Guest Reviews
- Rae (5/5): - Good position Heating was terrible, room did not heat up even with a floor heater and Air con on all night.
- Di (7/5): The room was quite clean and spacious, a good size TV and comfortable bed. A big sliding door out to a nice outdoor are - Lots of space, quiet and we could bring our dog. It does look a bit run down from the outside
- Polo (10/5): Strongly recommended - Close to every thing and convenience into town centre 👍👍👍room very nice and clean. Close to every thing and convenience into town centre 👍👍👍room very nice and clean.
- Leif (10/5): - A lovely big room looking into a courtyard. High ceilings. An armchair as well as a table and chair. Nothing to dislike
- ANTHONY (7/5): - Everthing
- Rob (7/5): - Check in and out was simple, owner was obliging The grounds need a tidy up.
The deodoriser in the room was far too strong.
Two small dogs were in the room beside us, luckily it was not a problem as they were quiet, but they should keep pets in one area, my wife often suffers from pet dander allergy which is a real problem if pets have previously been in the room
- Lisa (8/5): -
- Natasha (9/5): - Beautiful clean rooms, bed was comfortable bonus it had a electric blanket. .
- Chloe (8/5): Great location and lovely staff. - Great location, lovely huge room and coffee tea making facilities. The rooms weren't sound proof. I could here the TV in the room next door. If they had better sound proofing I'd definitely rate the motel higher.
- Gregory (7/5): I enjoyed my stay, just wish I could leave the curtains open no sheer curtains for privacy. - Spa was not very clean, room a bit dated, no sheer curtains for privacy.
- Jeanette (5/5): Rather unhappy with general stay - Location, friendly staff. Comfortable and clean beds , nice hot water General cleanliness was poor, one electric blanket had the plug cut off , power point hanging out of wall, shower dripping all night , hand prints on mirror , needs a lot of work, holes in curtains and very soiled. We had room 8
- Andrew (10/5): -
- Anna (7/5): Perfect little country stay. - Have stayed here many times with our dog. It’s in the perfect location, so close to town with a walk along the river. The staff are lovely and super accommodating 😊 It is very dated these days and the rooms are quite dark and the walls to the next rooms are very thin 😅😅 BUT the price and location is fine for a short stay.
- Lynne (4/5): Not value for money - Bed was ok Needs a good maintenance plan bathroom was substandard. Grout in parts was black and not inviting for a shower however water was hot and shower head was good. Room decor was in a time warp.
- Nadia (9/5): Lovely relaxing and enjoyable stay with the family & dog - Great little place, cute setup and great location to take the kids and dog to bright. We will stay again! Location, setup and price
- Stephen (6/5): -
- tania (9/5): - Dog friendly spacious close to river and Bright shopping restaurants A little dated
- Rohit (6/5): great location and comfortable stay. - room well maintained with clean vacuum floor, comfortable bed, pillows, heating, cooling, tea coffee facilities. Parking was spacious Bathroom floor tiles need an upgrade, the next-door neighbor room 28 spa was too noisy when they started at 7 am, we were woken up with the loud noise that continued for over 20 min, we then avoided starting our spa as the motor did not have any noise protection cover etc to avoid noise.
- Dean (9/5): -
- Merrilyn (7/5): Autumn colours in Bright - Location is great, a short walk or drive into the town centre. Room was clean, outlook into back garden was lovely. Good internet Property is looking a little run down, the heater could barely keep the room warm, all the heat was in the vaulted ceiling.
- Veronica (7/5): -
- Mark (8/5): -
- Thi Minh Ngoc (8/5): Good - Good location Nothing
- Mohammed (8/5): -
- Tso (3/5): We were dissappointed. Premium price for sub standard motel room - Bed Everything else. Outdated. Overly priced. Unwelcoming.
- Bhatt (8/5): - Nice place to stay. The bathroom has no lock.
- Kylie (8/5): Lovely weekend away - Location and staff Rooms in need of a renovation
- Devendra (3/5): Find somethig else if available - Location Very old place. Felt cold even with heater.

- Leonie (8/5): A spacious, peaceful retreat with great facilities. - Excellent room with more than enough space to organise hiking gear. The bathroom facilities were top-notch; having both a nice bath and a powerful, high-quality hairdryer was a much-appreciated luxury. The location offers the best of both worlds—quiet nights and a short, scenic riverside walk into the center of town. Nothing to complain about! It met all our expectations.
- Kate (4/5): -
- Peter (7/5): Spacious room with tub at good price - Spa in room Old inside and out
- Jill (7/5): Did the job. Thanks! -
- Shaz Tomlin (10/5): -
- Claudia (8/5): -
- David (5/5): -
- Kim (3/5): very poor experience considering the cost - clean linen and bathroom facilities. The remote control for the TV did not work and required us downloading an app to our phones.
There was a residual food smell in the space which required us needing to purchase and use spray air freshener
- Andrea (9/5): Good budget accommodation, close to Bright township. The decor is a bit dated, but room was clean and tidy and spacious. - Good location. Good size room. The bed was lumpy. The decor was dated.
- Jackie (7/5): Great location could do with an upgrade but liked stepping back in time with the interior. - Very dated but clean. Property was fine
- Kelly (8/5): -
- Michelle (10/5): -
- Johny (7/5): -
- melissa (9/5): -
- Susanna (5/5): Nice location but with a few small improvements to service, could be fantastic - The grounds and the pool were good, the location was ideal and the bed was comfy Staff were not accessible at all - no interaction
No visitor info folder which includes safety info, how to use the ammenities (tv info), shower cubical leaked everywhere, living room light kept flickering as if breaking, room services did not change towels or empty bins or replace milk or tea/coffee supplies (we were in for a 4 night stay) or replace toilet paper
The stay could be so much better with a few small service changes.
- Pam (7/5): -
- Jess (8/5): Nice quiet motor inn just outside of Bright town centre! Great staff, good facilities! - Staff were lovely, having foxtel was great, easy walk into town, great value for money!
- albi (8/5): - Good location walking distance into town
- Kathy (7/5): Great location and facilities - Great set up for families with space for children to play. Barbecue area and pool.
- Paul (9/5): I've stayed at 3 motels in Bright and this was the best. I'll be back. - Very friendly check-in service. The room was spacious and well-equipped with everything you could need. I'd definitely return.
- David (8/5): - Had all the facilities you would require for a pleasant stay. Unfortunately all the facilities were a little dated and overall the whole place could use a little bit of TLC.
- Abdul (9/5): -
- Brad (8/5): -
- Anthony (7/5): A good weekend experience - Reasonable price for what you get The whole facilities are a little tired, however, where clean.
- Alexander (8/5): -
- Robert (5/5): -
- Raj (8/5): - Great location, well managed rooms, friendly staff Due to rain, the road inside the property was muddy and felt like you are off roading.
- Lee (8/5): - Great cause I could take my toy poodle
- rundle (8/5): A good stay - It probably just needs a bit of an upgrade in some areas but we’ve stayed many times. Bathroom and shower go
- KERRIE (6/5): -
- Elwyna (5/5): Reception staff was lovely, location quiet but wow, the room needs an update. A comfortable bed isn’t enough. - It was in a quiet location. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom was very very dated. Shower tiles grout appeared very mouldy.
What a silly location to place the fridge- in the bathroom with the toaster and electric kettle?? Also hardly any power points anywhere!
- Phillips (9/5): -
- Danny (10/5): -
- Helen (8/5): Very good - Made to feel welcome, good maps offered No plug in the basin, though we are discovering this is common in motels.
- Peta (8/5): - Spa Mattress
- Danielle (8/5): - The staff were extremely friendly, dogs are allowed for an additional fee, the room was as described, the location was fantastic The room was a bit dusty but overall the cleanliness was acceptable
- Chris (8/5): -
- SALLY (7/5): -
- Gethin (8/5): -
- Brendan (3/5): -
- Dianne (8/5): - I liked the pet friendly relaxed environment
- Arthur (8/5): - Room large and VERY clean Access road to units in a lstate of disrepair and I should have looked harder when booking as a bit too far to walk to food outlets.
- kristie (7/5): Perfect for what we needed - Location was great
Rooms were cosy and dark we had to set an alarm to wake us up
Plenty of space and room Beds were a bit uncomfy and out of shape
Bathrooms could be redone very old but still clean and purposeful
- Richard (5/5): The Motel was Ok for our short overnight stay. - The room was clean and comfortable The complex is old and requires a lot of work to bring it up to standard. The driveway was muddy and appered to be a work in progress. The location was great and there is definatley potential in the site but it does require a lot of work.
- Ruggles (7/5): Really well located motel which accommodates dogs - The motel was dog friendly which was brilliant and on a walking track along the river leading into the centre of Bright
We used the BbQ to cook dinner and the first night walked the dogs into the brewery for dinner
The movie channels were really good and unexpected The drapes didn’t pull back properly but we were happy to be in a room that accommodated dogs as well so figured it would be one that wasn’t quite 100%
- Miha (7/5): -
- Sheila (8/5): Average property need upgrading - Not much The roads in the property were very bad
- Jonathan (9/5): - Area and Whitney the manager was cool
- Craig (7/5): suited my needs - Bed was comfortable.
Foxtel a bonus Car parking area needs improving
- Chelsea (10/5): Super spacious for a cheap stay! - The room was really spacious for two! The property is a bit on the older side peeling paint on the wall but it’s fine and no charging points near the bed but again for the price it’s fine.
- KA (7/5): Simple but clean and affordable, would stay again. - Simple, dated decor but clean, with easy access to the river trail and also to town centre by foot. I think carpet may have been fairly new, so may be in process of doing some updates. Easy check in and pet-friendly - they happily accommodated our greyhound. Good value for money. Facilities a bit run down - children's playground was taped off and pool needs some work. We didn't use but might matter to others. I suspect that they're on the "to do list"
- Caroline (2/5): -
- Kerry (9/5): Always great value, friendly staff and lovely quiet spot with great walks. We’ll definitely be back. - Great place to stay - great value. We’ve stayed here before and will definitely stay here in the future. Thanks guys! Would benefit from a makeover in the bathroom.
- Mark (8/5): - Very helpful owner and staff A 20 min walk to centre of town
- Les (9/5): -
- Ruth (8/5): A good value place for Bright, can walk into town. - The room was spacious and had good facilities like kettle, toaster and microwave. You could reach the Canyon Walk down the lane next door, which was then only 15min walk into town and I also found a great swim hole close by in the Ovens River. There was a huntsman spider hiding in the curtains when I drew them closed the first night! The net curtains were torn and need replacing. I'd suggest a comfy mattress topper on the beds would improve their comfiness.
- Patto_Family_4 (6/5): -
- Hannes (10/5): - All good...
- Frank (8/5): -
- Pat (5/5): - Location Old needs update
- Andrew (9/5): - The owner was a lovely person to check me in.
- Daniel (5/5): It was cheap but prob won't stay again - It was out of the way and quiet Beds weren't very comfortable. Super hard. The rooms desperately need renovating
- David (9/5): Bright stay - Friendly staff nice grass Quadrangle with pool area
Close to Canyon river walk & miners diggings Nothing
- Gaby (5/5): Handy location but needs a good spruce-up. - Proximity to Bright. The pool. Everything is looking very tired, particularly the grounds and exterior of the building. Dead pot plants everywhere, unkempt lawn.
- Rebecca (8/5): -
- Alice (9/5): - Clean and comfortable rooms, pool was great and right outside the door, and it is walking distance to Bright city centre. There is also a microwave in the rooms which I wasn't expecting. Nothing
- Yashasvi (10/5): Excellent -
- Karen (7/5): -
- David (10/5): - Had a wonderful stay in a spacious room with a beautiful, peaceful location amongst nature
- Martin (8/5): Very relaxing and enjoyable. - It was clean and very comfortable. Water pressure was great, we had great stay. The pool lining, mainly the small kids pool, was flaking off. Could use a little TLC. The kids were also looking forward to the play equipment and were a bit disappointed that it was broken and taped off.
- KATHLEEN (8/5): Highly recommend - Great value for money
Location near river
Easy walk to town
Happy to have dogs stay Needs a bit of modernising
- Goldie (9/5): Had great fun and amazing experience - Location is prefect you will never anything. Everything was great but needs a bit of updating with time.
