We had a historical adventure in this 1837 house with period furniture, lots of space, generous provisions in the bathroom and breakfast lounge, and good heating to keep it cozy in winter. I even enjoyed some old books that I remembered from my childhood. One of the two oldest buildings in Maitland it's well worth booking a stay. We were even allowed to charge our electric car which was appreciated.

The Old Victoria is a beautiful building. It is a grand old dame. Apparently it is one of the oldest homes in Maitland. It is definitely not in its hay day but it there is a sense of comfort and homeliness to the place. It could do with a bit of a clean up in spots but was a comfortable place to stay for one night. Be aware that the train line is across the road from The Old Victoria. Train noise does not worry me but if it is an issue for you you may want to look elsewhere. In saying that we were in a back room so the noise was somewhat muffled. The breakfast is basic. Our room ( Poets Room) had a nice charm and theme without over doing it. I would definitely stay here again if passing through the area.

The Old Vic was a delightful change from homogeneous and boring accommodations. It was a little like staying at your grandmother’s place. Full of interesting antiques, a comfy bed with a snug classic quilt, Our hostess Eileen was such fun, with lots of interesting conversation and quirky insights. A lovely relaxed atmosphere with everything we needed. If you like something a little different, enjoy the Old Vic.

Great property to stay at if you like a vintage appeal. Restaurant downstairs is a must do if you stay there. Rooms were lovely and definitely gave a Victorian vibe. I think the mattress for the bed should be changed as the springs appeared to be shot. Host (Eileen) was great, and provided a nice history of the property. While there is train noise evident if you open the windows, I took that as part of the building's charm.

Excellent and staff very accommodating. The only reason I can’t give all 5’s is because I didn’t get a chance to investigate the rest of the property and surrounding area.

A lovely old home with lots of character ie squeaky floor boards & staircase. Clean & tidy. Comfy bed. Shared bath. The noise from the train overnight was not tolerable. Smelly bins from the restaurant downstairs were very unappealing. The old saying - too good to be true. Sorry

It was a 5 night stay during Christmas. The property is old and gets scary at night. There was no staff, the owner was available for limited things. No towels in room, pick any from bathroom. No instructions on where to keep used utensils or towels. Bins were not taken out throughout my stay. Lots of cockroaches almost everywhere. Continental breakfast is - Self prepared Toast, Tea, coffee, juice etc. No aircon, the fan was pretty useless. I had to place it right on my face to get some air. The price looks high if I compare it with actual hotels with shared bath and better services. I am not booking this property again.

Despite a few problems I really enjoyed the stay.
Easy to find using GPS. Easy to deal with owner. Good rundown on where things were,history etc. Bad point was the cockroaches. Pulled pillow up and big cockie. In the kitchen area put jug and toaster on and masses of young cockies run out. Good breakfast supplies. Some may complain about trains my only thoughts are how silly we sell our energy so cheap to 3rd world countries then we are asked not to rum AC etc. parking was tight and only on the street. Club about 700m around the corner with 3 restaurants. No AC but windows open and fans in each room. Be good when the verandah is replaced and you could sit out in the fresh air. Even a bottle of wine and port I assume available for guests to use?

Heritage building with really unique interior.we liked it as it wasn't your" run of the mill" stay. All the rooms were very different full of interesting items and decorations. Having an excellent restaurant down stairs was an added bonus. Eileen the host was welcoming and helpful. Great value for money.
