Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Not only did we stay in a lovely large bedroom with separate lounge room and study plus expansive bathroom, the deal also included dinner and breakfast.
Yes, with the current Covert-19 challenge, the Tarraleah operations are not in full swing, however this is an opportunity to pamper yourself in the main lodge. All staff were extremely helpful and nothing was a problem. lovely walks through the Lyer-bird forest and views down the Hydro system were all fringe benefits during our stay. Without doubt our meal, which was served in the new restaurant on the hill was first class!

From the minute you are greeted at the door, until the minute you leave the Lodge, it is one first class experience. Open fire in the Library, which doubles as a lounge with an honesty mini bar. Large suite with king size bed, large bathroom with marbled floor with floor heating and heated towel rails, bath, large shower and gorgeous luxury toiletries. Each suite has either a gas fire, spa bath or balcony. The ultimate experience was topped off with a fabulous 2 course set dinner with other Lodge guests, and a fully cooked breakfast the next morning. Wonderful, highly recommended and will be sure to return

If they need a photo to put in the dictionary next to the word "indulgence", Tarraleah Lodge would fit the bill nicely. It's an absolute experience of being spoiled and pampered :)

We arrived and were greeted by the "lodge host" who showed us around. The Lodge has a lovely lounge with comfy sofas, an open fire, a guest library, 100 malt whiskeys, various wines and other drinks. The room is hugely spacious and well-equipped; the bathroom has everything from a spa bath to a heated floor.

Dinner and breakfast are included and because there's only a handful of suites you get to meet and chat with the chef who can talk about the food. It's a true dining experience, not just a meal.

A grand 1930s home in the Tasmanian midlands. Gigantic well-appointed suites, capable and professional staff, and good food. The suites are inside the main house, and the guests (a maximum capacity of 18 people) have the use of the main, enormous lounge room with open fire. Staying here re-creates the mood of staying with friends in their large country house. Bushwalking, reading, and exploring the hydro-electric past and present in the surrounging country side made this an extremely pleasant stay.

We stayed for two nights and the atmosphere was so relaxing, to being greeted at arrival and being offered drinks by the fire, to amazing three course dinners with guests at the lodge and cottages it was a great experience. The dinners are held as a group event around a shared table, it was great to talk to new people who were staying both at the Lodge and the Cottages. It made for a unique experience that you don't often get. Breakfast was included and it was more than enough to keep us fueled for the day of exploring.

The room itself was well maintained, clean and super comfortable. We were given a map of the area so we knew were all the walks were. They were all good, though some are better maintained than others, which is the only area for improvement we could find.

We had the hot tub experience at sunset which was amazing. The facilities were really great and we really enjoyed the tub and our bottle of wine!

Would visit again.

Very expensive night away for my birthday. Greeted with a reprimanding for arriving early, given an average meal (chicken and cous cous)- no salad or veg. "Complimentary drinks" means water and soda. Asked for the cheese board after dinner- no, that has to be preordered. Got asked dietaries but they were completely ignored when half my plate at breakfast was pork. After contacting management about our experience, was told "well the other guests enjoyed it".

Extremely disappointing for the price tag. Won't be back.

Wonderful 30's building which has been revamped into a modern luxury hotel. The welcome was lovely and we had everything explained and showed to us and were told if we had any questions just to ask. King size bed in the room was to die from and the bathroom with underfloor heating was brilliant. The fires were kept burning in the lounge to relax in at any time. Food was delicious and couldn't fault it - for every meal. They had thought of everything and would thoroughly recommend a stay here - you wont' regret it.

Booked in for one night. Lodge room was very comfortable except for very Poor TV reception. Confirmation email stated that on arrival, to ring the doorbell and a host would greet us at the door. No doorbell, no host. Keys were left in an envelope in a box outside reception about a 5 min walk from the lodge. No face to face contact. Breaksfast was not in the dining room overlooking the Nive Valley as advertised on their website. Instead we had to walk 5 mins from the lodge to a cafe near reception. However breaksfast was nice. Cliff top restaurant no longer operational and has not been for many months despite still being advertised as a dining option which has to be booked prior to arrival. Meal at the pub was ok. Certainly not great value for money and would not stay here again.

This must be one of the most remote and comfortable places to stay in Tasmania! It’s in the middle of the forest built for the people who built the Hydro Power Scheme. We drove from Hobart for about 3hrs, and were so pleased to find a comfortable warm well appointed cottage with an excellent restaurant and bar on site, amidst immaculate gardens. You couldn’t ask for more. But there is more! We were so surprised when we discovered (~15 minutes down the road) Greg Duncan’s ‘The Wall’ which is a sculptural masterpiece, as well as Lake Saint Clair, which has some stunning walks. Highly recommended.

We booked to stay and due to our motorcycle breaking down on the way I called to cancel. I was told that we would still have to pay for the accomodation as we were canceling outside their cancellation policy. We had also had to pay for dinner in advance. Very disappointed in their lack of understanding for the situation we were in. For that reason I would never book to stay there again.
