looks great from the outside however the inside is not quite the same. The pictures posted don't capture the reality. Don't come here for Rooms are accessible from steep narrow stairs - not a complaint just a note to travellers. I explained the room we were offered, up two flights of stairs and then along a sloping walkway, with no lift, would be difficult for us to carry luggage up. A call was made and we were offered one of two rooms. The first on the ground floor was an immediate no thanks. We were then moved to the first floor. Tx to the reception who carried my bag up. Even with the late room change, the room had some serious issues. Mould on curtains and windows, broken pulls and knobs, broken hairdryer and curtain falling off. I do not say this because I'm being mean, rather, it should be a priority for the owner to repair/clean these things before they cause a health risk. And before charging over $200 a night. Despite the sign on the fence saying 'restaurant' and 'lounge bar' there is none, no breakfast or other food on offer. It is fully understandable that the cost of upkeep of what is probably a heritage building is huge but charge less and lower the customers expectations please. Thanks to the wonderful receptionist who was very welcoming and helpful.

Very clean well kept and friendly. Close to Leura town and

Nice, interesting place to stay. Plenty of history and charactor.

Lovely location. And the building was beautiful. But rather tired. Needed some tlc. No breakfast. No bar. No refreshments.

We are happy to stay this 1st house in Leura.

The facilities in the room was a bit old. The hair dryer sparked and perhaps short circuited when I was blowing my hair.
