Naughtons Hotel

Second visit Second time here in the restaurant for a winery lunch and it was just as good as the first visit. The food was absolutely delicious. For me, the ceviche was the standout. Beautifully flavoured with some fascinating texture and pop from the finger limes. The service was superb too - particularly from Hamish and Milly who were outstanding. Top class stuff. This is a brilliant gastro pub experience. We’d happily return here anytime First visit Came here for a winery lunch. It’s good. The dining area is lovely and well appointed. The food was good but maybe not top draw. The best course was an unusual one. It was advertised as mussels with bread and we expected a bowl of mussels with some bread on the side. Instead it was mussels on the bread with lovely green touches. It was a lovely dish. The wines from Narkoojee were exceptional and the pairings were excellent. Service was variable throughout. It was spectacularly good from our prime server Grace but typically less impressive from other servers except the senior male manager who was really good. It’s a nice gastro pub, and we’d happily return anytime.

I’ve read many reviews of this pub that described great ambience and excellent food and so put it on my ‘must visit list’ as it’s pretty close to where I live. The restaurant scores 4.5 on this site which was another reason to visit. The menu reads well with some great sounding dishes but that’s where it ends. The food was extremely disappointing. The chicken curry was tasteless and the ‘homemade’ nan bread inedible. The fish had a thick, heavy batter and the pea puree more like poorly mashed peas. Alcoholic drinks are expensive and the service was patchy. All in all an expensive, disappointing meal. I definitely won’t be returning, there’s plenty of other pubs nearby that deliver what they advertise.

Clean place; friendly staff; quiet despite the restaurant downstairs. However, the internet didn’t work well in my room. Nevertheless, it was a very good choice for my visit at the University of Melbourne.

Great location, comfy bed & nice reno. Would be handy to be given the WiFi on arrival and an extra blanket as I was only just warm enough (prefer no AC).

Oddly enough there was a misunderstanding and we arrived very late at night only to find that our room hadn't been made up. The poor manager of the hotel, actually came back to the hotel from across town at midnight and made up our room personally and then gave us a full refund for the issue.

Clean comfortable and surprisingly quiet. Very convenient location close to the city

I was worried about the level of noise as some other reviews highlighted this as a concern. And it was noisy - but only up to 11pm and then no music, no banter and only some road noise (not enough to keep me awake). There was a bit of light coming into the room but again not too much an issue (the draps were okay). The staff were very friendly and the pub itself has good food and it was close to my venue the next day. So all good

A classic pub plus hotel. Close to the University of Melbourne, has been updated to a small boutique hotel. The rooms were neat and tidy. Comfortable for one night. Furnished with recycled furniture it does take you back to University days and is lightly quirky.

This place always delivers the goods. An old favorite. Best for Sunday roast dinner or lunch. Menu changes seasonally. Live pie night tues as well. Frequented by well heeled locals as well as university students alike. Friendly staff. Gorgeous warm a**osphere.
