20.01.2022 ID CHECKS As most of our customers are aware We have been checking ID’s for couple of months now and we have not allowed anyone from lockdown postcodes to enter our hotel , we made this choice to protect our staff, customers and our community. But as of midnight last night there are now huge fines for business and patrons for not doing the right thing . ... We are still offering takeaway meals for those that are in the area checking their properties and essential workers with permits. We cannot wait to welcome all our melb metro customers back into the hotel . Hopefully it’s very soon. Stay safe everyone. *these aren’t our rules, so please try not to get upset or frustrated with us when we’re just following the guidelines.

20.01.2022 Just an update on the restrictions At first we thought we could have 20 people in the bar and 20 in the bistro, but it’s only 10 per room with a max of 4 rooms.

04.01.2022 We have found a gold necklace out the front of the main bar on Sunday 28/9. If you have lost this please come in and see one our beautiful honest staff members and let us know if it is yours.

04.01.2022 Sitting outside in the sunshine, with our outside telly on. Watching one of our locals on the chase .

02.01.2022 Just providing some clarification on the new Covid rules in regards to Pubs as there has been some confusion You are only allowed to enter our venue if you are from regional Victoria (we will be checking everyone’s ID upon arrival so make sure you have it with you) For outdoor gatherings there is a limit of 10 people from only two households (social bubble) (this is for only when you’re in a public place) ... And indoor gatherings you are only allowed 5 people from two households. (But this is when you’re within your house) This doesn’t apply when you’re seated within our hotel or on tables outside. As long as there is no more than 10people per table, and the tables are 1.5 metres apart, you don’t have to be from only two households. We are only allowed 10 people in our bar, 10 in our bistro, and 50 outside When you are staying within our accomodation, the social bubble DOES apply. When staying in our hotel rooms, in one room (or unit) you can only have 5 people from only 2 households. So in summary social bubble (the two households rule) does NOT apply when sitting inside or outside out hotel social bubble DOES apply when staying within one hotel room or unit (5 people, two households) This is all very confusing but if you need any more clarification just give us a call
