“What stands out is the contemporary design, extending from the rooms to the event spaces. The Stampton restaurant's modern farmhouse aesthetic is a nice touch. It's conveniently located, a short trip from the city, but I'd say its appeal is for those who want stylish accommodation outside the CBD bustle.”
