Guest Reviews
- Karen (10/5): -
- Nenad (7/5): -
- Malcolm (8/5): Easy, friendly check in. Comfortable room and bed WITH an electric blanket!. - Have stayed here previously. I think that there are two levels of rooms. This one was older but still very comfortable. Rooms have electric blankets which is a big plus in Ararat.
Good bed and not the transport noise that you find at some other motels along the highway.. will be back. No issues
- Nott (7/5): id come again. - cleanliness, bed. i was in an adaptable unit ie one for wheel chairs. i didnt really like the shower.
- Amanda (10/5): Comfortable, clean for a short stop over whilst travelling - Clean and comfortable
- Rene (8/5): - Clean, comfortable A bit dated, late night arrivals of guests, arguing ,slamming doors disturbing sleep. Not motels fault , just inconsiderate guests .
- Meg (10/5): Cleanest hotel I've stayed in for along time. including 5 star hotels - Very Clean! Big rooms to be super critical the beds were a little uncomfortable but for the price you cant expect 5 star beds
- James (8/5): Large comfortable room walking distance to town. - Spacious comfortable clean room with a large bathroom and all facilities for in-room dining.
Close to town centre and easy on site parking at your door. Lovely owner at reception. Breakfast included at the room rate would be a bonus.

- Marina (3/5): Don’t stay here if you dislike big spiders and can’t shower over a bath - Owner polite gave us 2 cans of spider killer. Spider once we got in the door. Bed not comfortable. Couldn’t have a shower as the shower head was above the bath. Older people can’t get in and out of shower baths without risk of falling

- Steiny62 (8/5): Overall a good stay and good value. Will consider again when we are in the area - Rooms were dated but very clean and tidy. Staff were friendly and communicated well.
All ground floor rooms and could park right outside the room.
Having a microwave and all cutlery in the room was great. Lots of noise from trains and trucks 24/7. Not good for light sleepers.
Mattress probably due for a change. Not very supportive.

Had a fridge, microwave, iron........the basics.
I also love the grape vines framing the awnings. My TV had an issue that made it hard to watch.
The ironing board could do with some padding as well.

- Kristina (7/5): -
- Tobias (8/5): We liked this place very much as we had everything we needed and the location was also great. - The room was clean. The mattress was a bit soft. All in all a very nice place to stay. The branches of the tree made noises when it was windy by rubbing on top of the roof.
If the neighbor used water on their end by using the shower or perhaps the sink a loud banging noise seemed to come from the pipes in the walls.
- Kate (7/5): -
- Anne-Laure (8/5): -
- Heather (10/5): - Easy walking distance to shops, supermarkets. Easy driving distances to the Grampions, Halls gap
- Heather (10/5): We will definitely be staying again - We have family in Ararat so was easy to visit. A easy walk to the shops, supermarket and eating places Only complaint pillows on bed were very poor need upgrading
- rob (5/5): comfortable room but far to noisy from traffic and trains. - nice comfortable large rooms . unfortunately extremely noisy traffic and trains middle of the night
- Null (10/5): -
- Carole (8/5): Relaxing break on long journey - Value for money All good
- Brigitta (7/5): - Easy to find and access. We arrived later than planned and the staff found a way to give us the key anyway. When we left, I didn’t even need to take the keys back to reception, a staff member took it from me as they saw us getting ready to go. Big enough room for two, bathroom is nice and clean. The air conditioner was old and loud, woke us up several times.
- Tony (8/5): -
- Claire (7/5): Basic but close to amenities - The room and bathroom were a good size. The hotel is on the main street but it is fairly quiet. And you aren't far from the town centre. It's very centrally located. The bedhead wasn't attached to bed or wall so I'd tou knocked it it banged. The kettle is nearly past its use by date. Made a cup of tea and it had floaty bits. Pillows were a bit soft but that's a personal preference.
