Hotels in the Upper Yarra

Choosing a Hotel for Your Event

Where the Warburton Highway follows the upper Yarra River into Warburton, the Upper Yarra's hotel rooms are at the Alpine Hotel Warburton. Dating from 1885 and since restored, the pub keeps its accommodation on the first floor, with the bar, bistro and beer garden trading downstairs every day of the week.

It suits anyone in the valley for a celebration who wants a room with a meal and a drink below, rather than a self-catered house.

Who the hotel works for:

A guest coming alone – solo rooms are offered with an ensuite or with a shared bathroom
A couple after a view – the queen riverview ensuites overlook the Yarra
Two friends splitting the cost – twin shares come with king singles
Parents bringing the kids – family rooms are set up with bunks
A whole wedding guest list – the hotel's team can put aside blocks of rooms

The hotel doesn't show room rates on Party Hero. An enquiry with arrival and departure dates and the number of rooms brings back a quote.

Rainforest walks, the riverbank and the Warburton Trail are close at hand for a slow morning after the party
Each room has its own character, and some face the glass-roofed atrium instead of the river
The heritage-listed hotel is run by local owners Rachael and Anthony Northwood
Off-street parking means guests can leave the car for the night

Planning around the celebration

If the wedding is at the hotel, the reception can be held in the Atrium, the Courtyard or the Hotel Dining Room
A recovery lunch or birthday dinner can go in the Bistro, Private Dining Room or Beer Garden
Weekend stays come with a cooked breakfast buffet, and on weeknights a shared kitchenette is available
The hotel is also listed as suiting corporate retreats and family reunions
