The Daylesford Hotel was originally built in the early gold rush days of the 1850’s and was one of Daylesford’s first licensed establishments and still remains as one of Daylesford’s Landmark buildings.

The present building was rebuilt in 1913 by the Tognini family and today the hotel retains many of its 1900’s features.

Situated right the heart of Daylesford, it still serves as one of Daylesford’s most favoured watering holes. Locals still meet to chew the fat with other locals and tourists and people from all walks of Life, and why wouldn’t they? The Hotel is still locally owned and managed by Daylesfordians.

Just a short trip to lake Daylesford or Jubilee lake, picturesque and peaceful surrounds for boating, fishing, swimming, picnics and bushwalking.
