We had a fantastic stay. The hotel and gardens are stunning. The staff were really lovely and very professional & helpful. We both used the spa & gym and had a really relaxing couple of days! I would highly recommend the Maryborough whatever the reason for your stay!

Enjoyed very much.However there were no bathrobes in our room so we had to ring down for them.Also no shower cap.Batteries ran out in safe so they should be checked.The restaurant is too big for intimate dining.We were told that we could only have 7.15 or 8.30 but when we went in it was nearly empty.
However we still enjoyed it.
