Play Pokies at Marion Hotel & Cellars in Mitchell Park

Went out with workmates, haven't been to the Marion hotel in a number of years but have heard good things about changes since Covid. Ordered a burger which was worded like the best thing to ever grace my lips, came with a half empty plate of chips, the burger itself was about the size of a double cheeseburger from Maccas, but even still I had faith due to the deluxe ingredients that I was in for a treat. The meat Pattie's were something akin to the Woolworths bulk frozen ones that halve in size when cooked, they were dry, and hard around the edges, the cheese which was one of the pulling points of the burger had almost no flavor, and leaking from the bun like a watery gravy. The sauce tastes little different to nap sauce despite being advertised as a gourmet delicacy.

Overall yeah the place looks nice. Paid $12.80 for a glass of cider which despite asking for no ice, came full of ice, so probably only half a pint was served, and paid $29 for the burger that u probably would have been better off spending $15 at Maccas for something comparable.

This is our second year coming to stay in the Christmas room, and it never disappoints. All the inclusions you get, the late check out, breakfast, hot chocolates & chocolate bon bons, 2 x cocktails and the overall theme of the room is amazing.
We also wanted to note the cleanliness of the room is great, you can walk around with no shoes and you feel not a single thing on your feet.

Its a nice little tradition we've started with our family and we will be back again next year 🎄🎅🏼

I came with a group of friends for dinner last night and we were all very disappointed. Firstly, I had booked a table in the garden and when I called up I specifically asked for a high table as we were eating dinner, which the man on the phone had told me I would be getting. We rocked up about 10 minutes early and asked a girl at the bar about our booking, she walked us over to where our table would be and it was two small coffee tables with one couch and two little chairs. This was not what I had asked for, and to add to this someone was already sitting at it. She went and spoke to this man sitting at the table and came back and said "he will leave in about 15 if you're happy to wait". We all just sort of looked at each other and then asked if we could possibly move into the dining room as this was not the table I had booked. After a while of confused looks and asking other staff members, we finally were able to move there. Our ordering process was fine, however once we got our food it went downhill again. One of my friends had ordered a medium-rare steak, but it came out cooked well-done, so she had to send it back to get another one. One of my other friends ordered the kids burger, but a kids fish came out instead, which no one else ordered, so she had to send that back to get redone. Myself and my other friend got a caeser salad with no egg or anchovies and add fried chicken. Her meal came out as requested, however my meal came with an egg on top, which had opened and run through the whole salad. When the girl brought it out I said "Sorry I had asked for no egg" and instead of saying she would go back and fix it she just stared at me blankly and said "You can just take it off the top?" I had to then ask her to take it back and get me what I had ordered as I can't really have egg due to a small intolerance. That then caused chaos as I had multiple staff members come out and tell me there was egg in the dressing, which I understand completely, but I then asked if I could just have the sauce on the side as it is a small intolerance and I've had the dressing before, I simply just didn't want the egg on top, I was told "I don't think we can". Thankfully, after checking with the kitchen for the 4th time at this point, they were able to bring me out a salad with no egg on top and the dressing on the side. Finally, as we went to pay one of my other friends was charged for a full size salt and pepper squid meal when she was only given and only asked for a kids sized one. Luckily, the lady who served us when paying was helpful and was able to fix this issue for us. Overall the staff were very disappointing and made it seem like it was our fault our meals were wrong, as they seemed annoyed to take it back to the kitchen. A very disappointing experience, especially as we have all worked in hospitality before or still do and this would be unacceptable at our workplace.

Dinner 9/12 ordered mussels and fish and chips wife ordered salt pepper squid 🐙. Mussels were v good but the fish and squid were too dry and fish flavour less. Left disappointed. Service was excellent.

We had a wonderful stay at the Marion hotel last night. The room was reasonably priced, very spacious, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. The staff were warm, friendly, and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The location was perfect for us, with easy access to the Flinders Medical Centre. Overall, a great experience ??" we will definitely be back!
