The Hotel – A unique boutique property in the heart of Daylesford
Feel the splendour of regional Victoria’s beautiful natural beauty by disconnecting from everyday life at Hotel Frangos. Housed in an iconic 19th-century building, nestled in the heart of Daylesford and framed by mineral springs and spas, Victorian Gold Rush architecture and local artisan markets, Hotel Frangos feels like an intimate affair. Once a bank, bar and drapery, Hotel Frangos’ history can be traced back to 1856, when it was a mere plot of land. Nowadays, this Parisian-style hotel is a noted landmark, effortlessly catering to locals and tourists alike.
Inside, elegance meets artistic excellence, with murals from local artist David Bromley gracing the walls of Café Koukla — a local favourite, with fireplace and European-style, vine-covered veranda, serving a locally curated menu and wine list of Daylesford and Macedon drops, and the intimate and stylish The Bar. Staying in one of 15 masterfully appointed rooms, embrace the area’s relaxed lifestyle in chic boutique style.
