"Traveling during Christmas, everything was fully booked. I didn't have high expectations for this place, thinking it would just be an overpriced motel for the holidays, but it far exceeded them! So, I specially came to leave a comment praising this establishment.
I booked a bridge view room, and it seems there's a big difference between room types, so I'm not sure if this review applies to other layouts. The room was very spacious and bright, with magnificent mountain views. The decor was elegant and meticulously arranged, extremely well-maintained, and clearly decorated with great care, absolutely five-star hotel level. All basic amenities were available, and despite being in a small town, it featured a full-sized bathtub with smooth water filling and draining. The owner even left two Melbourne-specialty chocolates for guests, which was a very thoughtful touch.
After staying in a five-star hotel in Melbourne city, I was quite disappointed with Australian hotel standards, but this bridge view room far surpassed my expectations. I'd even say it's on par with the Park Hyatt! (Okay, that might be an exaggeration.) Anyway, I had a very comfortable night here. I recommend everyone choose this place when staying in Apollo Bay, and I'll definitely stay here again if I return!"
