THE ULTIMATE HERITAGE EXPERIENCE

Alight at Medlow Bath where you will be escorted across the road to the beautifully restored Hydro Majestic Hotel. Once inside the hotel, enjoy your choice of the luxury and plush surrounds of the Ballroom within one of Australia’s most iconic hotels, or the panoramic views overlooking the Megalong Valley within the Wintergarden room. 

The Hydro Majestic high teas are served to your table on a three-tiered silver stand and consist of petite pastries and a selection of finger sandwiches. Freshly baked scones are served with homemade jam and fresh clotted cream. Freshly brewed specialty teas and coffees are also brought to your table throughout this 1.5 hour sitting.
