We recently ate at the Botanical as part of a group of 6. I ordered the pork, and when it came out it looked bery unappetising. The pork looked grey and was tough and dry, the rice dry, and the bok choy that accompanied it was still full of grit. I think I tried about 3 mouthfuls. To be fair,... More

Stayed in a room against the main street. A bit disconcerting having the rooms windows facing onto regular pedestrian and street traffic (sub metre distance). Generally had the blinds drawn at all times although the room was a little noisy at times. The room was otherwise fine, very simple and clean. Bed was very firm and pillows like rocks and... More

Stayed in a renovated room for a bit extra. Very nice, good rate , quiet and quick walk to main street. Tv and bed great. Botanical garden over the road beautiful for a stroll. Friendly owners. Cant really fault it apart from shower splashes onto tiles

We arrived before noon , made use of our time by first visiting the Botanical gardens which are on the opposite corner from the Motel. These gardens are a pleasure to walk through and would make a good venue for catching up friends in the surrounding areas for a picnic, gathering. Our room was ready , which was clean and... More

The room was not fancy but... More

It looks like... More

Found this via TA and thought this would be a good base to visit the Grampians, as Halls Gap was full because of the food & wine festival. We didn't know yet that the Grampians couldn't be visited due to the january storms which washed all the roads away! Our first impression was not so good, the place looked really... More

Stayed one night, room clean and comfortable. Bit noisy during the evening with lots of children playing in car park fronting rooms. The food in the restuarant was excellent, one of the best steaks I have ever had!!
