A good spot to wait out rainy weather during our stay. Friendly staff ##### Harold Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Neil Dec 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Panorama is in a very quiet, idyllic spot in the Dandenong Ranges. Our welcome was very pleasant and easy. We were shown our room, which turned out to have a faulty shower, with an alternative given immediately. The manager was very engaging and took us on a tour of the property, which has the primary function as a conference centre. The large central dining/lounge is comfortable and relaxing. The rooms are small, but clean. The bathrooms are quite small, but adequate for a short stay. The owners have only had the property for a few months, but are making significant improvements. This is a fantastic place to get away and relax if you want a total break. There are no shops within about five kilometres, but drinks are available at the motel. We were very surprised to return after a day out to find fresh towels and the bed made, something we did not expect on a daily basis, particularly for the reasonable price we were charged. Not too far from the burbs, but felt like a total bush experience, even to the deer passing through the bottom of the garden. ##### Neil Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bruce Jul 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It is a conference centre.

A bit dated, but the room was sufficient for our needs. Bed was hard and had two singles pushed together (to make a king). Can't comment on the food as we didn't eat there but the staff were friendly and welcoming. ##### Fleur Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Val May 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Very small bathroom, Bed just comfortable ##### Val Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ronald Aug 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The location was delightful.

Beautiful grounds. ##### Graham Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Rose Apr 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities The surroundings were beautiful and great facilities . We loved that The room itself was basic but good for the couple of nights we stayed. Could have had a fridge . Room was very cheap which was great Bathroom extremely small and hard to move around in though . We were disappointed that we weren’t able to pay for a buffet breakfast. We were told this by staff but saw this was available to other guests . A breakfast option may be something to look at for other guests not just big groups ##### Rose Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jenny Jul 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very pleasant. Friendly, immaculate, warm. Excellent value for money. Superb gardens, beautifully maintained. It was a one-off trip to see family visiting from the US but would love to see it in the early spring. Only downside irrelevant - those of us from flat places found the mountain roads challenging. ##### Jenny Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Elaine Feb 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful location, clean rooms, close to Olinda and Sassafras. Very handy for exploring the Dandenong Rangers. Staff are friendly. The communal lounge and Pool table were a great bonus. Downfalls - no fridge or microwave in room. We were also booked in the same night as a wedding party, so the after party took place in the rooms beside our's, as well as the courtyard beaide our window, so I was kept awake most of the night, which left me rather angry with a big day of driving and walking ahead of me. ##### Elaine Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Fenella Aug 25, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Signage at entrance is poor as it has another name in large letters and then a small sign saying the panorama etc. very confusing. we drove past and then another km or so there was another sign that took us into the back. The setting is beautiful and quiet. lots of birdlife and rabbits. Dinner is very limited and served in lounge but understand there are other venues within driving distance. Rooms are clean, very small, no bar fridge. Staff are very friendly - polite and accommodating. ##### Fenella Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Allison Nov 18, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities This property was quite nice with beautiful grounds and our cabin was very comfortable, but TBH it was dead. We were there for 1 night and barely saw another guest. There was no restaurant open, and when we came back after having dinner in town, the whole place was deserted. Then when we went back to our cabin, the TV reception was not great, which is fine normally, as most places have smart TVs, and you can just login to your own Netflix. But these were old TVs, and we couldn't even do that. So, with 2 teens with me, we didn't have a lot of options. For almost $400 a night, I was expecting more from it. ##### Allison Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kelsey Jan 21, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities The customer service from staff was great and I cannot fault but a few things to note. On booking we weren’t notified that access was via a dirt road. The breakfast inclusion was disappointing with only cereal, toast and fruit, not hot food. We opted for twin beds and when we moved one we were horrified by the thick dust under the bed that had clearly not been cleaned for months, the shower door did not close and there was an awful smell coming from drain. Our handle on the door broke and locked us inside the room but thankfully staff acted quickly. Disappointed that there was not even a small fridge in the room to keep a bottle of water cold. Pool was a comfortable temperature but needed a really good clean and no lines marked on the tennis courts. ##### Kelsey ### 4/10 Poor #### Maria Mar 23, 2025 Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Not worth the price We booked a superior double room and, for $206, expected much more. The room was small, and the blind barely blocked out any light. In the bathroom, a sign stated the fan wasn’t installed, which led to foggy mirrors, and the lighting was poor. The mounted TV was very small, and there wasn’t even a fridge in the room—just a shared mini fridge in the dining area, which was already full. The bed was uncomfortable, the quilt was thin with only a light blanket, and the top of the cover was open right near our faces. The dining area had a decent deck and a fully stocked bar, including a commercial coffee machine, but the bar was closed (Saturday). Our booking confirmation stated that reception closed at 6 pm, but at 3:20 pm, we received a text advising that it would close at 4 pm, with our key left in an envelope on the counter. When we arrived just after 4, another guest was confused about the process, and we helped him and directed him to his room as there were no staff members available. The gardens and free water were the only positives, which is the only reason we’re giving 2 stars. Super disappointed—especially as the name suggests it’s a resort and retreat, which, in our view, it certainly wasn’t. ##### Maria Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - [Lodging](?equalTargetTab=tab-0) - [Flights](?equalTargetTab=tab-1) - [Packages](?equalTargetTab=tab-2) - [Cars](?equalTargetTab=tab-3) - [Vacation Rentals](?equalTargetTab=tab-4) - [Things to Do](?equalTargetTab=tab-5) - [Urban Apartments Melbourne on Elizabeth](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Urban-Apartments-Melbourne-On-Elizabeth.h967114.Hotel-Information) - [Travelodge Hotel Melbourne Docklands](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Travelodge-Hotel-Melbourne-Docklands.h3033860.Hotel-Information) - [Cape Schanck Holiday Villa](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Cape-Schanck-Holiday-Villa.h100010293.Hotel-Information) - [Nightelier Carrum Downs Sands Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Sands-Hotel-By-Nightcap-Plus.h68813268.Hotel-Information) - [Mercure North Melbourne](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Mercure-North-Melbourne.h548786.Hotel-Information) - [Quest Docklands](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Quest-Docklands.h1343834.Hotel-Information) - [Portsea Village Resort](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Portsea-Village-Resort.h9286254.Hotel-Information) - [Nunawading Motor Inn](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Nunawading-Motor-Inn.h7861916.Hotel-Information) - [Clocktower Apartment Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Clocktower-Apartment-Hotel.h3965337.Hotel-Information) - [Turnkey Accommodation – North Melbourne](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Turnkey-Accommodation-North-Melbourne.h17507558.Hotel-Information) - [Fairways Resort](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Fairways-Resort.h6574528.Hotel-Information) - [Oaks Melbourne St Kilda Road Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Naima-Hotel.h90233387.Hotel-Information) - [Rowville International Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Rowville-International-Hotel.h539177.Hotel-Information) - [Bayview Eden Melbourne](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Bayview-Eden-Melbourne.h20019.Hotel-Information) - [Hyatt Centric Melbourne](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Hyatt-Centric-Melbourne.h70972402.Hotel-Information) - [Tyrian Serviced Apartments - Albert Park Lake](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Tyrian-Serviced-Apartments-Albert-Park-Lake.h19967670.Hotel-Information) - [Nightelier Rye](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Rye-Hotel-One-Four-Nelson.h6582460.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel Cavalier](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Hotel-Cavalier.h22753.Hotel-Information) - [Peppers Moonah Links Resort](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Peppers-Moonah-Links-Resort.h4349521.Hotel-Information) - [Causeway Inn On The Mall](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Hotels-Causeway-Inn-On-The-Mall.h451840.Hotel-Information) - [Flights to Melbourne](https://www.expedia.com/Cheap-Flights-To-Melbourne.d178283.Travel-Guide-Flights) - [Melbourne Vacations](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne.d178283.Destination-Travel-Guides) - [Car rentals near Melbourne](https://www.expedia.com/Car-Rentals-In-Melbourne.d178283.Car-Rental-Guide) - [Melbourne Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.com/Melbourne-Vacation-Rentals.d178283.Travel-Guide-VacationRentals) - [Things to do in Melbourne](https://www.expedia.com/Things-To-Do-In-Melbourne.d178283.Travel-Guide-Activities)
