Guest Reviews

• Jason (4/5): - The toilets and shower had no soap hallways smell like dope and they say dont have tv loud but people can stand in hall way outside your room and yell and talk like trash
• Brett (10/5): - Very pleased with our stay, thanks
• Timothy (10/5): - Charming homely guest house accommodation with thoughtful touches and laid-back style
• Steven (8/5): - The STay was good but we didn't realise that "bathroom"was a shared bathroom not an ensuite. Building was nice and the restaurant in the building was greeat. The shared facilities could use an update and some attention
• Samantha (4/5): - The milk in the fridge was out of date. No sugar in the room for coffee. Powerboard was broken and didn’t work. Room was very cold. I normally have a good experience but this time wasn’t the best unfortunately.
• Christina (8/5): - Was a comfortable and cosy stay.
• Chris (4/5): - There was no one to greet us at ~5.30pm. Front door couldn't be locked for the evening. Instructions regarding the front door were not correct. I could not recommend this property to anyone.
• Benjamin (8/5): - Nice, simple and clean place to stay with shared bathroom. Very basic but did the job.
• Elizabeth (10/5): - I will always have a special connection to this place as I used to stay there as a child. All amenities were there; check-in was easy; and room was comfortable. Thanks for a wonderful stay!
• Catherine (10/5): - Fabulous view of the sea. First night wonderfully quiet, second night marred by some noisy neighbour guests.
• Marcie (6/5): - Shower in the ladies bathroom was very poor-no water pressure with either hot or cold water.
• Anthony (8/5): - We had a little trouble finding the old property due to lack of signage . But once found enjoyed staying in the old guest house . It had everything we needed ., very thoughtfully presented .
• Susan (10/5): - Very homely. Beautiful to sit out on balcony at sunset. So convenient to have the restaurant downstairs for casual dining. Sally was so easy to deal with, allowing us to check in early. Thank you!! Have stayed several times before, and will stay again. Home away from home.
• Nicole (2/5): - Don’t bother, all the cups were dirty and stained, the bathrooms were dirty and noise til 3am
• Leanne (8/5): - Bedroom comfortable. Ladies bathroom facilities excellent, male facilities less impressive. Very noisy. Kitchen staff and patrons. Other guests extremely noisy, but management responded quickly and responsibly. Excellent location. Parking provided, parked and didn’t use car again until departure. Staff were friendly and helpful. Overall a pleasant, affordable stay, in a great location. Inconveniences were acceptable.
• Kirstin (6/5): - didn’t see a soul the whole time we were there and even when we got locked out of the room and had to get in through a small gap in a window I still couldn’t find anyone. There was one guy who I sighted briefly at the end of a corridor who perhaps was living there but he didn’t smoke or say hello just looked at me like I was an intruder! Very weird place.
• sat (4/5): - Lots of peoplw were drinking downstairs creating terrible noise. Bed itself very in very bad condition. Couldn't sleep well whole night.
• Clive (10/5): - Great value overnight stay
• Colin (8/5): - Great location if your going on the Blues Train, an easy 10 min walk. Our room although small, was clean & bright and the bed was comfy. Dont be put off re the shared bathrooms, they are clean and functional. Would stay here again.
• Allison (10/5): - Lovely owners who were genuinely keen to make sure my experience there was a good one. Cosy clean rooms, clean shared bathrooms, shared kitchenette. Very conveniently located in the middle of town, and with dining options. Definitely will be staying there again!
• Mark (6/5): Quaint - The room was comfortable, location very good. Obviously an historically old building and as such was a bit worn in parts. The Male shared bathroom was very small. Otherwise we enjoyed the overnight there
• Alan (8/5): - Quaint property, needs more attention to detail, curtains are stained and are not blockout, could use mattress protectors. The showers in the ladies was weak and ineffective.
• John (8/5): - It is like old fashioned pub accommodation, but is much quieter and has much better decor and comfort features. My room was clean and I had a good night's sleep.
• Lesley (6/5): - I liked the charm of the old building and the price of the room. What I didn’t like was - 1. Nobody to welcome us at checkin, just a text message with our room number and key 2. No comfortable lounge area that you would expect in a guest house 3. No water pressure in the female shower 4. None working smoke alarm in room 5. My husband said hello to a gentleman, not sure who he was but we think he may have been the owner. He did not introduce himself nor did he ask who we were * I suppose you get what you pay for but I would have expected more
• Maxwell (8/5): - Circa 1902 is a charming old hostelry with a great restaurant on the ground floor and eas angle parking out front. Daytime restrictions dont matter as you are out and about. It is central and convenient, and clean. The shared bathrooms are a bit poky but manageable. Staff are super friendly and helpful and the door is open mos tof the day. A reading light would have been a useful fitting and bedside located powerpoints. But a great stay and I will be back.
• Wendy (8/5): - This is an old building, the rooms a quite small but fine for solo accommodation, the shared bathroom was not a problem for me. it is a great location. I was in Queenscliff for the Blues Train.
• Jacinta (4/5): - While the building has character, everything is in need of a refresh, especially the men's bathroom. I am happy to share bathroom facilities, but didn't realise it was a shared bathroom between many rooms. One toilet and a shower is not sufficient for the amount of guests staying. Room was clean, but the bed was very wonky.
• david (4/5): - Room no Air conditioning so maybe have fans for circulation.
• Debra (10/5): - Location was great and very easy self checkin and checkout. Bed was very comfortable. Bathroom (shared and unisex) was clean. Saw no staff during our stay.
• Rae (6/5): - Convenient location, got what we paid for but needs air conditioning.The fan was broken and bed light (only one for double) not working. Reminded us of a backpacker's accomm.
• Sam (2/5): - Great position but terrible room - boiling hot night with only a fan to cool room. Whilst appreciating its heritage listing, this room is not fit to rent out in its current form - also badly overpriced.
• Cjmberlij (10/5): - Upon check in, Sally the owner was there to greet us with warm & genuine enthusiasm. The rooms were large and spacious although a ceiling fan would’ve been great. The female shared bathroom were huge and recently renovated. Beds had mattress topper & I slept like a baby even in the 32 degree night. Has a cafe & restaurant with delicious offerings with avail to do room service. Even had carafes of fresh water on the landing for guests & small kitchenette if u wanted to use.right in the heart of town within walking distance to beach, jetty and rail. Would definitely recommend. Thank you, Kim barcellona
• Peter (10/5): - Loved the style of an old-world Hotel, sitting outside on a balmy summer evening with my wife and other guests combined with great food and wine made for a highly enjoyable stay. Sally and Chris went out of their way to provide excellent genuine hospitality
• Lillian (8/5): - Excellent location
• Robert (6/5): - Liked that it was in close proximity to everything. Our room could have been cleaner, there were moths inside. Felt a bit uncomfortable with the shared bathroom. Otherwise, a safe and quite place to stay and within walking distance to everything
• C M (6/5): - Was great for a quick getaway. Balcony was fantastic. Widows didn't lock. Shared bathromm was very clean. Microwave didn't work so bring food that doesn't need cooking!!
• Verified traveler (6/5): - The location and building are outstanding, especially as everything was within walking distance. Parking was easy too. It was a shame that the little things were missing...milk for the tea and coffee, clean cups and spoons, enough toilet paper for the bathroom and water pressure for the shower.
• Birgit (6/5): - Rooms are small but enough for one night. There is not a kitchen just a kettle with tea. Kettle is in the room as well. To get water and wash your cup you have to go to toilet. Too expensive for what you get, but hotel looks nice. It's like it says an old building.
• Angus (8/5): - Was nice staying in an old heritage style building and the rooms were nice. wifi was no good
• Verified traveler (6/5): Just enough for an overnight stay - Wasn't expecting too much since it was kind of cheap but the mattress was really bad, men's bathroom was bit dirty and afterall, $125 felt too much for what we got. I wouldn't expend too long in this place, but for an overnight stay, it'd do it
• paul (6/5): - No remote for tv.Bedside light didn’t work. Had to buy a globe myself.
• nk453 (8/5): History and Charm!! :) - It was lovely to meet Sally and Chris - we were thankful that they left the key with a note in an envelope at the front desk as we weren't sure what time we'd arrive. The convenience was nice and we later met Sally who is amasing. We also spoke to Chris and were pleased to meet the other half who gave us lots of tips for the area as we had never been to Queenscliff before. We loved the room as it was massive and had a fridge along with teas, coffee, water and a kettle. There was a fan and a lovely breeze through the window. A heater and t.v. if we needed it. The beds were clean and there was a lot of accents as the space is well loved. The bathroom is down the hall but we didn't mind - a few steps and we had access to the showers and toilets. The hotel/restaurant is absolutely gorgeous and we felt so lucky to be there. The sea ferry is 4 mts away as is the Bellarine train who does the Polar Express during December. The town is absolutely bustling with the cutest vintage vibes and shops from an era long passed. There are roof tops bars that allow you to see the whole of the area and you can't not see water so if you're a water lover this is place is for you. The hospitality was exactly what we needed - we had never been here before and never been to Queenscliff but pleasantly surprised by the hospitality and the welcoming energy. These two are clearly working so hard and i can't imagine the effort they put in. It's def. now one of our favourite spots - this is a business privately run and its easy to feel like part of the extended fam when you're here. It's just the vibe of this place and it was so wonderful to be a part of that :)
• Edwin (6/5): - Property is old and beautiful, but needs a lot of improvements. There was no staff available during our stay. Men’s bathroom was awkward with doors not locking properly and female bathroom was remodeled but the shower pressure was poor in one stall. The entire place was dark and dreary with musty smells. The place would benefit from a complete remodel.
• Paul (10/5): - Great staff
• Pioneer59485289779 (4/5): Disappointing - Circa 1902 accommodation - Disappointing. Circa 1902 rooms are very poorly appointed and maintained.... similar to a very basic youth hostel but with the charm of an old historic building that is unfortunately not being sufficiently looked after. The shared kitchen is a tiny room with very few facilities, no plates nor cutlery, no sink nor running water. No laundry facilities. The shared bathrooms are also very poorly appointed and shabby. The front desk is rarely manned and cleaners do a very basic job. The upstairs balcony was the best feature of the hotel accommodation with nice views of the main street. The restaurant at ground level is quite lovely and has a good chef and staff.
• Paula (4/5): - Lovely old building but poorly appointed accommodation and poorly maintained. Friendly obliging owners but hardly ever around. Very nice restaurant downstairs that operates from Wednesday to Sunday. It closes early at 8:30 9:00 p.m. so no bother with noise level. Fabulous location. All day parking only available in side streets nearby. Amenities and facilities are not as mentioned - very poor quality. Best to bring everything that you may need for a more comfortable stay. It's hard to see how this accommodation gets three stars -perhaps it's because of the location.
• Harold (10/5): - An air conditioner would have been a welcome addition. The window was very stiff and difficult to open.
• Renee Lee (8/5): - We enjoy staying at this property it is conveniently located, it is in its original state, so be mindful the bathroom is in the hallway and shared by all guests. Rooms are basic but clean and comfortable.
• Colin (10/5): - This property had shared bathroom facilities, but they were fine and the rooms were very comfortable. We dined at the restaurant and enjoyed the ambience of the whole palce
• Corey (2/5): - We booked our room on Wotif, and upon arrival we found no one at the desk around 5 PM, so we contacted the number tied to the booking for Sally to figure out which room and key was ours. She promptly texted us the room number, but there was no envelope for the room we were assigned. Eventually after calling/texting Sally back multiple times with no answer, we found the key in the returned room key basket and saw that the room was not cleaned. We continued calling/texting Sally with no answer. We ended up having to find another hotel 45 minutes away. Wotif could also not reach the hotel to help us get a room or a refund. Sally texted us 2 hours after we attempted to check in and get help to ask if we needed any help. After we updated her on us having to stay somewhere else, both her and Wotif failed to get us a refund despite us not being provided the accommodation that we paid for. Side note: the restaurant was not open at this time either even though the hours posted on google and at the restaurant itself said it would be.
• Alice (10/5): - Treat yourself team
• Maria (10/5): - Once again this property has exceeded my expectations. Absolutely crystal clear clean, cosy and location is A1, in the heart of city Centre, Very affordable. Staff are efficient. Highly recommend. Extremely satisfied will continue booking to stay there.
• David (8/5): - It was a beautiful building and the bed was comfortable if you want an ensuite this isn’t the place for you but the shower and toilets are clean and not far from rooms! Staff were lovely and very helpful would stay again.
• John (6/5): - the shared bathroom facility
• John (2/5): - only one very old mens toilet (pan) with two showers womans was very modern ( 3 toilets & two showers evan so - too few for amount of people staying there very limited parking at rear of building nobody ever at reception & no contact phone number 24 hour kitchenette is a joke and was dirty restaurant below us was very noisy up to 9.30 pm lost power at 1 of 2 power points for 3 days no wi-fi for a day until i tracked down the correct wi-fi tea , coffee and milk left in the room was pathetic the only good thing about this place was the bed I do not understand why expedia would have a place like this on their books to recommend
• Neale (10/5): - The meals were fantastic
• Michael (8/5): - Rooms small, beds average and shared bathroom facilities ordinary
• Gary (8/5): - I liked the old style ambiance of the place. Unfortunately our room had a double bed and I’m 6’4”. Shared bathroom was adequate but could obviously do with a renovation. Low doors could have been an issue if you didn’t look carefully. I would stay there again.
• Jodie (4/5): - Staff were nice room very basic bed terrible and shared bathroom / toilet not very clean
• Louise (10/5): - The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The shared bathroom was immaculate. A great place to lay your head for a night or two.
• Rachel (8/5): - Excellent venue cosy atmosphere .
• Garvit (6/5): - It's a good place to stay overnight for town exploration.
• John (10/5): - Central
• Heather (10/5): - We enjoyed our stay albiet brief! Our room was warm and cosy and the bed extremely comfortable; what more could one ask! Sally, at the desk, was most hospitable, very friendly and welcoming.
• Brooke (10/5): - We were delighted with our room. The presentation, cleanliness and access to a bar downstairs and clean facilities was very pleasing. The staff in the bar / restaurant downstairs were lovely and we would definitely come back again!
• Arden (8/5): - Staff were very helpful.
• Peter (10/5): - We didn't dine, but the owners and staff we extremely helpful and friendly
• Heather (10/5): - What a fabulous place to stay in Queenscliff. Loved our bay window room, beatiful linen and very well presented
• Naomi (4/5): Disappointed - Disappointed, the place looked beautiful from the outside and has a great location. But inside there is a sad air of neglect with paint peeling off walls, the mens bathroom has mould, furnishings are worn and tired, and it’s in desperate need of a deep clean with layers of dust visible in many places (on the fake plants, top of mirror in women’s bathroom, fireplace in bedroom). It also felt like I was staying in a hostel with extra charges if you wanted your room cleaned during your stay or extra towels. This is the first time I’ve left a review like this and I hope the feedback is taken onboard because it has potential to be lovely. Wouldn’t recommend in the current state.
• Charlotte (8/5): - Stayed here whilst we went on the Blues Train. Easy walk from the ferry and to the train station. Shops, cafes etc on your doorstep. Lovely old building. Main door with after hours passcode needs attention, as we struggled to gain entry after many attempts, even with assistance from other returning guests. Lunch and dinner is available in their restaurant. Never saw any staff at check in or exit, just a staff member in the bar area.
• Simone (10/5): - Contactless checking in was good.
• Nadine (8/5): - Old world accommodation in the centre of town, very convenient to shopping and restaurants and the station for Blues & Q Train. Whilst the building is old and remains in original character, some upgrades to the shared bathroom facilities would be a good investment, however if you’re after a comfy large bed for a 1 night stay, this accommodation is satisfactory!
• Anton (6/5): - Don’t like the shared toilet/shower and so far from my bedroom
• Sarah (10/5): - This is a historic property so the facilities have character but I excellently maintained. The art and design of the interior is beautiful and modern. We enjoyed our stay at Circa and will return next year!
• Jasmin (10/5): - Good
• Matthew (10/5): - Overall, very enjoyable stay Sally and Chris were extremely kind and polite and the rooms were exactly what was expected and shown - beds and linen were comfortable and although the bathrooms were shared, they were clean and well maintained The restaurant downstairs also provided high quality and tasty food. I look forward to coming back here again the in the future.
• josatlonsdale (10/5): Great Service Delicious Food wonderful atmosphere - So nice to see Sally and Chris back at Circa. Had a wonderful family dinner. Great service. Wonderful Food. Pumpkin Arancini are the best. The Slow Cooked sticky Beef in Bourbon sauce was so delicious. Fish and chips were Fathead tails and so beautifully cooked. We will be back.
• S910KHkevinw (8/5): Welcome Back Sally and family - Just finished dinner at Circa. It is great to see Sally and her family back in control. The food was stunning. The braised beef was second to none. Tia, daughter, did a great job looking after us. The Heathcote shiraz was spectacular. When in Queenscliff, do not miss it.
• sue (10/5): - Great old world charm
• John (10/5): - Perfect for our stay.
• Chloe (10/5): - Very comfy bed, cosy room within an amazing old building.
• Carly (8/5): - Safety, cleanliness, basic amenities satisfactory for one-night stay
• Gary (4/5): - The owner is very nice, but the stay wasn't. The rooms are very small - just 2-3 feet on each side of the bed. No closet or shelves to hold clothes. All males in the 16 rooms must share 1 toilet and 1 sink (2 showers). The owner has not set up Wi-Fi. You can only get it on an Aussie phone.
• Rosie (10/5): - We will definitely stay again -it has such charm. We loved sitting on the balcony with local fish and chips and sleeping in one of the most comfortable beds we’ve ever slept in.
• Robyn (8/5): - For our purpose of our stay it was convenient.
• Helen (8/5): - Thoroughly enjoyed the stay, and anyone can have a breakdown, the hot water didn’t really inconvenience us! We will come back!
• Maria (4/5): - Very impersonal. No one to meet you. Self check in with key left in an envelope at front desk. Front door key pad not working, guests locked out. Very hot and stuffy room being a hot day. Fan in room broken and not working. Contacted owner by phone and told her we were paying too much for a room where BASIC amenities were not working. I was given instructions to obtain replacement fan from cleaners’ store room - replacement fan was 1000 fold more decrepit than the first!!! Both fans fell apart!!!! Very disappointed with owner’s unsympathetic response regarding broken fan and sounded annoyed that I was inconveniencing her at 9.30pm. I was told that she could not come out as it was out of hours and advised to open balcony windows to get ocean breeze. Being late at night this attracted mosquitoes, flies and felt unsafe as balcony was accessible to all guests and visitors!
• Lyneve (8/5): - So good to stay somewhere close to the Blues Train despite it being a busy Australia Day long weekend. Check in was clearly communicated and hassle free. Rooms spotlessly clean. Only suggestion I would make is bamboo boards/duck board in the shower cubicle yo get off the wet floor after a shower.
• MASAYUKI (4/5): - I cannot use Wifi. Staff stopped Wifi after evening.
• Carola (6/5): - When we arrived we only found key Numbers but no names. I did not receive a message from Expedia. After a phone call I did know the number. Questions. Why do you not send the e-mail anders why use the email if there is no wifi? I am an European without mobile data!!!!!
• Christine (8/5): - Excellent communication and directions. Unfortunately the front door at midnight wouldn’t open and kept self locking. The lovely man that came to our rescue was able to open the door from the inside. He said it was doing this at tge moment. Please have this seen too. It wasn’t a nice feeling standing outside when you’re tired and instructions weren’t working. Otherwise a lovely comfy bed and nice and quiet. We’ll be back. Thankyou
• Debra (10/5): - We loved the old world charm and it’s convenience to the main shopping area. Also within walking distance to the beach. Peaceful and safe setting, loved our stay.
• Dean (8/5): - Heritage I liked room was well presented kitchen facilities were poor but had a fridge to store stuff
• Sam (6/5): - Great spot. Nice old fashioned feel. The view from the room was lovely. But the experience felt impersonal. I didn't feel welcome. And the code door opener to get back in the building from a walk wouldn't work so I was stuck outside but then some people were leaving and I managed to get in.
• Che (8/5): - Great location. Simple and clean accommodation. Perfect for short stays.
• Trevor (6/5): - Unfortunate having to share common bathroom facilities although clean not what we were after
• Alan (6/5): - Old property with small rooms- no room for wardrobe or drawers. Comfortable bed with fridge, tv, fan and heater. Did not like the shared bathroom, but was made aware of this.
• Sally (10/5): - We like that the Accommodation was quiet. It is right in the middle of town. Easy to walk to everything. Loved the balcony out the front
• Louise (4/5): - It's lucky I brought my own pillow because the pillows here stunk of head grease. This place has more of a youth hostel vibe than a hotel. Someone's dirty flannel had been left hanging on the door. The toilets and showers are down the corridor and I did not. Look forward to having a shower. There is dust and spider webs on the air vents and the curtains aren't put up straight. There's a lot of paint work that needs fixing up. The rooms are not soundproofed and I was working up by very rude people arriving late at night - The noise they made seemed to go on endlessly. At least the bed was very comfortable and I appreciate that these people are looking after such a lovely old building. It's just that it seems that cleaners must be hard to come by in Queenscliff.
• J6984APlizg (4/5): Pillows smell of head grease - The pillows smell of head grease. The bathroom is a long way down the hall and is pretty ordinary. It says the reception closes at 6. :00 but you get there before and they've just left your key in an envelope.
