Lovely decor and location.
The room wasn’t thoroughly cleaned as there were dirty tissues under the bed.
I had a lovely separate guest house at the back of the property that did not have a direct view but the beach and penguin viewing platform is literally around the corner so a view from my room was irrelevant. The room was clean, cozy and very, very comfortable. The owners were very welcoming. Also the walk to the top of the Nut starts a couple of blocks from the property. There are limited dining options nearby and sometimes things are closed but what is there is good so it is important to plan ahead and it is possible to cook or warm things up so planning = being very happy! December was the beginning of peak penguin breeding season so there were a LOT of penguins not only at the viewing platforms but also after one thought that the penguins must be settled in their nests but, no, they were still checking things out in the streets and around bushes and in driveways. It tooks a few hours for them to get settled and the babies to get fed for everything to settle down! They are quite loud! It is quite amazing! A special place....
Very quiet place. The old buildings in the main street made it like a little english fishing village. Dined both nights at the restaurant connected to the hotel. Food was excellent. We also went and did an Aurthur River Cruise for five hours.
Lovely Guest House in a beautiful location.
Walking distance to the main strip where you find a Pub and a few restaurants.
Very quiet town, certainly worth a visit.
Hanlon Guest house is a beautiful character property set in a great location and has lovely views. We stayed upstairs, the room looks onto the beach. A very comfortable space. Checking in was easy. Would definitely recommend to others.
Beautifully presented house. Lovely warm decor. Easy walk to town. Only stayed one night but close to the beach and walks. Room clean, comfortable. Check on easy. Lovely short stay.
Hanlon Guest House was warm and inviting. The guest lounge was comforting and the amenities supplied was extra special.
Great shower and bathroom.
If you are looking for a quiet, comfortable stay, this is the one you want to stay at.
Lovely place to stay, walk down the street to watch fairy penguins arriving home from a day at sea. Short walk to pub and best scones at Touchwood Cafe, good for breakfast as well.
Great place, near The Nut, penguin platform and penguins walking up to nest for the night. Only negative was someone thumping around upstairs maybe early in the morning but might be one child or heavy footed guest. Will come again.
