We stayed at The Best Western Southgate Motel just a few nights ago and have stayed a few times before. It is always a great stay when we are there. We were pleased to see the management are slowly being able to give it a facelift. The restaurant is looking great and the HUGE foyer and corridors were being painted... more

We have actually stayed at this particular hotel a few times. Every time we have stayed there, it has been excellent. We have never had any problem checking in. Sure when we walked in, there was no body at the front desk, but there is a pager button there, so we pressed it. We were attended to quite promptly. We... more

Having stay here before on a trip through mount gambier, we thought we would give it another go. Last time, there was some slight noise from pipes, etc, but the young gentleman on reception advised us those issues had been rectified so we thought why not give it another go. From check in to Check out everything was exceptional, the... more

Everything was faltless, the southgate was great, excellent staff, excellent food, excellent rooms AND to top it off so friendly, nothing was too hard. Thankyou for a great night in the Limestone coast and i... more

Friends stayed in several Best Western hotels (not the Southgate) along the Great Ocean Road from Melbourne to Adelaide, in Feb 2007 and were less than satisfied at the standard and I note that the Southgate Motel has had some bad reviews, but interestingly nothing since 2005 (there was no nylon or flocked wallpaper around in Jan 2008!!). We drove... more

Stayed here one night on the way to kangaroo island, its on the main road into town along with a couple of other hotels. From the outside it didn't look too bad so we thought to give it a go. The staff were friendly enough and she asked us if we wanted to upgrade from the basic room. As we... more

What a lot of whingers. I have stayed at The Southgate Motel many times for both business and travelling with my family and have found the hosts and their staff to be of exceptional standard. I have been involved in large conferences, family celebrations and small conferences. Each time I found the food and service in the restaurant to be... more
