- Greg (9/5): Comfortable country hospitality. - Supurb customer service. Travelling with a group of motorcyclists, travelling through heavy rain and arrived soggy and cold. Without needing to ask, arrangements were made for us to spread out and dry off and get us and our bikes further out of the weather. Recommendations for dinner at the nearby Terminus Hotel were spot on. The weather ⛈️ a little beyond the control of the operators of the motel though 😂

Our dog did not want to leave when we wanted to leave. Just the road noise for a start.
- Judy (9/5): - A comfortable spacious room, with good facilities.
- Judith (7/5): - Location was fine Bath room was a bit small.
Take out the bath to make more spacious
- Heidi (10/5): - Owners Kerry and Rod were welcoming with bottles of water on arrival on a hot day. Air con was turned on before arrival as well. Rooms were immaculate, pet friendly, clean and big enough for a large family. We were even able to check in early. Definitely recommend staying here.
- Chrisie (10/5): Comfortable, clean and great amenities - Didn't have breakfast at the motel. All was good
- Charmaine (8/5): - The staff I interacted with before and while checking in were lovely. The room was large and clean. The location was really central, right across the road from a great pub, walking distance to the centre of town and right near the river. Good solid option for the town if you need a place to stay. The wifi signal wasn't strong in my room and my 4G signal wasn't strong either so I find it difficult to get internet on any devices that were relying on wifi.

- Chantelle (10/5): Hidden Gem - This Motel is a hidden gem in Tocumwal.
The staff are extremley friendly and proffessional and you feel welcome from the moment you step in to reception.
The rooms are spotlessy clean and fresh .
No detail is missed here.
We stay in many motels and although the Birch is older style it is up there with expensive motels in the cities.
Kerry does both reception and cleaning here and she is meticulious in what she does in the rooms.
Her husband maintains the yard maintenance and pool and he does a wonderful job .
The surrounds are well kept and grass is nice and green.
Not something you see at alot of motels.
We will be back and highly recommend the motel.
You will no be disappointed.
Thank you Kerry and Rod for such a wonderful overnight stay. There is not anything not to like.
- Tash (10/5): - My partner and I had a wonderful stay here with our dog. The accommodation was fantastic and the staff were so friendly and welcoming. Rod & Kerry have really set the tone with their hospitality, not to mention, happy to sit back and have a chat together over a beer, it genuinely felt like you’re with family here. When we had car trouble on the day we were leaving, Kerry went above and beyond by allowing us to stay an extra night and referring us to her mechanic. Such genuine kindness, care, and helpfulness. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and highly recommend staying here.

- tika camin (9/5): I would come back, if I come back this way again - Very close to the town centre, bed was very comfortable, and staff were friendly 👌 Might need to blow or sweep footpath and clean outside tables.
Also there were no face washers, and the shower had a very big handful of hair in the bottom of the shower 😳

- Tennille (7/5): - The pool was good. Beds were comfy. Room was older style but still ok. Great value for money. 2 entries to accomodate taller vehicles. The continuous stench of ciggie smoke from other rooms chain smoking outside their doors. Smoke lingered in the area. Other guests having dogs in the pool and pool area. Aircon took a long time to cool down. Microwave hadn't been wiped out and cutlery/crockery wasn't washed properly.
- Mitch (10/5): -
- Scott (9/5): -
- Brie (10/5): -
- Joanne (10/5): Close to everything and everything we needed. Amazing manager who makes you feel welcome - We stay here all the time and now with new management it’s back to the high standard it used to be. Clean, tidy and the pool was spotless. Thank you for having new management. Couldn’t fault anything
- Alyce (6/5): -
- Nicholas (10/5): -
- tony (9/5): -
- Kerri (10/5): Thank you for your exceptional service. - The owners were very friendly and helpful. We had a seamless stay and really enjoyed ourselves. The kids lived in the pool. Our dog Daisy had a nice stay too. Honestly couldn’t have asked for a better stay. The hosts went above and beyond. We will be back.
- Samantha (10/5): Lovely little motel - Clean and tidy
- karlee (10/5): - Great friendly service, and pet friendly. You can also book for only one night over a long weekend which was great. Nothing, all was amazing.
- April (9/5): Great! Very cozy and comfortable. A standout feature is the cleanliness of the room. - My daughter and I stayed at Birch Motel for three nights on the weekend of the 24/10/2025. The place is a little dated, however I had read the reviews, so this was to be expected. However, I was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable and clean the room was. It was spotless! The room had all of the conveniences that you require for a few days stay, even plenty of coat hangers! The bed was comfy and the towels nice and fluffy. I've never seen a motel bed made up more perfectly ever! A lovely quiet environment and we didn't hear any noise. A large BBQ area is available, and the pool looked lovely, although it was too cold for us to swim. IGA and eateries are within walking distance. The motel was so cozy that I would have happily stayed longer. The heating was great, and we had no issues with the Wi-Fi. Kerry and Rod are brilliant hosts and nothing was too much trouble. I had rung to say that we would be arriving late, and they said that was fine. Then I asked to stay an extra night, and that was not a problem either. Also, Kerry stopped for a chat and is good for a laugh! Definitely will be back. Beats some of Melbourne motels that are twice the price easily. Not a great deal. It's hard to fault this motel. You get way more than you pay for!
