An overnight stay on the way to South Coast of NSW. Warm welcome at reception (country style), and spotlessly clean room with eveything! Even fresh real milk, ground coffee and plunger! Kitchenette perfect for a quick "on the road" dinner, and table/chairs in the room to sit and enjoy a meal. Comfortable queen bed, and HD TV. Oh - almost... More

We stay in Bairnsdale once or twice a year and we have found there are 2 motels worthwhile staying at. This is the one we choose first and the reason is simple. It is clean, comfortable, friendly and reasonably priced. The location is ideal for us and getting a free muffin each on arrival was a lovley idea. It is... More

I can highly recommend Best Western Colonial Motor Inn at Bairnsdale Victoria. From the first greeting and free muffin to the excellent meals for both Breakfast and Dinner, free WiFi internet, free newpapers and the always happy management it makes your stay enjoyable and comfortable. No Restaraunt on site but the room service makes up for it. Yes fresh milk... More

This was a large unit with two bedrooms (one Queen), a large living/dining/kitchen area, and bathroom. The unit was probably some years old, but nicely furnished, neat, bright and clean. There were two TVs, and kettle, toaster and microwave in the kitchen along with a sink. The bathroom actually had a bath as well as a shower. The most noticeable... More

Our priority here is guest comfort and we endeavour to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The abundant supply of refreshments is unique to the Best Western Colonial Motor Inn and reflects the level of hospitality we like to extend to our guests. The lighting is an issue, I agree. It is a challenge to find the level of light... More

We wanted to have a spa room for our last night of our holiday and we were given a room that helped us relax. It was well serviced, ready for us to just walk in and be comfortable. The decor made us feel relaxed as well. We would recommend it to everyone.

The service was friendly and they even give you warm muffins and real milk. The room is average but the service and friendliness makes up for it. The breakfast is excellent. I would recommend it for anyone travelling through Bairnsdale

I used to stay at this motel for business for seven years on a regular basis but this ceased two years ago. It was always a good motel to stay at and it was pleasant to see that all in all it was good to return. The motel is well positioned. It is a short walk to the train station,... More

I had business (as I do all over victoria, all year round) in Mallacoota for two nights. To be brief, in my three years of travel in Victoria, it was tortuous (see my review Mallacoota Hotel Motel) I cancelled the second night and gave them a list of all the things which had made it a miserable night. I have... More

Arrived looking for a bit of R & R before tackling the Great Alpine road (which was fantastic). Picked the first Motel that we found and booked a room without an inspection. This was a mistake as the room was riddled with mosquitoes (killed upwards around 2 dozen to avoid getting eaten alive at night). This however was not the... More
