    We were very disappointed that breakfast was not provided ( due to staff shortage) even though it was included in the price. We should have asked for a discount.

    The location was great!! Laurel was a lovely manager with great people skills.

    We absolutely loved our stay at the charming Athelstane House. Even though the staff were on winter break we have never felt so warmly welcome and looked after. Our room was divine and we had a wonderful stay! 10 stars!

    The steps are narrow because it's a heritage listed building, if you have bad hips they might be a challenge. I have bad knees and could still manage, carefully.

    The room was very clean, the bed was very comfortable, I was upgraded to a larger room. The verandah is large.

    Oasis in Queenscliff

    The shower over the bath could be challenging for some people.

    We have been coming to Queenscliff for many years and this was our first time at Athelstane House, it will now be our No#1 pick for future stays. Athelstane House was a quiet oasis right in the middle of Queenscliff, delightfully furnished rooms that were spotlessly clean with a very very comfortable bed and lovely linen. Our room had access to the front balcony and it was a delight to look out onto the beautiful autumn trees. The breakfast included as part of our rate was exceptional, as was the coffee, and to top it off a 12pm checkout!! What more could you ask for?........maybe just another night or two!!

    The bed was a bit too soft for my liking (and my sore back) . A firmer mattress would have been good .

    Lovely place , excellent and comfortable room with Amenities provided and a clean bathroom . Great coffee and breakfast too ! Will definitely stop over here if I’m around Point Lonsdale .
