"Staff were friendly and helpful. The room as nice and spacious with a balcony. We requested for the room to be made up upon check in but had to request again as housekeeping had not been- they were prompt to do so. The construction of the new tower was only a bother in the morning and it was a little frustrating that we were only informed this was happening after booking a non refundable room. Luckily our second night was a public holiday."

Recent Reviews in Geelong Central

Anchor Geelong

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely place, super clean, and had plenty of amenities!"

Ingenia Holidays Torquay

8/10 Good

"The Staff were excellent. Emma the Property Manager was fabulous when I mentioned that we'd had a problem accessing Netflix. A minor problem I know but she was so wonderful in the way she handled our feedback. We highly recommend this Park. The facilities and games for children are second to none. A very safe environment for children to play andcexplore. We will definitely return."

Eden Oak Geelong

8/10 Good

"I really love staying at Eden Oak. It’s a lovely hotel close to the city centre. I love the TV having lots of special channels that I wouldn’t normally get at home. Breakfast is great, however being coeliac I wish they had a seperate toaster for gluten free toast. The room I stayed in needed some attention, multiple items were broken including the toilet roll holder, curtains, bin. split system (still worked, just had a part hanging off it). Some simple fixes and upgrades really would make this place perfect. I will absolutely be back."

Timber Door Luxury Accommodation Geelong

10/10 Excellent

"Really nice. Only thing I could have wished for was clearer communication about when the check in code would be sent. If stated ‘2.5 hours before’ that would have been fine, however the information seemed to suggest that we should contact the property 24 hours before, which was confusing!"

Geelong Holiday Park

10/10 Excellent

"The park was in a great position, a short drive to Geelong foreshore and Belmont shops. Our cabin was very clean and comfortable, the amenities great and the staff lovely. The only downside was the WiFi wasn't working which didn't worry me but perplexed the Grand children 😁 Would definitely stay there again"
