The location was good and the staff were friendly. The dinner discount and free drinks were appreciated. I liked the cockatoo pictures in the bedroom and the bathroom is spacious.
Enjoy a unique accommodation experience when you stay at The Old Mount Gambier Gaol.

Beautiful location. Lovely gardens surrounding the property. Not far from Mt Gambier. The meal we had in the restaurant was excellent. Best steak I have had for a long time! The staff very friendly and efficient!

Fantastic atmosphere, the best motel I've stayed at in the mount. And the only one I'll book from now on. Location was good for my needs, a short walk to the south eastern pub for drinks and dinner. Very quiet motel

Larger country town with great facilities and many sightseeing options. Close to one Australia's great wine regions. Many accommodation choices available to suit all budgets. And of course it has the Blue Lake.

Such a pretty town with so many lovely houses and building. Lovely history to the place. Great vibe in the town centre with cafes and pubs and community. Lots to see and do with all the sinkholes, lakes and proximity to Coonawarra and Port MacDonell beaches

For a big town it lacked a choice of restaurants, we arrived quite late as travelling and nothing was open in town. Actually felt like a ghost town.
Good place to stop if travelling ocean road but only need one night there!
The Barns where we stayed had a good restaurant that was still open but is 20 min drive from town centre.

Beautiful historic town with famous landmarks, such as the volcanic crater lake (Blue Lake) and the Umpherston Sinkhole and sunken gardens. Very walkable town with lots of boutique shops, restaurants and coffee houses.

Much to see and do within a 100km radius of the city.
Much to see and do within a 100km radius of the city. It is a pity the the Princess Margaret Rose Cave is currently shut and there is no indication about a reopening date. The expected date (End of 2023) is now history. Direction signs should carry this information. Naracoorte Caves excellent. Get directions to "Hells Hole" and go for a short walk, Be amazed! Visitor centre is very helpful. If you are reasonably fit climb Mt Schank and walk the rim of an dormant volcano.

Despite the amazing natural attractions (especially the Blue Lake which is resplendent at this time of year), Mount Gambier seems to be revelling in past glories and much of the tourist infrastructure appears dated and run-down. Even the 'attractions' sign as you drive into town is peeling and faded...
I was surprised that it was possible to get a hotel room anywhere in Australia for less than $100. The beds were relatively new as was the fridge, toaster, kettle, aircon, tv and blinds. Some cutlery and crockery was provided which was handy. Original bathroom but a good layout with ample counter space and good hot water. The room and bedding was clean. Only issue was probably the lack of a fan/ventilation in the bathroom, which meant some mould on the walls. Some of the furniture was old and worn, but still practical.
The newly renovated room was exquisite! The tall ceilings, huge luxurious room and bathroom, super comfortable bed and other nice touches makes this the perfect stay. There was hardly any noise at all during the night, even though it was a Friday night when we there. Check in at the pub area was easy and fast (we arrived around 4pm before the dinner rush). In short, my stay at Mount Gambier Hotel was a five star experience for three/four star price. Highly recommended!
Room was spacious, clean and comfortable, in particular the bed. Menu, not too many choices but covered most requirements, food was good, maybe a little on the expensive side. The most impressive part of my stay was the no fuss check in and check out. Not like most motels that want every possible detail, simple checkout with the offer to email the receipt.
Clean, modern room that was well equipped. Central location on the highway that was convenient for us visiting family in the area. Double glazed window really helped dull the traffic noise. Very cozy temperature. We have stayed at many motels in Mt Gambier when we visit my Dad here and this is the best that we will definitely book again.
The motel did not offer a full breakfast so I went to the hotel on the corner and got a great breakfast with good coffee for under $20. The owner was very friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable and the room had a microwave. The location could not be better for someone wanting a central position.
Great value. The location of the motel is in the centre of Mount Gambier. The receptionist assist my mother to move her car while the carpark is full. Great service. The motel is only 5 minutes away from the Blue Lake. Great Stay.
The 3 bedroom apartment room interior was very stylish and spacious. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom had all the amenities you need for your stay. The hotel was close to shops and cafes.
Nice motel room. Lovely view of the city from the hotel and nice restaurant attached that was open till 10 which is great as we arrived late in bad weather. Didn’t get a chance to try the pool.
The motel was easy to find, surrounded by a strip of motels on the main road. The rooms were clean, but although I booked a Superior Room, it was only marginally better than the Budget room.
Spacious room in executive suite. Bed is better than some other hotels I have been. Toilet has locks which is must for a family with kids. Our kids loved the balcony.
The room was huge, a lovely big old country hotel and we were very comfortable. Breakfast was adequate and they catered for my gluten free request. Thank you.
Easy walk to main commercial area.
Enjoyed dinner at the hotel.
Excellent value for money.
We went to a nearby excellent cafe Presto for a fab breakfast.
