"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Wine Country! I can’t say enough good things about Harrigan’s Pub in the Hunter Valley — it’s the perfect blend of charm, comfort, and convenience. From the moment we arrived, everything just felt easy and welcoming. The rooms were spotless, beautifully maintained, and had that cozy-yet-modern feel that makes you want to settle in and stay a while. You can really tell cleanliness is a top priority here. We also really appreciated the safe and spacious parking — such a simple thing, but it gave us great peace of mind, especially being in a popular tourist spot. The overall atmosphere? Absolutely beautiful. Whether you’re enjoying a meal at the pub, strolling through the grounds, or just relaxing on your balcony with a glass of local wine, everything feels laid-back and luxurious at the same time. It’s the kind of place where you can fully unwind. Highly recommend Harrigan’s for a weekend getaway or as your base for exploring the Hunter Valley. We’ll definitely be back!"

"We had a wonderful, spontaneous trip! What started as a quick lunch to celebrate our 10-year anniversary turned into a weekend getaway. Emlyn, who hosted us, was fantastic and made the experience truly special. She made us feel welcome right away and took the time to explain the resort and its amenities. Top-notch hospitality—she really made our stay memorable!"

"Amazing property never disappoints every time we’ve stayed there! I’ll always be a return customer! "

"Stayed 2 nights to attend a wedding. Check in was quick and the staff were very friendly and helpful. I would stay there again. It’s not a new motel, but the beds are very comfortable and the showers are hot with great water pressure. Everything you need is supplied. Great and economical choice "

"Loved how dog freindly the estate was my dog felt at home fairly quickly which she doesnt usually do Dining options were brilliant and the avocado on toast was delicious 😋 loved how friendly reception was We will be back ✨️"

"Fabulous stay. From the first welcome by Natalie in reception to the size and comfort of the room, everything was fantastic. A big surprise was that our room was being checked to ensure all clean and ready for our stay when we arrived, not seen that before. Bed is super comfy with plenty of room to move around. Microwave and the addition of a toaster in the room made it a very convenient stay. Would certainly come back again if in the area and it’s a much nicer place to stay than our previous stays in Maitland itself. I highly recommend this accommodation."

"King Room in an old style pub that has been turned into a Motel (no pub downstairs anymore). Entry from Vincent St is a little obscure but opens straight up onto a set of stairs with reception counter a climb up 2 flights. Old eclectic pub style accommodation with shared dining room, shared loungeRoom and shared kitchen. Large older king room with private brand new bathroom (which was very clean and bright). Bed was comfortable like sleeping in a marshmallow that wraps around you. Room has bar fridge and kettle with coffee/tea items. Room has own A/C. Free breakfast which you make yourself in shared kitchen. Great selection of breads, cereal, and milks. Also available eggs, fresh whole fruit along with every jam, butter and toast topping you could need. Basic breakfast, but adequate start to the day with a cup of coffee. Lovely old pub, but don’t let the decor turn you off, it’s “eclectic” and quirky! Only down fall is the street noise when some of the local “kids” yell and yahoo down the street on their way home after the other “establishments” close around midnight - thankfully it didn’t last long!"

"It was so relaxing and so peaceful great place to stay "
