“Newly refurbished room with a lovely outlook”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 March 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We had a lower floor room that had jut been refurbished - it still smelt of paint and new carpets - but opening the windows helped. Outlook was nice - lots of trees. Close to the main street. Comfy bed and very quiet. Reasonable value for a small country town motel. Probably the best choice but much dearer than the Club Motel opposite the Bowling Club.
Have written a seperate review for the Elms restaurant which was ridiculously over priced :(

Hi MickiAustralia,

Thank you for review of our Motel and Restaurant. It is a real shame that you did not enjoy our Elms Restaurant experience. We have a wide variety of meals ranging at many different prices included a chef's special starting at $18.50 which is available every night. We have taken your opinion into consideration and we are now implementing new changes to our menu to suit a more budget orientated customer.

We are thrilled that you had an enjoyable stay in the newly renovated rooms and hope that you will return to find some changes being made for the better.

Thank you,
Robyn and Chris Jones

“Good value in convenient location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 August 2010

person found this review helpful

Stayed one night between Sydney & Melbourne. Adequate facilities and no serious shortcomings so would definitely recommend for the price. Excellent design on one floor with car space outside every room, although gravel surface means vehicle noise can be a bitr intrusive late at night. If you want to eat at Elms restaurant check first as it's closed some nights.

Hello DrData70,

Thank you very much for your input about our motel and restaurant on tripadvisor.

We are very glad that you had a great stay here in Tumbarumba. After your review of the restaurant we have evaluated our opening times and have a very experienced apprentice who loves to cook, so we are now open everyday except on a Sunday night. We have also opened up on most public holidays but it is always a good idea to book a table.

We thank you very much for your review on tripadvior and are looking forward to seeing you again.

Thank you
Robyn and Chris Jones

“Great stopover”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 July 2010

people found this review helpful

We stayed here for 1 night on our way back to Sydney from a camping trip in the Snowy Mountains. Room very clean and plesant. Bathroom a little disapointing as we were hoping for a 'soak' after camping but instead was just shower with not a lot of pressure. Would however recommend and stay again. Good inroom breakfast. Friendly staff.

Hi Apple5273,

We would like to thank you for your review of the Tumbarumba Motel on tripadvisor.

We are sorry that you couldnt have a soak in the tub after your camping trip, however, we are not sure if your aware that we have spa rooms available at the motel. We are glad to hear that you believed our staff were friendly, it is always great to hear they are doing a good job. We are very fortunate to have the staff we do! Looking forward to seeing you the next time you need a break from camping :-)

“Good standard country motel with friendly staff and excellent restaurant”

This is the third time that a Porsche Club of Victoria tour has stayed at this motel and we have always been well looked after. On this occasion we had 22 cars. The rooms are large, well maintained and have air con as well as ceiling fans. The staff service is unfailingly cheerful and efficient and The Elms restaurant is of an unusually good standard for a country motel. It is in a very quiet location with secure car parking. The motel is also very well placed for exploring the High Country.

What a perfect weekend away. Great position added to the experience. Elms restaurant was sensational, not what we were expecting, mid-priced, excellent food, wine selection and service. Comfortable room, bed and great service from the staff. We will be back and recommending you to our colleagues. Thankyou for making our stay a home away from home.
