Some of our most recent Reviews:

Google - 2 months ago - Lily Lewington 5 / 5 ★★★★★ Beautiful retreat. We enjoyed the all-inclusive option for this stunning Hunter Valley property. The staff at Spicer's Tower Lodge went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and unforgettable. We were very impressed with Sara (Guest Services Manager) and her team. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Google - 2 months ago - Eric Tay 5 / 5 ★★★★★ It was a complimentary two nights stay in November 2022 at the Tower Suite. The room was spacious and comfortable, the food and wine were exceptional and the service was warm and welcoming. The property has a wonderful Spanish villa feel to it and makes you feel like your are holidaying outside Australia until you are greeted by Wallabies, Kangaroos and Kookaburras. It is a place most suited for a romantic escape.

Google - 2 months ago - Susan Merrell 5 / 5 ★★★★★ Beyond sublime. With many hospitality outlets looking for ways to cut customer service, Tower has done the complete opposite. Everyone needs (at least) a couple of days at Tower, so spend the money - you deserve it.

Google - 8 months ago - Aimee Tink 5 / 5 ★★★★★ I stayed at Spicers Tower Lodge for two nights in July 2022. What an amazing hotel. I was greeted with such kindness and this continued throughout my stay. I booked a beautiful room that overlooked the vine yards. The room was fantastic. Clean, modern, and had a fantastic view. The rooms were big and beautiful. I can’t complain about this hotel. The sauna and pool was great, the restaurant was fantastic, and all of the facilities were clean and modern. The restaurant located inside the hotel, was delicious. I dined here for breakfast lunch and dinner.

Google - 3 months ago - Alan Brown 5 / 5 ★★★★★ There are two well-worn clichés: (a) “It doesn’t get much better than this” & (b) “I’ve died & gone to heaven” Both apply at Spicer’s Tower Lodge (STL) in the Hunter Valley From the minute you arrive & are handed your first glass of Tattinger until you walk out on check out, nothing seems to be an issue & not once did any of the staff say: ”we can’t/don’t do that” A great example was the duck – on the lunch menu but not on the dinner menu. I asked if chef could do me duck for dinner – no issue other than it was chefs night off. Again, not an issue – the staff are so very well trained the apprentice chef stepped up & prepared the most perfect dish. That’s when I set the challenge: could chef do it the next night? Of course he could but could I tell the difference? - No I love my duck & until our recent visit to STL my No1 duck was from Robert De Niro’s Locanda Verde restaurant in NYC whilst No2 was from Tableau in Vancouver. Not any more: No 1 spot now goes to the Hunter Valley & STL! From the room staff, the restaurant staff & the front of house staff, everything is seamless & easy to achieve. Ask & it seems, “you will get”. We have now stayed in all three Spicers resorts in the Hunter Valley plus Sangoma & Balfour in Brisbane. They are all excellent but STL is without doubt one of the best all-inclusive properties in Australia & we have stayed in many of them. Jude Turner has created something wonderful with Spicers but of the ones we have enjoyed, I think STL tops them all, easily. We booked our return stay days after arriving home & that, I think, says it all
