Didn’t know what to expect given the very remote location and the fact we were only staying overnight as a transit stop between Strahan and Hobart… but we were very, very impressed. The accommodation was well appointed and super comfortable…the king sized bed was cloud like. Regarding the bar and restaurant… the beer was ice cold, the food delicious, and best of all was the attentive and authentic hospitality shown by the staff, particularly the young lady who helped us check in to our room and then went on to be an amazing restaurant host. Was so impressed that I’d be inclined to make this a destination in future visits… not just a convenient stop over. 5 stars. Highly recommended.

I had heard a lot of good things about this venue and they all rang true. We had lunch and our food was excellent, the service attentive and engaged with each customer. Nothing was too much trouble. Lunch with a view over the Great Lake and snug against the elements.

Room tip: Don’t confuse the hotel with the Lodge up the road. The hotel is next to the general store beside the turn off to Derwent Bridge.

We stayed overnight and ate at the hotel. Everything in the room was excellent, clean crisp white sheets and the bed was so comfortable and the room was spotless. The breakfast supplies were very generous. The staff at the hotel were so friendly and helpful. Our meal in the dining room was delicious. Good choices from the menu in the restaurant. We loved the experience of staying in the middle of the Tasmania, it seems remote but is very easy to access by a good safe road. Thoroughly recommend.

This is a very good hotel to stay at, it’s very clean, large rooms and very friendly and helpful staff. Great view over the lake. Miena is a fishing village, not close to anything.
Also the food was excellent in the bar. Large serves of very tasty food.

Called in for lunch and the obliging and helpful staff allowed us to have a pre-coffee in the annex nearest the lake for its great views and relaxing lounge chairs. This was despite that room being totally booked out and in the process of being set up for a large group coming in. Great customer service and appreciated by us. We then moved to the dining room for lunch where we had a pizza and pork belly entree. The pizza was adequate and the pork belly was enough for my wife to eat as a main. In all, a very satisfactory experience with great views that we rated just below excellent due to slow service. Our impression was that there might be some understaffing in the kitchen. We suggest that if you are in a hurry, make that very clear as otherwise you will experience a very leisurely and relaxed lunch.
