A very comfortable luxury stay, highly recommend

We loved everything, the cosy treetops cottage with big comfy bed, fab bathroom and lounge with fireplace and balcony, the views directly onto the pretty harbour, the excellent food and dining options, the lovely grounds and vegetable gardens.

The service was excellent. Staff were friendly and very helpful. The homemade muffins every morning was an excellent touch. Coffee and warmed muffins on the deck was the best!.

Gorgeous and charmingg accomodation, an easy walk from the centre of Ganges

Hastings House is beautiful, and the people who run it are lovely. We stayed in the Willow Suite, which was fabulous. I was particularly captivated by all the hummingbirds outside the breakfast area

Rejuvenating and Peaceful. Exactly what I was looking for.

The Staff and Managment went our of their way to make us feel welcome and comfortable. The included breakfast was amazing and muffins to your room are a nice touch. I liked it so much I stayed another night!

Luxurious stay with gorgeous views and the best service.

The property is beautiful, the rooms spacious, and the team that run the property were the kindest most helpful people. They were extremely accommodating and helped us in a pinch (when we were running late to a wedding).

A gorgeous hotel - didn’t eat dinner there but had breakfasts. This and service were great on the first day but by day 3 had wained. We were made to feel like we were annoying - asking for cutlery, butter and jam and coffee refills - the basics of breakfast. It's quite pricey so we were a little sad this was how our stay ended. However the location, rooms and morning muffins are a delight and you can easily leave your city life behind as you swim in coves and adjust to the pace of island life. This is a magical hotel and we only mention the breakfast as Its easily rectifiable.

A nice break and the high price was not too serious granted this was out first holiday in 3 year.

The breakfast was fine. The accommodation was adequate but a bit disappointing considering the high prices.

Don't go in summer heat.

Weather very hot and building old and room in loft, but no portable AC unit provided, no ceiling fan installed despite perfectly located ceiling power point and switch and all windows but one stuck closed. Impossibly uncomfortable. Floor fans provided but way too noisy! Four night booked but left after one. After the 2021 heat dome there is no excuse for not carrying out a critical and inexpensive upgrade, especially at the room rate.

It was perfect accommodation for five women enjoying a birthday celebration. Will definitely return!

Breakfast was excellent, we had it in our room one morning and in the dining room the second morning.... We requested a fifth bed for the Churchill cottage and Hastings was very accommodating! We were a group of five women and not crazy about sharing beds....The warm muffins brought to the cabin each morning were an unexpected and excellent treat and the chilled sparkling wine on our arrival was delightful!

It was a super time, the hotel was good, but only good. As far as the price was concerned, not real

The location was great, the breakfast was poor. Eggs hard, bacon ok, toast cold and hard!!
