The entire motel is disgusting. Building in dreadful need of repair, gardens overgrown, room was well below standard, dripping toilet, air con not working, furniture badly knocked around. In fact as a single older woman I didn’t even stay there as I didn’t feel safe and the room was way below standard. I will be applying for a refund.

The accessible bathroom was an excellent thing as we were roadtripping with our 90 year old mother who has a few mobility issues. The exterior looked a little tired but hid a real gem with excellent hosts who were very helpful and made us feel at home.

I am going to be honest, I didn’t know anything about Clunes before I stayed there. It was an overnight stop because I couldn’t get accommodation in Ballarat. Clunes is a lovely little village in a valley. Lots of history, which I would love to come back and explore. Easy drive to Ballarat. The Clunes Motel is an older-style motor-inn, so if you are after Hyatt-like facilities it is not your place. What I like about older-fashioned accommodation options is the generous facilities, including microwave, kettle and toaster in the room, a decent sized refrigerator, enough crockery, cutlery and glassware so you didn’t have to bother reception. It is winter. The room had heating on when we arrived and there were extra blankets and pillows as well as electric blankets on the beds. This stay may have been unintentional, but I will definitely be back and I will book in at this motel and check out the Bottle Museum while I am there. Friendly service too!

The room we booked a month & half ago was given to others, not informed of this till arrival, as we always had this room, staff should be aware of events being held in town & let people know that no food available in town at all Monday or Tues evenings" upsetting & disappointing"
Response from Jerry on 20 Jan 2023
Hi Giro. I am sorry this time it was not a good stay for you,you have stayed with us over 5 years. because the family room has a queen bed and a single bed, and the twin single room only has two single beds. We wanted to upgrade you and made you happy, but we did not know that you only like the twin single room. really sorry. Next time I will tell Kate keep the twin single room for you. As for the Food, Next time we will tell you in advance. this month is still in Holiday, country town people are still in holiday, so they wont open in quiet days. But we should let you know. sorry

Clise to a very unique historical town. Friendly staff and down to earth manner. The motel is old but comfortable as are the beds. Bathroom clean and good sized tv and wifi. If you are expecting the Tagmahal then go to India, but if you want old fashion country service this is it. We checked in late and the owners rang the local oub to keep the kitchen open. Now thats service.

I highly not recommend this place until unless ur helpless. The bed is full of hair and the whole room smells terribly horrible and the furniture is full of dirt. The room 9 has no proper lock and at last the shower pressure is as low that we needs to take a one hr of shower.

A very comfortable stay.
Friendly check in lady. A motel set in a nice garden setting. Not the flashest, but has everything you need. The queen bed room we had has a very comfortable bed. Big TV, fridge, microwave and usual tea / coffee facilities. A few cobwebs here and there but clean. Big bathroom with large shower. Good value at the price point.
