Just returned from 10 days in Tasmainia- accommodation was excellent - and for a lot less that we paid this weekend. For the same price we stayed at the Launceston Country Club -first class facilities!! Our room this weekend is due for a make-over,looking very "tired" You need to take a leaf from Tasmainian accommodation standards and SA tourism will... More

Fantastic & helpful hosts. Great choice of meals at motel restaurant Gluten free and dietary requirements catered for very willingly. Plenty of light & space in rooms. Thanks to Jeff & Lesley for making our first stay in the Barossa so enjoyable. More

Lesley and Jeff are the consumate hosts and again we have been welcomed like old friends. The atmosphere is warm and homely in the lodge, the food prepared by Lesley is heart-warming and belly-filling and much conviviality was to be had perched at the bar whilst enjoying a glass of the local wine. Yay for the free jukebox! The units... More

After a four and half hour drive to Tanunda, we were welcomed by the very friendly staff at Barossa Motor Lodge. This had been recommended to us by friends that had stayed there previously. Managers were very obliging in giving us ideas of what to do and where to go during our stay. Rooms were quite comfortable, bed was great... More

It is what it is - a tired old motel desperately in need of a makeover. There are much better places in the Barossa, and if they had had vacancies I would not have been staying here. The aircon kept me awake all night and the tv was old and restricted to basic channels. And there was no wifi. On... More

The motel is a bit dated but it was okay for the price we paid. It was clean and the people on reception were friendly and helpful. If you're looking for posh accommodation in the Barossa then this isn't it, but if you can put up with dated motels then this is okay. The room was quite large and parking... More

Recently spent a week in Adelaide and surrounds and during that time spent three nights at the Barossa Motor Lodge in Tanunda. Paid more for this accommodation than other places in Adelaide and Glenelg and it was by far the poorest standard. Firstly it is located a number of kilometers from Tanunda and as for walking to wineries you would... More
