Swiss Mountain Hotel
Pub dining$$
Melbourne restaurateur Stavros Konis – part of long-running Richmond restaurant Salona and a former partner at Kafeneion – has a new passion project. And it’s not Greek. Around April 2026, he and wife Alexandra took over the 1860s-built Swiss Mountain Hotel near Daylesford. “As soon as I saw it I fell in love,” Konis says. Their new menu focuses on pub classics done well, with a touch of Swiss influence as a nod to the hotel’s original owners. While the pub itself is up and running, the couple are working on restoring an old cottage for accommodation, plus adding a general store filled with local produce and an outdoor kitchen for Sunday spit roasts.
