I stayed for one night. Was warned that it would be noisy with music and bar guests. It was perfect for me.
Right in the heart of Beechworth. Morning walk was amazing. Everyone one friendly and accommodating.
Shared bathrooms which I didn’t mind at all and was clean.
a comfortable stay in an old hotel with shared bathroom facilities

This is a beautiful classic old hotel. Very helpful staff and good meals. The twin room was clean, but very basic, no tv and a shared bathroom with good showers.

Great location and you get what you pay for. It’s cheap & cheerful but with live music on all 3 nights, it was challenging.

This was a lovely stay. Great food & atmosphere. Had a cool band playing & fireplaces all going in each area in the pub. A great stay.
What a fantastic place to stay in Beechworth!! A lovely old hotel with very friendly and helpful staff, this place was incredible value. I only stayed one night but will definitely stay here again next time I visit Beechworth. The room was small but comfortable and it's very quiet despite being upstairs at a big pub. The bathrooms are outside the rooms and very clean. Highly recommend!

This property is very noise to the point I couldn't sleep. I don't think I will come back to stay in the hotel. Room and toilets are okay. Food was good. Staffs are very helpful and polite.

Great with friendly, welcoming and helpful staff. Clean room and comfy bed. Good food and local wine.
A beautiful old historic building which could do with a little TLC but very welcoming staff and great location being positioned right in the centre of town.

Great friendly staff at Tanswell's! After a mixup with Expedia booking a single room instead of a double, the staff at Tanswell's were very accommodating in finding another room for us at extremely short notice. Lovely atmosphere and excellent food and music. The staff really go above and beyond to give you a great experience, will definitely returning again.

I had a great stay, the staff were very friendly. I booked a single room with shared bathrooms for a two night stopover. A very basic room, but if all you need is a bed and shower in the morning, it was sufficient. Also restaurant was open Monday night were many others were closed

Excellent base to ride great bike trails. Hotel is quite old Australia style but rooms were clean. Bathroom facilities not in room but very convenient and very clean. Excellent value and exactly as we expected. Highly recommended for one night stay. Beechworth is the most beautiful town. Worth a visit

Some issues with water pressure and temperature in the showers. Otherwise, staff were wonderful and extremely helpful
It is an old pub that still has its character. The furnishings are to my taste. The bedroom for one was sufficient and having my own basin and mirror was helpful. Do not be put off by the communal bathroom, it is quite modern and clean. Friday night was loud outside until about 1am but that really is to be expected by young revellers. The pillows were thin and difficult to induce sleep. Overall a pleasant stay. Next time I'd take my own pillow.
Don’t bother with this one. No air conditioning no ceiling fan. Only a small pedestal fan. 35° temp during the day made the room like a sauna. Did not cool down overnight even though a cool change came through and outside temperatures dropped to 18°. This place continued to cook me all night. Massive holes in fly screen mesh allowed bugs to come in all night. Window opening mechanism was broken and window held open with an old piece of timber wedged under the sill. Definitely one of the worst places I have ever stayed. Staff are friendly. Location is good. Sure it’s cheap but suggest you pay a few more dollars so you can actually get some sleep.

The owner was such a lovely vibe and a good bloke and made us feel at home even it’s not a perfect place. Might wanna fill up the shower gel in the 3 bathrooms as there were none. Might wanna slightly improve the WiFi reception, too. I was really confused about the size of the bed as I booked a “twin” bed for 2 ppls and it turned out to fit only 1. We were so tired and had quite an awkward time trying to fit and half of my body was stuck in between the wall and the side of the bed, and no I pretty much didn’t sleep at all but still have to fake a smiling face to my bf. Turned out to be my bad- a twin bed IS a single bed. LOL. The place was in an absolutely beautiful classical style and was surrounded by lots of scenic Victorian houses which we did not see much in Canberra. Local residents here were so friendly and always greeted us with a smile. The steak curry pie opposite the hotel was amazing. Will definitely come back to Beechworth again in the future~
The room had a hole in the wall, there was a broken window, the carpet was dirty, there were a lot of cobwebs in the ceiling, and the noise during the night coming from the pub was too much to bear. There is no restroom inside the room, although, the 4 shared restrooms were ok. I would totally not recommend this place.
