Easy check in, room was perfect unfortunately underestimated how busy restaurant was down stairs and forgot to book a table, we will know for next time.
The management and staff were extremely helpful and went out of their way to ensure we were comfortable. Great venue for a weekend retreat.

We didn’t have a lot of interaction with staff, but the few were courteous. The room was moderately comfortable. We would have appreciated two chairs rather than assuming you can sit on the bed at all times. We were surprised that there was no window in the room which gave it a cave like feel.

This was a great hotel offering many things, unfortunately this property is in need of a lot of tender love and care, staff were attentive and friendly, Beds have see better days, cleaning of the room just ok.
Located in the heart of Daylesford the property is fabulous. A magnificent room that is beautifully decorated. The mattress was very comfortable. Plenty of rooms for guests to relax in. Secure parking.
What a beautiful hotel! We loved our stay at Hotel Frangos. Everything was so easy. The rooms are so spacious and decorated with style. We can’t wait to return!!
Great room - clean and comfortable bed bathroom was huge - close to shopping area and walkable distance to our dinning experience. Found the alcohol to be on the expensive would be my only complaint - service was great.

Hotel Frangos-Iconic
Staying in the heart of Daylesford was a pleasure, and Hotel Frangos offered a very central location. Having our own off-street parking was a big plus. The room itself was comfortable, with tea and coffee facilities, a small bar fridge, and a king bed that provided a good night’s sleep. The spa bath was another highlight and our second favourite feature of the stay.
That said, the room did show signs of age and wear. Some light switches were missing buttons, the room lighting was very, very poor, the credenza’s glass top was cracked, and the shower had visible mould. Overall, comfortable and convenient, but in definite need of some urgent updating.
Investing and taking care of this beautiful iconic venue is essential so that it can be preserved for many generations to come. Perhaps the owners Fairwork proceedings and fines did not help
I had a wonderful stay at Hotel Frangos! They were very accomodating with helping me check-in before my event in Daylesford. The room was beautiful with lovely ammenities and a huge luxurious bathroom. Would recommend to anyone wanting to stay right in the heart of Daylesford!
I booked the most basic room and was upgraded which was a lovely surprise. I was nervous after reading some bad reviews however I had a wonderful stay. The room could have been slightly cleaner but it was not terrible, or even bad for that matter. The room was huge, comfortable, warm, nicely decorated. The bath was heaven. And the staff were super lovely. Will definitely be back.

Daylesford is a lovely place to visit with plenty of dining and other options. However, Hotel Frangos was disappointing due solely to the standard of the room we occupied. It was very tired and badly in need of refurbishment. Even the TV in our room was substandard in that there were only two channels. A staff member said there was an outage in the town but this was not correct when we inquired elsewhere.

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was lovely however, it was in need of some basic maintenance cracks in the walls, peeling paint.
There was a lot of noise early in the morning, could hear a vacuum cleaner, lots of loud voices & generally people walking around.
It was very conveniently located and a lovely hotel, would be keen to visit again in the summer months. Very nice location.

I stayed at Hotel Frangos during the New Year period. The hotel is situated close to all shops, restaurants and amenities of Daylesford.
Upon arrival, the staff at the reception quickly got us checked into the Monroe room. This particular room features a circular bed with a mirror above the bed. I felt the bed was very comfortable and woke up well rested the following morning
The bathroom has an excellent spa bath, however, does have glass doors which limits privacy. This may be something to be mindful, it’s definitely more suited to couples.
The complimentary Wi-Fi at the hotel was fast and reliable, which was excellent for staying in touch with friends and family as we didn’t have phone reception in Daylesford.
Some of the rooms could use some extra care, as I saw some signs of peeling paint. I hope that the owner could put some funds into maintenance.
