★★★★ 8.6 (37 reviews)

"Beautiful hotel Friendly reception staff Room beautifully presented I was surprised to find I had a turn down service Just two small thoughts The first I went to the bar for a drink before I went in for the night The lady who took me to a seat was lovely she said she’d be back to take an order from a very limited cocktail menu I sat and sat and sat with no one coming back I went to the bar to ask if I could order something only to be snapped at by the girl behind the bar who said I needed to wait until the order was taken I must say except for me there was only 1 other table with a celebration happening So it was quiet I walked out and went to the pub across the street and was enjoying my dark and stormy within two min from a lovely girl there I’m not sure if this bar/ restaurant is part of the hotel or someone renting the space but the bar staff need an attitude check I could see if she was busy no not even then I’ve been in client service my whole life I would not have spoken to a client rudely The other very small thing is the room needs bigger cups not the micro ones The young girl in the cafe in the morning was lovely"

Mt Duneed Estate ★★★★
"We spent two nights in one of the on-site pods. Very comfortable and well appointed, looking out to the olive grove. The cheese platter, wine and breakfast was a great addition. Would highly recommend."

Admiralty Inn ★★★
"I've stayed at the Admiralty Inn a number of times in the past and usually the stay has been good. On a previous stay earlier in the year, and as I was packing to leave, there was a knock on the door saying 'Housekeeping'. The time was 9.40am (checkout is at 10am) and I just felt I was being pushed to leave. I let it slide at the time as i wasn't far off packed and ready to leave anyhow. However, on my most recent stay in May it was taken to a whole new level. Having in mind my previous experience, I decided to place the 'Do not disturb' sign on the door. My thinking being that this should mean that I wouldn't be disturbed until the 10am checkout. At 8.09am, yes I checked the time, the door to my room opened, no knock no warning, and the housekeeper is poking their head in the door. Whilst I was awake I was still in bed though, but what if I had just jumped out of the shower and no clothes on? The housekeeper did make a hasty retreat saying sorry but I just feel that's not good enough, especially as I had the 'Do not disturb' sign on the door and almost two hours prior to checkout. It makes me wonder if any one else has had a similar experience. When you book a motel room you do expect a reasonable level of privacy but I am now very hesitant to stay at the Admiralty Inn again as I feel I cannot be guaranteed any privacy at all. In saying all this, I was tempted to leave a poor or bad review, but I settled on average as the room itself was adequate for the price. All things considered I think my rating of average is more than fair."

Crowne Plaza Geelong by IHG ★★★★
"Great location by the sea. Plenty of restaurants nearby. Staff is a bit undertrained. Called in the morning to push for checkout when I already extended my stay the night before. Housekeeping didnt service my room until I asked them to as they saw the do not disturb sign in the morning but avoided checking the housekeeping sign later in the early afternoon. Chromecast on the TV does not work and the lights automatically switch off if there’s no movement in the room."

Novotel Geelong, an Accor Hotel ★★★★
"Very nice hotel. Excellent location on the waterfront close to the waterfront activities. We had a balcony which gave a view of the sea. Room was comfortable and clean. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Big shopping centre close by. On site Tempo restaurant was very nice - great atmosphere and good food. Just beware of the portion sizes - really big!"

Holiday Inn & Suites GEELONG by IHG ★★★★
"Room is Huge, location a bit walking distance to the docks and shopping area. It's a shame lots of shops closed down it's like an empty city, not many restaurant surviving I guess, but again everything is walkable and the shopping centre is quite big especially for Westfield and coles"
