"Built in 1925 by Michael Feros, this grand hotel is heritage listed and is still owned by the Feros family. It is a classic example of Australian hotel architecture of the 1920s....

"Heritage features include a soaring parapet, a wrought iron verandah and 1925 tiles, while our internal features include a lead light canopy, stained timber ceilings, picture rails and authentic skirting boards." (visit link)

The two-storey building has covered verandahs for equal parts of facing both Hickory and Cudgery Streets. There are wrought iron corners by the wooden verandah posts. It is painted in muted heritage tan. It has a rendered facade on both street-sides, with the Dated Section facing the intersection. The "1925" sits within a decroative motif of scrolling flowers and bunches of grapes.

If you stay, why not check out the fine dining in 'The Fernery Family Bistro'. And, with 12 National Parks within the region you will have a great time exploring the region.
