I loved this weekend stay. My husband and I stayed for a two night wintry weekend break and I look forward to going back. I read some poor reviews beforehand but I can't endorse those views from my experience. The desitination has a dreamy elsewhere feel out of the past. There is shabby spendour and remarkable granduer in the building, cosily nestled into the valley. It reminded me of a European mountain retreat, and the historical photos  and decoration reinforce that sense of another time. The access to the caves is awesome and house guests even get access to additional tours at night. The staff were wonderful. Warm and welcoming, professional and authentic. The food was slammed in many reviews but I thought the three-course meal for $79 (which is included in the price of the room) was great value. I particularly loved the goat cheese souffle entree. So delicate and light and made by a talented baker on site. I can also recommend the beef cheek main and the cheese platter. Really good quality. I loved our weekend away and would recommend to others to shift expectations to something different, slower and unique. Would love to go back.

Unique desitination & the warmest hospitality

Fabulous heritage hotel, comfortable stay and good food. The kids loved exploring all the nooks and crannies. Then we entered the caves. Absolutely beautiful- nothing beats nature. 
Slight hitch when leaving. The main road was closed due to land slip and everyone was using the back road, all good until a truck with semi trailer tried too. 
Hotel staff were amazing, gave us our room keys back, so we could relax until the road cleared 6hrs later.

Unexpected hospitality

It is a privilege to experience the unique charm of Caves House.  It is an old property so if you don't appreciate this aspect best not to stay here.  For those who love the history and atmosphere of these classic old hotels you need to add it to your bucket list.
  
As others have said the room was furnished in the style of the period,  the bed was comfortable and the shower was hot.  The presentation of the hotel is a credit to the staff given the age of the building and all the setbacks the area has had with floods, landslides, fires and Covid.  It's wonderful it is about to undergo an extensive refurbishment to preserve it for future generations. 

Breakfast and dinner in the restaurant compared very favourably with many more modern and expensive hotels and the staff were all super friendly. A special mention to Ramesh who goes above and beyond to deliver amazing service and hospitality during the dinner service.

As a previous reviewer noted "All in all an amazing visit to one of the most special places on earth, hope to see great things in their future as they emerge from a tough time, hopefully with continued support from the Government".

A Unique and Special Place

We had a great day and biota Caves House! The accommodation is lovely and stately. Our room was nice and the staff were friendly and helpful. The set menu in the restaurant was fantastic. I had the steak and it was melt in the mouth delicious! We tried to tip the staff and they refused to take a gratuity. Impressive!

Loved the Caves House!

Thoroughly enjoyed our 1 night stay at Caves House. Lovely old buildings with wide staircases and photos of times gone by. Large, clean room and nice ensuite - no TV of course (as stated) but came prepared. Had the 2 course dinner in the Chisolm Dining room. Quality food and more than we could eat, sitting around the large fire.

Lovely old charm

Our trip was amazing. We ended our 3 week camper van trip with Luxury at the caves for 2 nights.Caves House was so special, so comfortable and friendly. The staff were great and the new friends we made added to the experience. Seeing the caves was the most magical of all. We will bring our grand daughters back to enjoy the unforgettable experience. Thank you Caves House and the fantastic guides. 

The Magic Jenolan caves

Recently stayed for one night, room very simple but had everything you need. Had 3rd floor room, very quiet. Could do with some new furnishings as some was very chipped, paint coming off and bedside lamps were fabric and had dirty marks all over them. Bathroom was good. Shower was amazing. Included dinner & breakfast was yummy. Can’t beat the location

Beautiful location

Best and friendliest customer service we had on our entire trip.  The staff couldn't do enough to ensure our stay was as good as possible - and that started with the check in.  Whilst the entire hotel is historical and refurbishment has commenced it will take time.  Just a very interesting hotel and built for a bygone era.  The meal at dinner was very nice - not over the top.  The continental breakfast was plentiful

Overnight stay - highly recommended

Just spent a couple of days at Jenolan Caves House.  The house is a fantastic sprawling federation style building nestled in a steep valley.  It is cold at this time of year and the rooms were a little cold and in places around the property the decor was looking a bit in need of some TLC, but lets face it this is a 100+ year old house that has survived the extremes of weather and still has the power to amaze. I hope it gets a well deserved revamp soon to make it sparkle once more!

The best bit (apart from the caves) are the staff, calling out Maria and Erina in particular,  who work so very hard and are cheerful to a fault. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Lovely staff and amazing history

After much too long of an absence I finally made it back to Jenolan last weekend with my partner on her first visit. 
Getting there is a little trickier than usual, and there are some hoops to jump through in terms of pre-booking and restrictions, but all pale in comparison to the privilege of being some of the lucky few able to visit after the poor run Jenolan has had the last few years. 

We took up the package to stay at Caves House with dinner and cave tours included. It’s clear everyone is still feeling their way through an ever changing landscape and procedures, but a little patience will be rewarded with amazing service and a rare opportunity to enjoy this amazing location almost to yourself, in a time where every domestic attraction is rammed to capacity. 

Sadly some of the reserve is off limits for safety and the Blue Lake is once again destroyed from flood debris but try to focus on what IS open (including two of the most spectacular Show Caves in the world) and the chance to enjoy the tranquility of this special place. 

All the staff were friendly, inviting, and trying to do everything they can to help you make the most of your stay. It was lovely to see some familiar faces among them and a special shout out to Lochie, Cory and Scott for assisting us with our arrangements. 

Finally I must give special mention to Ramesh in Caves House, a true ‘Gem of Jenolan’!
Ramesh went out if his way, above and beyond to deliver us amazing service and hospitality, and it was clear he was also imparting his wisdom onto the other staff in his charge. 

All in all an amazing visit to one of the most special places on earth, hope to see great things in their future as they emerge from a tough time, hopefully with continued support from the Government.
