- Nicole (8/5): - This is my go to accommodation when I travel between Vic/NSW. Love having a bevvie or two on the beautiful old balcony, and the rooms are clean, have all the basics, and very comfy beds. The slightly outdated decor can be excused with the bargain price you pay.. And staff are always very friendly and accommodating.
- Sofia (10/5): -
- Peter (8/5): -
- Brent (7/5): Good for the one night stopover. - Great location and not bad for pub accommodation.
Great food in the restaurant. The room was a pit tight, but okay for the one night. The main bed was small and not great, but the kids in the singles slept fine.

- Eril (8/5): -
- Gary (9/5): -
- Denise (6/5): Would not recommend this establishment. - The room we were given the door didn’t lock or close and when we made enquiries we were told the locksmith would come soon. It was late Friday and we waited but no one came. The staff were extremely rude when we asked for another room so we could sight see. We were expected to guard our room. We were told the door was broken, so why put us in it? When I took a heavy case to car park, for an instant I took my hand off the door and got locked out. I had to wait until someone else let me in because my phone was in my other bag inside. All doors were locked. I felt we were second rate people and their priority was to their dining guests. Most rooms were empty!
- Peter (8/5): - Clean, well maintained, comfy.
- Alexandra (6/5): -
- Peter (9/5): Great choice for a one night stopover on our way up north. - All staff were friendly, helpful and efficient. TV/internet were great, bed/pillows very comfortable and ensuite was spotless. Beer/wine reasonably priced and our dinner was very tasty. Nothing
- Kerry (6/5): Average - 3 flights of stairs were ridiculous this should be noted on booking Stairs !!!!!!!!
No toaster in the room

- Emma (8/5): Great value for money, would book again if needing accommodation in the area - Large clean room, definitely value for money. Managed to arrive for dinner, food was great.
- ebony (10/5): - Excellent, will come back and stay again
- Caroline (8/5): - Location was great. The restaurant downstairs had really good food. They had a band on downstairs too which was fun and a cocktail bar. It would have been good if they had a toaster and microwave and bowls and more cutlery so we could have breakfast in our room.
- Geoff (8/5): - Great location.
- Kerry (9/5): - As expected for the price
Great value for location and clean and comfortable
- Michael (9/5): -
- Stephen (8/5): Great place to rest for 1 night - Very helpful staff that explained everything about the tavern including how to get dinner. A bedside charger would have been helpful rather than having to move the bed to find a power point.
- Rahel (8/5): Pleasant - Comfortable room Nothing
- Rahel (8/5): Pleasant experience - Comfortable room Nothing
- Baggio (6/5): -
- Jason (8/5): Cozy Aussie pub motel. - Good location, walking distance to shops and restaurant's. Great verandah over looking a park. Friendly staff, undercover parking. Bistro serves tasty pub meals, cocktail bar out the back.
- Stephen (10/5): I had stayed here before, great location, close to transport links, friendly atmosphere. - I only ate in the evenings and the food was fantastic, staff were also very friendly. There is nothing to criticise.
- Peter (9/5): - Clean comfortable room. Value for $$$s
- William (10/5): Great Location, friendly staff, excellent room and great value for money. Why stay anywhere else? It has all you need. - We had a great 1 night stay at the Mitchell River Tavern.
It started with us arriving and having lunch which was excellent quality and great value for money.
Checking in was very simple with clear instructions and directions.
Food was so good we decided to go and have dinner there too. It was extremely busy but the friendly staff assisted and had a table for us before we’d even had our cocktails made at the cocktail bar as we had a short wait for a table to become available. Food was on point as was the great service. Cocktail bar was so good we went back for more. The room was immaculate and clean, the bed comfortable and spacious.
- Stuart (10/5): - I booked late in busy season. The accomodation was close to everything. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room, bed and bedding were in excellent order and clean. I haven’t stayed in accomm like it before and was surprised and pleased with it. Would recommend it to anyone.
- Stephen (9/5): - Clean comfortable room with good bed and shower
- Peter (8/5): Narooma and Back - Overnight stay. Close to centre of town so an easy walk around the shops. Restaurant had a good menu and staff very friendly and helpful. Wednesday night and restaurant was full so this indicates the popularity and quality of the hotel.
- Mark (8/5): Really good - All good, we had a studio room so small but still comfortable Had to carry luggage up quite a few stairs, no lift
- Joe (7/5): Average - No breakfast AlC units on and off all night no sleep
- Kellie (10/5): Recommend - Updated our room to suit us instantly free of charge. Very friendly and welcoming
- Monica (10/5): - Friendly and helpful chustomer service!
- Carissa (5/5): Not again. - Bed was awful. Sat down on the bed and rolled away. Got no sleep, could feel the springs in the mattress digging into your back. Very noisy and paper thin walls
