Hotels with Breakfast in Mount Gambier

My wife and I stayed here for just one night to take advantage of some free Vline train vouchers, so, as our host told us,, we were not typical of most travellers arriving at the motel by car. We chose this place because the price was reasonable, previous reviews were good and the location was not far from the Vline coach terminal next to the Visitor Information Centre. Our Queen room was basic but clean, comfortable and well air-conditioned. There were good supplies of cutlery, crockery and snacks, together with a microwave and a toaster. Whilst not serving meals at the motel, our host told us of a cafe nearby. He was charming to chat to and kindly looked after our baggage for us in the free hours between checkout and our coach departure. All up, a very pleasant experience.

We recently stayed at the Presidential Motel and will never stay there again or recommend anyone stay there again. We checked in on Thursday, 24th February 2022 to a lady who was very rude. She advised me as I was booking in that they would be charging me a $200.00 pre-authorisation damages fee that would cover any damages to the room. I asked her why this was the case and she advised that it was standard through booking.com and booking.com charged this on all booking.com bookings. I advised her that I used booking.com on all my bookings and have never been charged a damages fee. She was quite rude and ended up charging me $150.00 after admitting that it was the hotels preference to charge customers a damages fee not booking.com. I want to the room with friends to put my luggage away. 2 cleaners were cleaning the room beside my room. They asked me if I was booking into the room that they were cleaning and advised them that I was booking into Room 48. 1 of the cleaners advised that she would do a check of the room to see if it was ready to be booked. She unlocked the room and went inside to do a check. She advised me that the fridge had to be stocked. I asked her if I could take some blankets as it was cold and she said yes. She showed me the cupboards where the blankets were and I removed 2 blankets from the cupboard that was encased in white bags. These bags were carried out to the boot of my car. The door closed behind me and I thought I had left the swipe card in the room. I asked the cleaner could she unlock the room for me, which she did. The cleaner then went back to the room next door to finish her cleaning. (Approval of using the blankets were witnessed by 4 people that were with me). On Friday, 25th February 2022 I received a missed call from 08 8724 9966 at 12:24 pm. I returned this call and was greeted by a man advising that he was the manager of the Presidential Motel and had been advised by his cleaner that the blankets had not been returned to the room. I advised him that the blankets were still in the car as I grabbed them because my kids were cold. He asked where I was and I told him that I was at the speedway. He spat the dummy stating that they could not be at the speedway and had to be returned to the motel so they wouldn’t get dirty. I told him that they wouldn’t get dirty because we were parked in the pits and the blankets were kept in the car for the kids to use. He said that they would get grease etc on them because we were at the speedway. I again advised him that this wouldn’t be the case because they were in the car. Our kids were racing go karts, which doesn’t have grease etc like the cars would. I told him that I would return the blankets to the room and told him I had to go. I then hung up the phone. On Friday, 25th February 2022 when we returned to the room it was late and I forgot to remove the blankets from the boot (that had still not been used and were still in the white bags). We we

Parking is very convenient, in fact, it is a standard motel, chain type, but it is not coincident that when we came to him during the renovation, the overall equipment is old, the luminosity is not enough, the right to stay overnight. But very close to the supermarket worthwool.

This gem of a hotel is piece of history. According to staff and the photos on the wall, it dates back to 1863,shortly after the town was started (1849). The rooms are recently renovated with the latest fixtures (touch mirrors, tab ceiling lights and electronic door handles), the beds are comfortable, the food is very good, and the atmosphere is great. Rooms have about 15 foot high ceilings. Also, there is a game room on the ground floor and even I was able to win at the slots. I wish we could have stayed longer.

Loved spending the night in a place with history. Lots of information about the goal located around the site. The room as expected was small- it was a goal cell after all. The bed was comfortable- a double so giants beware. Any larger would not fit the room :) The heater warmed the room nicely. The kitchen area was clean and had what we needed. Lots of styles of cells to choose from. Having courtyards the goal would suit a group of friends or family get together. I understand you can hire the full complex. Good walking distance to the city pubs. Parking out the front. Some rooms have shared facilities. Remember, you are booking an experience. I your after luxury then this is not the place for you.

Good location but few other positive things to say about this place. Bed was horrible. Don't think there was a single spring in the mattress & thought it would swallow me whole. Pillows were like massive bricks. Horrible smell that constantly permeated the room. Shower was the absolute worst! Terrible water pressure & would go from scalding hot to freezing cold over & over for no particular reason. Bathroom fan did not work & the toilet would refill with a trickle. Would literally take over half an hour to fill. TV had terrible reception. There was a fridge & Wi-Fi. No hairdryer. I do not recommend this motel.

The Henry is ok if you are looking to just put your head down. The rooms are clean and beds are comfortable. Was reasonably priced but you get what you pay for. Bathroom light flashed like a disco we advised cleaners to report which she did but nobody came to fix it. The globe needed replacing.don’t know why this wasn’t picked up by the pre clean. This was a standard room double bed plus single. Other rooms may be better ? Hot water pressure was good. These rooms are very outdated but as I said you get what you pay for. tv had foxtel which was good. It was just a head down place for us and I’m assuming for most people staying in these type of units. Not much around here walking distance it’s very quiet but a close drive to attractions. We went use restaurant so can’t comment on that. If the light had of been fixed it would have been a decent stay. I don’t understand why these things aren’t attended to.

We stopped over at Mount Gambier on our way from Adelaide to Melbourne and stayed at the Studio Spa Suite at The Commodore. The location was great, and you can easily walk to nearby attractions such as the cave garden. Lots of food options nearby as well. The jacuzzi in the room was spacious and made our short stopover exceptionally relaxing. Would love to visit Mount Gambier and The Commodore again.

This venue was a great place to stop on our trip from Hobart to Adelaide. The recently renovated rooms are clean, comfortable and spacious whilst being well appointed. It was everything we needed. The management and staff were friendly and helpful, even to the point of helping us when we realised that we had a flat battery and making us a cup of tea whilst we waited for the RACT.
