Like: Loved staying in a castle room complete with tapestry on the wall. Enjoyed the free complimentary continental breakfast and free admission to the theme park. It was super hot on the day we explored the castle so it was nice to be able to go back to an air-conditioned room to cool down and have some lunch before heading back out. And the parts we didnt finish exploring, we went back again the next day to finish. The staff were all super nice and the actors/characters at the theme park were outstanding! Dislike: Not enough hooks and shelves in the bathroom. Also the glass door in the shower leaked so there was water on the floor outside every time anyone used the shower. The shower floor was also super slippery. Location wise, there's nowhere to eat after dark so no choice but to head to ballarat city centre or buy takeaway before you come back to the castle. But overall, we enjoyed our stay and recommend this place. Great value for money.

Disappointed- Family of 6

Stayed in family budget to sleep up to 14 people. Had a huge water leak in the room with moist carpet which made the room smell unpleasant. Old and run down. In desperate need of a facelift. Continental breakfast poor very limited options.

The best experience!

This is an amazing place! The rooms are even like a castle. Our teenage boys loved it. Lots to do and discover and learn. Included breakfast which was great. Staying in the castle made us feel like we were living in the age. Music playing and gifts shops of the era plus the josting and sword fighting was wonderful. If you go to Melbourne make sure to take the quick trip to Leigh creek to go to Kryal Castle and better still stay the night in the castle.

We loved the cabins. The bed was amazing and so was the shower. Its in a gorgeous location with countryside views. We were surprised that we were allowed free rntry into Kryal Castle after hours. It felt special to be able to explore on our own. A suggestion would be to provide chairs on the decks outside the cabins. We had our own but other people had to dit on the steps or stand.

Kryal Castle was an excellent place to take the grandchildren. The room we were allocated though was not suitable for 2 adults and 2 children. There was no table or chairs within the room which didn't allow for us to sit around in the room when required, even to eat at night. Providing a complimentary Continental breakfast was an added bonus as it was not advised when booking.

Loved the program with gem packed activities in the castle. The stay was unique and dream like to be in a castle and we all loved it. Check-in wasn’t the best as the room was not ready at 2pm and I had to run up and down to the receptionist twice to get the key only after 2:30pm. The room can be better with some maintenance with the ceiling above shower peeling off and coffee mugs with stains. It’s very windy at night which makes a loud noise from the window that keeps me up almost the whole night. Otherwise it’s been a great experience.

We recently stayed at Kryal Castle, and it was an absolutely delightful experience! Staying inside the castle was so much fun, and the accommodation was cute, cozy, and beautifully presented. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the staff were truly wonderful—warm, friendly, and always ready to help.Exploring the castle grounds and immersing ourselves in the medieval world was even more entertaining than we expected. The shows were interactive and engaging, and the performances were top-notch. The gardens provided a peaceful retreat, and the animals were a pleasant addition to the overall experience.We highly recommend a weekend stay at Kryal Castle for anyone looking for a unique and entertaining getaway. Thanks for having us—we’ll definitely be back!
