Looking for a motel?

Both travelers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help make check-in quick and easy.

    We arrived in the late afternoon and were met by very friendly staff. The room was very comfortable - simple - but everything we needed for our overnight stay. LOVED the fire place in the rear of the restaurant/bar where we shared a bottle of red and some tasty food. Free parking in a nearby street was a bonus. Easy access to the city with a tram literally outside the front door. Great little place today if you prefer a quiet location rather than the businees of the city.

    The staff where so polite, location great, cleanliness was above average for a Melbourne Motel (Myself and partner stayed in quite a few last few months). We asked for a high room and ended up with a room at the top of the building with a lovely view. There was a lovely little welcome pack which was a very nice touch.
