Glenella Guesthouse

Blue Mountains


Gorgeous, welcoming Glenella has been a guesthouse since 1909. There are several attractive lounge spaces, a stunning dining room and an ex-commercial kitchen where you can cook. Marvellous period features include ceiling mouldings and lead lighting. Rooms range from en-suite heritage rooms (the ones with verandah access are best) to more modern, basic ones with shared bathroom. No children under 16.

At the time of research they were refitting one room to become a quad room. There's also a kitchen and sauna. The rooms don't have TVs, to encourage contemplation and interaction.
