About Totness Inn Hotel
The Totness Inn Hotel has stood on Melrose Street in Mount Pleasant, in the Barossa Ranges, since 1860. The restored building still has its original coach house and stable, and inside are a bar, cafe and restaurant with an old-world feel. Functions are held in the Great Hall, which was added to the hotel in 1866 and was once known as the Long Room. Over the years it has hosted political debates, dances, weddings and even court sittings. The hall seats up to 60 guests. Pressed metal ceilings, Baltic pine floors and a mantelpiece with a wood combustion heater set the tone, along with Axminster heritage carpet, 1930s church pews and artwork from the 1800s. The hotel kitchen caters for any style of event in the hall. Its everyday menu leans on pub favourites such as panko-crumbed schnitzels with a choice of sauces, oysters, arancini and baked brie, with gluten-free and vegetarian dishes marked. The front bar pours beers on tap including Guinness and Coopers, and the hotel also runs a bottle shop. Drinks for a function are arranged with the hotel when planning the event. The team handles private and corporate events, from milestone gatherings to small dinners, and plans each one to suit the group. Send through the date, numbers and style of event to start planning.
