Lilianfels Blue Mountains

Frommer's Review

Set just over a road from Echo Point, this Victorian country-house hotel -- a member of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World -- is a full-service yet cozy establishment. Rooms are spacious, expensive, and furnished with antiques. Most have king-size beds. Those with views are more expensive. The living areas are just as grand, with roaring log fires and more antiques. Views are impressive, especially from the lounge, which overlooks the Jamison Valley. On the grounds is an 1889 cottage. Meant for two, it has a sitting room, a bedroom with a four-poster bed, a Jacuzzi, an intimate fireplace, and its own gardens. Among the other offerings at Lilianfels are a billiards room, a library and reading room, and a lawn for French boules. The restaurant here, Darley's, serves great Contemporary food; and a two-course meal will cost around A$68 (US$61/£30) per person. It's open for lunch on Sunday, noon to 2:30pm, and for dinner Tuesday to Saturday, from 6:15 to 9:30pm.
