One of the cheaper places to stay in town - pretty good value for money I guess. Ideal location. Right in the heart of town. Has all the ingredients to be terrific. Best thing was the comfy bed, clean linen.

Liked: Staff & service
Lovely, warm and atmospheric place. I felt comfortable in the charming environment but, on a practical level, my room had a rather pungent chemical cleaner smell that didn’t go away. As others have mentioned, the shower I used (shared bathroom) had little pressure and, I’m loath to say, did not have a clean floor. The rest of the communal bathroom was very clean. My other gripe was the balcony in the front … my room was off this and, despite the 9pm, curfew on the balcony, people were chatting there way after that time. Perhaps it could be closed off? But it’s a unique place, the staff were lovely, and the location fabulous.

Circa 1902 is the most delightful place to stay in Queenscliff! The room was clean and most attractive. The contact there with whom I dealt (Sally) was most welcoming and helpful - I couldn't have wished for better! I'll certainly return to Circa 1902 when I next stay again in Queenscliff.

The staff were gorgeous, the room was great, food at the restaurant was delicious! Sadly smoking is only outside the property completely... which isnt great first thing in the morning or last thing at night. Also the shared bathroom is fine, they're done the best they can with the space - but a little much sometimes for the price of the stay. That said - would definitely go back. The staff really made the stay beautiful.
