Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We did a last minute booking and Helen was very accommodating.Easy to check in and it’s in a quiet spot close to our fav Bakery! She checked us into a room with a king size bed and a single one and the room was super clean, super comfy beds and a snack bar. The bathrooms were clean too! Thank you so much

The Bridgewater Motel was fancy in all the ways you need it to be: well heated and cooled, crisp bedsheets, a good minbar and kitchenette and all the necessary facilities. Great vibe. The surrounding area, including the Loddon river is beautiful.

I booked this motel room for my elderly Mum because we had a family event nearby. She needed accessibility options eg a seat in the shower, the staff provided all these additional things with no fuss in a friendly and professional way. They were very helpful and accommodating, the room was clean and bright, and Mum loved it so much she will definitely be staying again.

Stayed in King room.. Lovely room and plenty of towels which is never heard of, I had actually bought extra towels from home but not needed so happy. Loved they had hot chocolate for the coffee machine def plus. Hubby loved the touch lamps. Loved the location as a walk to river and pub for dinner. Loved they had real shampoo and conditioner instead of the little silly ones you normally get. if we ever get up that way again will def stay again 10/10

Do not expect a fancy motel and this one is old but renovated and provided a very clean comfortable place to stay overnight.Normally a place like this one could not rate more than average but the smart decor and cleanliness lifted it. It was self-serve which was fine and well located over the river from the Bridgewatr pub. Pricing was a little too high and this reflected in very few others on the night stayed.Overall a good stop off point on the Calder Highway morth of Bendigo.

Thank you for your feedback! A lot of thought went into the renovations/upgrades to keep the old charm but bring a clean modern touch to the motel rooms. I believe we achieved this through the renovations and upgrades we implemented. .Thank you for confirming this in your review. Actually, we are normally quite full but due to the pandemic, it has been a little slower. Appreciate your 4-star rating and hope we have the pleasure of hosting you again soon. Jeanette BWM

Room was clean, small but comfortable. Staff helpful . Problem was no sleep. The adjacent road is a thoroughfare for mostly trucks with road noise, downshifting gears and air breaks throughout night. At best 2hours sleep not ideal given we have a 6hr drive

Thank you so much for your feedback. We really appreciate it. After covid and the flood we have learnt t to be appreciative. We do know there is a road here and feel thankful every day that there are trucks busses tractors and live humans out there after the deathly silence of covid roads. We do try to do all we can with our little space and have updated window treatments and other things. With much gratitude we look to the highway as a show of life. We look to being rated on what we do and while we feel its unfair to be rated for something that is not us it is with Gratitude we start a new day. Helen

What a little gem! Stayed here last Saturday night and being a little motel in country Vic, wasn't expecting much. Wrong! I've stayed in lots of motels, Canada, the States and here, but value for money, Bridgie wins! Check in is a touch pad and check out? Drop your key in the box and you're gone. Immaculately clean room with all the necessities and some surprising extras. Will be staying again for sure. Did I mention it was clean? Awesome job guys!
