Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
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.

Detailed Reviews
I can only repeat & agree with all the great things mentioned by others. One other thing to add is that guests park their vehicle right outside the door of their room, and that the rooms are on one level. Both factors add to convenience, particularly for older people.
The cleanliness, comfort, supplied equipment, location, all make it value for money with very reasonable rates. All of the staff are so friendly and helpful.

Older style motel in a good location for exploring Victor Harbor and the surrounds.
Parking outside the door was great.
Rooms had toaster and kettle. If you need a microwave you need to go down to the shared breakfast room. There is a washer and dryer also.
Room was clean.
Bathroom is a little small and at times it was hard to get the right temperature in the shower. Nowhere to put your toliteries in the shower you need to use shelf outside. Might be good to put something in the corner part of the shower where there was plenty of room. Sink is located in the main room
Was good for the price and you can't beat the location
Would be handy if there were also a few induction cooktops for use in the breakfast room.

A lot to digest? Read an AI-generated summary of recent traveller reviews.
I travelled with my family (4 kids) and had 2 rooms next to each other. The rooms were so clean, beds so comfortable and shower perfect. The location can’t be beaten in the town centre and still very quiet with easy parking outside the room. We used the washing and drying machine which was a very easy process. David and Karen are great hosts and were very accommodating to all our needs. Highly recommend the motel. Karl and family

Very nice place to stay in Victor Harbor. The room is comfortable and clean. Each room has its own parking spot, and the location is perfect; short walking distance to the beach, cafes and restaurants, and main shopping centre. We had a pleasant stay!
Highly recommended 👌

My partner and I decided last minute to have a weekend getaway with our baby. We picked Victor Harbour City Inn for the price and location.
On arrival I was greeted promptly and kindly. With the room being prepaid it was a quick and easy process to get the key to our room.
The car parks are conveniently right in front of the rooms making it really easy to get luggage into the room. The room, including kitchenette area and bathroom were all clean and tidy everything in working condition.

The location in the centre of town but with good off street parking is excellent. The room was large enough and very comfortable and the heating was very much appreciated. Having the laundry and kitchen available was a great bonus also and the hosts were friendly but unobtrusive.

Like many others, Covid19 caused problems with my holidays. I was so glad that my holiday could still, eventually go ahead. A great thanks to Karen who rebooked my accommodation to a time that was suitable to me, post Covid restrictions.
The locality was perfect for walking the town for shopping and doing the touristy things.
Our room was immaculate and even included a microwave oven.
The small, but welcoming breakfast room was a surprise to me, as it contained everything we needed to help with 'eating in'.
The fact that I could park my car out side of my unit, and felt safe staying there is why I couldn't wait to recommend Victor Harbour City Inn as the ideal place to stay.
Nothing was a problem. From the Owners to the cleaners, all were professional, polite and eager to please.
The weather was great - there was no pressure from work or family, but the fact that we stayed in a clean, fresh, quiet and safe place, made our holiday perfect.
Thankyou.

Stayed here for 3 nights and chose this place given its location and price. We were not disappointed. The location is just perfect. You really don't have to walk more than 500m for anything you'd need. You have cafes, pubs and restaurants all in this proximity as well as the jetty and all its activities offered. The motel itself is certainly great value. The room was clean, good size and very comfortable for us (2 adults and a child). Two Queen beds and still room to sit down on the table and have a takeaway. It is located off the main street and yet very quiet. There was also a shared breakfast room which had extra cutlery, utensils, plates and cooking facilities. I would certainly look to book here again next time we're in Victor.

Victor Harbour Inn is a motel but right in the centre of town.
There is a genuine welcome when one arrives and collects keys. Parking spaces are numbered to your room so one's car is directly outside.
Nobody could call the rooms attractive, just functional, but are well equipped with tv, fridge, tea/coffee making facilities, toaster, knives/forks etc.and work surface. There is a collective kitchen at the end of the block. Just minutes away are restaurants and it is only a short walk to a shopping mall with large supermarket. Also near the seafront and museums etc. If one wants a central location and the aforementioned it is fine.

The family room can sleep 4 adults and 2 children (in porta cots). The staff were very helpful when I rang up and was having trouble with my online booking. Done it over the phone and was just as simple. The room was very neat and well set out. The location was great being right in the middle of town. Everything was easily accessible. Very nice place and would definitely stay there again.
