What people are saying.

  • We were showing people around Robe and had no hesitation in booking dinner at the Caledonian. Even though it was a Tuesday night all the tables were full but not once did this alter the excellent service. We were greeted by genuinely happy, smiling faces of the staff dressed in lovely striped shirt uniforms. The food was absolutely divine. I chose chilli prawn linguine, plentiful prawns in a sauce, high in flavour but subtly did not distract from the delicate prawns. Magnificent. Room for desert. WOW Frangelico Mousse. Smooth amazing flavoured mousse, with a crunch topping and cool Icecream. Sublime! AND the presentation was amazing. Would you please pass my compliments to the chef because I was reliving the flavours all the next day. The whole experience was perfect from start to finish. I compliment you all. Thank you for showing how amazingly good Robe can be.

  • Fabulous experience. Definitely a gem. Oh what a gem. We loved this property. Historic with a great atmosphere. We chose the hotel room section rather than the cottages. These rooms do not have a bathroom but the shared facilities were spotless and close by. There is a shared lounge area with TV, microwave, fridge, kettle, toaster and cold water. The room is not huge but perfectly adequate and the bed was comfortable. Heating in the room is good and WiFi fast. There is no lift at the property and parking is on the street out the front. Neither was an issue. Downstairs there are two bar areas and dining rooms. Best of all there are two open fires. The whole place was buzzing on a Monday night! We had dinner and I can honestly say my curry was one of the best I have had. Cooked to perfection. My partner had the Coorong mullet and said it was cooked well and tasty. Prices were very reasonable. All staff were very welcoming. The property has a lovely outdoor area and backs onto the beach. All in all, a wonderful experience. Would definitely stay again.

  • Excellent stay at a lively and friendly hotel! Staff were excellent, it was a busy time of the year but we were taken care of and help was at hand whenever we needed it. Accommodation at the Villa was beyond our expectations, lovely sea view, big spacious room, excellent location in the centre of town. It`s a very popular and busy hotel but we were prepared for some noise as are given advance warning when booking, and it was quite nice to be so close to the action and be able to hear live bands form our room. Dinner at the restaurant was excellent. Will definitely recommend and visit again if we are in the area.

  • Great value and location in Robe. Excellent location. Sound of waves on nearby beach just wonderful. Great food and bar. Friendly, welcoming, attentive staff. Brilliant cafes nearby. Definitely a heritage building that is very well kept. Comfortable bed, generous pillows. An effective radiator, so room was cosy. Spotlessly clean room and shared bathroom. Quality linen and towels.

  • Sea views, character and five steps from great food and drinks Stunning location and views. Beautiful property really close to amenities and the staff member, Henry, who greeted us was superb. Even though he was absolutely rushed off his feet with a number of patrons he greeted us with warmth and a smile.

  • Everything I was hoping it to be, having wanted to stay for years. Very impressed. Meals fantastic! Fantastic, great friendly staff, very helpful and more comfortable “touches” than I expected. Fireplace, wood, kindling etc. Will definitely be staying again. Loved it!

  • Lovely quaint place Caledonian Inn is so cute and such a great place to stay for a night or 2. It was clean, comfortable and the location on the beach was amazing! Great to catch a sunrise if you like to! Staff were lovely and check in was really simple.

  • I highly recommend The Caledonian’s Splash House and Cottages. My party of 6 booked the Splash House and 3 of the self contained cottages. The location I think was the best in Robe as were the views. The cottages were so cute. The Splash House was perfect for us to all meet up and do some painting and eating, planning and recapping after a busy day seeing all the sights.

  • Most enjoyable We thought the staff were really friendly. Open fire at the bar . excellent food in the restaurant. We stayed at Splash and it was well appointed. Looking forward to returning with friends.

  • Location was the best and a short walk to the Hotel to have dinner. A few steps the other way to the beach – just beautiful – long walks. Shopping strip outside your front door.

  • The accommodation was quaint and cosy. The room had everything I needed for a brief stay, the bed was comfy and the bathrooms were clean. The food was great and I enjoyed the muffled sounds of happy customers in the bar after I went upstairs. A lovely country vibe!

  • Unique beautiful old world accommodation. Comfy, clean, friendly staff, good value for money. Loved the old hotel. Floors were not level and you could feel the bumps but it added to atmosphere. Glad I was not short as the door into room must have only been about 5.6 high. Bed comfy and everything was lovely. Bar very crowded as only very small and everyone wanted to be near the open fire. Friendly staff.
