We just recently went to Mt Gambier for Easter and we stayed at the Blue Lake Motel, on first appearance yes it does look a little old and unrenovated but we were warmly greeted and the room was exactly what we paid for. We stayed in the family room which had yes just a double bed but it was quiet... More

I recently stayed here while traveling through Mt Gambier on a motoring holiday. The room was a good size, a bit retro looking but very well maintained. The motel was about about 2 kms from the city center. The price of the room was also unbelieveable. Don't drive past this one!. Ian

We spent a night here on our travels along the Great Ocean Road. We had read the reviews on here and decided to give it a shot. The room we had was large enough and clean and tidy. Tea and coffee, fridge, toaster etc. When we checked in we mentioned a deal on the web that included breakfast and the... More

We spent a night here on our way to Melbourne from Adelaide; a very convenient stopping off place! Although dated it was clean and well equipped, with a fridge, tea, coffee, milk and a very good cooked breakfast. A peaceful location, on the edge of the town. The owners were friendly and helpful and at $70 per room we felt... More

We spent three enjoyable nights at this Motel.The room was large and very well appointed with ample luggage and storage space. The Motel was just far enough off the main road to be away from the traffic noise. Because it was up a hill the view across the valley through a large picture window was a great feature.We would return... More

We had a great stay, payed $70 nice and quiet off the highway, handy to town. Guest Kitchen bit old and the whole property is aged but clean bed, hot shower, which is all we needed. Next time we are in Mt Gambier we will go there again. Don't know what these other reviews expect for $70 per night

Had booked a family room at $160 per night was offered two separate rooms. Small, old smelly perfect immitation of 1960's very poor quality motel. Postage stamp size bathroom, lack of paint on walls tiniest TV on market, old airconditioner. Book this if you want to stay in a great immitation of a run down dump. I refused to stay.... More

As we all know, there are TWO sides to every story and you are only getting the side from a very abusive and rude customer. I refuse to go into furthur detail on this website as the customer has done. The customer was unwilling to have a civil and calm conversation face to face but instead has chosen to attack... More

Hi Kylie, WIFI is not limited to 2 hours you may have as much as you like, this is satisfactory for most guests. The FREE breakfast deal was on Double and Queen Rooms Only, you booked an Economy Twin. I'm glad you had a great nights sleep, thankyou for the benefit of the doubt. As for other issues you were...
