Breakfast was good. Location is perfect for the flower carnival. Only two minutes to Queen park, and 3 mins to the grand shopping centre. Very convenient.

Molly Australia

Breakfast was pleasant very cold out on the balcony mid winter

Keith Australia

Unique, beautiful - made us feel at home and very welcome

Jacqueline Australia

Breakfast was very nice - served on the verandah outside our room.

Wendy Australia

We had breakfast on the verandah outside our room. The porridge and Swiss muesli were up with the best we’ve ever had. The rooms are very comfortable and spotless. The house exudes old world charm. We will definitely be back.

John Australia

My wife and I absolutely loved our weekend stay at Vacy Hall. Its an historical building in a leafy street in Toowoomba. There are no amenities like pools, bar or restaurant. Instead you relax in one of only 12 rooms, by the open fire, out on your own veranda or tucked up in the huge four poster bed. The room is huge and oozes character. Your breakfast is delivered to your room and was lovely. If you want real R&R I couldn't recommend a nicer place. One of the nicest hotels we have ever stayed in and hope to be a return visitor one day. Toowoomba is also a lovely city to wander around for a weekend, explore the many well maintained parks and look at the historical buildings plus its only 75 minutes from Brisbane.

Patrick Australia

Beautiful place, lovely touches of history all around. Quiet, large rooms. Bed was extremely comfortable. Bathroom was a good size, great water pressure and plenty of hot water. The fireplace and wing chairs were the perfect thing for after dinner drinks.

Vicki Australia

The relaxed atmosphere, the room, the bed, the garden, the outlook, the central position.

Vera Australia

Menu had a good selection between continental and cooked. We had other pre-arranged plans for meals so didn't order. Price was reasonable compared to a cafe

Mary New Zealand

After a long drive it was the perfect place to relax and rest

  • QUEEN ROOM/FIREPLACE Is there an additional cost involved to use the fireplace in the bedroom,? Is a full breakfast included? What size bed is this?

    Use if the fireplace incurs a $25 daily fireplace surcharge which cover the additional cost of firewood, kindling and staff to reset the fire each day and extra cleaning required in the room due to fireplace ash. Continental breakfast is included. The room is described as a Queen Room so it has a Queen sized bed.

  • OK for 13 year old child travelling with us

    Well behaved children are always welcome at Vacy Hall. The only issue is the room needs to be big enough to accommodate the extra bedding required. There is an extra charge of $38. Best to call and check if the room will be suitable.

  • Bathrooms, do they have a shower or is it over a bath. Am concerned with access.

    All bathrooms have a shower which is easy to step into. One room has a bath and a shower but they are both separate, so there is no need to struggle with access.
