Great little hotel walking distance from the main street. Plenty of free parking and the staff at the front desk were lovely. Only real issue is a little street noise being on a main road, but that didn't affect my stay. Will be back

Great family motel with a lovely atmosphere. Although situated on a busy intersection, this motel is spacious and relaxing to stay. Our room was right on the corner of their intersection but we really only heard the traffic if it was an emergency vehicle with sirens. Ear plugs for sleeping were also provided in the room however we didn’t need them. The staff were fantastic and welcoming. Food in the restaurant was yummy. Great place to stay. Would happily stay again.

Room was clean and comfortable and we appreciated the cartons of milk in the fridge. We also found the car parking to be good. We were not impressed by the breakfast offering which we chose not to have and we were also unimpressed by the lack of vegetables and salads in the Bistro. You could also include some herbal teas in the bedrooms.

A warm friendly welcome.

Arrived tired after a long day travelling and was met with a warm friendly welcome. The guy kindly carried my case to my room. Room was small but fine for my use. Very clean. Bedding immaculate. Lots of hot water with an excellent shower. Staff were very helpful

Nightcap at Federal Hotel Mt Gambier seemed to be trying hard to be a reasonable accommodation option, but just missed the mark in a few areas. Unfortunately, many of Mt Gambier's hotels have a similar issue. Staff in the hotel are friendly and welcoming, and a positive effort has been made to upgrade the rooms. However, our room, while generally being pretty good for what it is, needed a little more effort from the cleaning staff to make sure all corners were cleaned and opened milk (UHT milk) was replaced. It was a shame that our bathroom developed a terrible aroma with a plumbing issue on Sat night when there weren't options to have it rectified. Would give this accommodation another go as good value for its price and a reasonable option for this price point in Mount Gambier.
