• The Hydro Majestic, Great Western Highway. This grand hotel began its life in 1904 as a health resort, and it is the main attraction of Medlow Bath. The view from the over the Megalong Valley is simply stunning, with large glass windows in the restaurants and lobby. The hotel has been renovated. If you do not stay here, it is still worth having high tea in the Wintergarden. (updated Nov 2016)
