We stayed here as part of our tour, wasn't our first choice which was full. The room was fine and overlooked the main road and water way and had everything we needed. It is at the end if the town but since Lakes Entrance isn't too big it doesn't really matter. The dining room is quite expensive but the dinner... More

Our room was well equipped, clean and well presented. The bathroom looks newly modernized. Although it is two-storey we have not been disturbed by the people in the room above. The free wifi was welcomed. Very happy with our stay.

The room was very small no where to put the third suitcase. The reception staff where friendly and helpful. We ate in Clancys... More

The motel is located on the main road, people at the reception don't seem to be much interested in you, but provide the basic service, the rooms are ok for the category, large enough, clean and comfortable. The restaurant is quite average, and was closing relatively early when we were there. The food was just ok, nothing special.

We had a smallish room with Queen Size beds - don't know what you'd do with 4 suitcases.... We were given the disability friendly room, as it had a wet room style shower - water everywhere when you took a shower! Note that the rooms only have tea/coffee making facilities - this is not a motel with kitchenette rooms. The... More

Overnighted here on the way to Melbourne. Got a good cheap deal on Wotif including a continental breakfast pack which was excellent. Free internet and TV with movie channels available. The motel is well located with views on the upper level and only a short walk to shops and restaurants (we ate at The Ferryman's Cafe, it was very good).... More
