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.

It's a unique hotel experience with a lot of history. Not only you get to stay in clean rooms, there are shared facilities that are nicely kept. There are also some cute cats roaming around, if you're lucky you might get to pat them. The location is close to the city centre.
Offering daily maid service, this motel is located in the centre of Mount Gambier. Free parking for cars, large vehicles and trailers is available.

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 Mount Gambier Hotel has been tastefully renovated with quality inclusions right down to the Aesop products available in the bathroom and the quality assortment of Mandurah tea bags available in the mini bar area.
The bedroom furnishings were beautifully upholstered and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was spacious with twin basins and an excellent shower area.
Our dinner downstairs was also delightful.
All this was available in a central location at a very affordable price.
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.
the room is spacious and very clean. The bed is comfortable for good sleep. Receptionist lady is very friendly and helpful. There is restaurant and bistro in the hotel. The food is good. The hotel has small playground for kids to play as well. The price is very reasonable, highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Mount Gambier. Thank you!
It was not what we were expected at all bathroom was dirty , toilet was disgusting .
Bed was not comfortable.
We should have been told that the hotel is under renovation but even hotel under renovation it shouldn’t affect the cleanliness
Paid so much for that not worth it
The Lakes Resort is a well maintained older motel that I have returned to each time I have been in Mount Gambier.
Rooms are clean and well presented and the location is quiet at night.
We will be happy to return to "The Lakes" when we next visit Mount Gambier.
Check in had a lobby like a hotel.
Rooms were well presented, modern, clean, and spacious
Staff polite and helpful
Pool was large and easily accessible
Great parking
Restaurant on site (we didn't use it)
Short drive to all local sites and amenities.
1. This motel has best location. All tourist spots are nearby.
2. You can Park your car in front of your room and take your luggage easily.
3. Found bed, tables, cupboards, cutlery and other stuff good.
So much better than a pokey motel room for a multi night stay in Mt Gambier, and very reasonable pricing also. Lovely apartment, clean, well appointed and located close to walk trails and CBD.
Stunning artwork in our room and throughout the hotel. Loved the double bathroom vanity with led mirrors.
Staff very friendly and dessert in the restaurant was divine!
Overall our stay was great. The motel has a lot of potential. Very affordable, which is great for larger families.
Easy to find, and the kids loved the bunk bed.
The hotel is in an excellent location, convenient for the town center. It was extremely comfortable and well appointed. We would definitely stay here again.
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.
