“Disappointing”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 April 2013

Quiet, clean and relatively comfortable but it lacked any amenities (restaurant closed for extended season, no where to sit and enjoy sun, not even a tissue in your room!). Very well located but for the price you will find much better accommodation in Robe. Small improvements and upgrades could make this place much kinder to guests, eg a light at... More

It is always disappointing to receive a bad review but in this instance I am a little perplexed. Whilst we are a clean and comfortable 3 star motel and undergoing an upgrade we do have outdoor seating at each room, an 8 seater outdoor setting and BBQ next to reception as well as seating in our pool and spa area,...

“Good location, friendly management”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 April 2013

Just got back from a 3 night stay at Guichen Bay motel. The management were very friendly. I received a number of phone calls before my wife's and my arrival to confirm arrival. Even though this stay was part of the former owner's participation in Sunseeker Holidays, David and his wife phoned to inform me I was entitled to more... More

It is great to receive positive feedback. We treat people the way we would wish to be treated ourselved. It is simple to say but at times difficult to maintain but it is always easy when you are dealing with nice people. Hope to see them again. More

“Perfect location in Robe”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 March 2013

We stayed here for the Adelaide Cup long weeked and felt welcomed by the new manager David and his wife (the "birthday girl") from the time we opened the reception door to the time we checked out. This is an old motel, with the stone Harbour Master's building out front built in 1860, but tucked around the back are the... More

“Central motel, nicely cleaned but run down”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2013

We stayed one night in the two bedroom family unit. The room was slightly unusual in that the bathroom was located in the second room, so we had to sneak past our sleeping daughter to go to the bathroom at night. Like other reviewers, we found the room, bathroom and furnishings to be dated and run down. However, new management... More

“Great for a short break”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 January 2013

We planned to stay the night at the Guichen Bay Motel and ended up staying for 3. The place has recently changed hands and the freindly new owners are doing a good job reinventing the place. The motel is still a bit dated but quite comfortable with new AC units, TV's with Austar, pool & jacuzzi. The room was clean... More

“You get what you pay for”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 January 2013 via mobile

The female owner of the property is lovely. More than helpful. Rooms were outdated, beds very comfortable but pillows were rock hard. Pool & restaurant was closed when we stayed - would have been nice if these features weren't advertised as we probably wouldn't have stayed knowing this. All in all, probably wouldn't stay there more than the 1 night

Change of management took effect 17/12/12 and we have given the motel a spring clean, put in air conditioning and flat screen TVs as well as establishing free wireless Internet to the rooms. Unfortunately we were left with a pool in a terrible condition and no chef for our onsite restaurant with little chance of securing a trade’s person so... More
