Dear Craig.Thank you for choosing Hotel Lord Forrest Bunbury for your recent stay and providing an Expedia review. We feel greatly disappointed to hear that your romantic evening did not eventuate as planned but feel greatly relieved to advise that we have had no other feedback similar to your own.Such ailments are unfortunate and can be attributed to many origins so your immediate assumption may be far removed from the actual cause. Food hygiene and safety is a non-negotiable priority in hotel restaurants and we take such feedback extremely seriously.Hoping these stomach upsets were fleeting in their endurance and we will soon have opportunity to welcome you back again.

For the price I paid one would expect a free small bottle of water on arrival. TV has local just a few local channels- nothing else. (GWS, sbs, ABC). Bed mattress is below average and the room looked very tired. Room is spacious though and very quiet. Prices of the food were cheaper or on par with nearby restaurants. Location is great Day staff at the reception are very friendly and accommodating, although at times guest had to queue for a long time. I think they’re short staffed.
