Easter is also a perfect time to escape the city and with rates starting from $50 at Grand Mercure Pinnacle Valley the Victorian high country beckons.  Horse riding, fly fishing and 4-wheel-driving are all on offer and from just $120 you can also enjoy Grand Mercure Mt Buller before the high country wildlife is covered in snow!  Of course, if a Melbourne shopping spree is your desire, great rates at the Mercure Hotel Welcome start from $80 or the Crossley Hotel in the heart of Chinatown from $102.

Catch the last of the summer sun and head north to the tranquility of the Sunshine Coast staying at Novotel Twin Waters Resort from $115 or go all the way to the tropics and enjoy a getaway at Mercure Inn Townsville from $114 or Grand Mercure Rockford Esplanade Palm Cove, just north of Cairns, from $164.

For an Easter escape to remember visit Australia’s red centre staying at Novotel Outback Alice Springs from just $75.  A stopover in Katherine is another must with the scenic Nitmilu Gorge, Edith Falls and historical Springvale Homestead all ready to explore from your base at the All Seasons Katherine from $77.
