Orbost Motel

The hotel in orbost town on the side of A1 road is a little rustic. The location is not easy to find, mainly because the sign at the entrance of the hotel is placed in the bushes, so people can't find it. The service is good. I am worried that we will arrive late, so I have opened the room to ventilate. You can eat in the town across the road, with Chinese food and fast food, and you can buy supermarkets. Stay here overnight and fill up with gasoline tomorrow morning, because there are gas stations and hot food for sale about two hours' drive to NSW.

標準的汽車旅館，開門見床，乾淨整潔，房間保暖性不錯，服務態度熱情，但是不能做飯

This motel is just out of town, on the main road but you would never know by the lack of noise. It’s an old motel that has been renovated and updated to a very good standard. Though reception was closed, the key was left in our room and the door was open. Contact was just a phone call. The room was not huge but it was very comfortable with tv, fridge, microwave, toaster and coffee machine. There was enough crockery for 2 and items in the fridge for purchase. Nothing to be able to wash the crockery though there’s a T towel. The room isn’t serviced daily but that’s quite common now. The bathroom was a good size and the shower had good water pressure. The door lock is entertaining, very European. The king bed was comfortable though if you are a little shorter than me you may need a boost to get up on it. Where as the tub chairs are suitable for those close to the ground. Parking is in front of the unit. The sign for the motel at present is somewhat hidden behind a yucca so we were lucky the road is quiet. We would stay again for sure.

What a wonderful find this was! Absolutely lovely place to stop. Very clean, excellent beds, relaxing decor and wonderful staff. If you are ever on a road trip travelling through Orbost or even on business the you won’t find a better place to stay! We had two rooms and both were excellent. Nice little touches like fresh milk in the fridge and the bedside table light switches cable tied to the stem making it easier to find. How many times have you fumbled to turn the bedside light on and of so little details like this make all the difference. Our only regret is we only stayed for one night, we should have stayed longer.

Pros 1. One of the better and more updated options for a halfway trip between Melbourne and our destination (Tomakin) when wanting to go the coastal route rather than inland 2. Easy parking in front on unit 3. Simple check in process Cons 1. No proper lighting, only lamps. This was particularly frustrating in the bathroom, there is no light in the shower and with dark green tiles it’s hard to see if it’s clean. In the morning, we found spider webs and a spider above the shower head. Doubt they got there overnight 2. We had an extremely loud insect in our room which we couldn’t find. Sounded like a cicada. Kept us up all night from 1am until 7am when there was natural light. Not ideal way to start a holiday and even more so when you have to drive/travel the next day.

Great Motel- beautiful inside, comfy beds, detailed re quality items in kitchenette, large flat screen tv, great shower, reverse aircon, fridge/freezer, Nespresso and quiet and highly recommend. Off the highway, great parking, hear the cows in the morning, don’t miss this little gem.

A lovely motel. Very clean with comfy beds and appears to have been renovated recently and it looks great. The owner/manager was very friendly and helpful. Although situated near the main road it’s very quiet.

Wow what a great place to stay, room was so lovely and super clean, the bed so comfortable, full size fridge, coffee machine, large bathroom with a lovely spa bath which was so relaxing after along drive, and we were greeted by the most lovely staff giving us recommendations for dinner which was lovley too.. would stay again it was a great overall experience

What a gem of a place! Quiet, up to date and modern you cant go past the Orbost Motel. It was our first time there and we were not disappointed with any of the services provided. All was great and we used the place to explore the surrounds. After a long day it was a pleasure returning to some comfort and style. We highly recommend the Orbost Motel.
