We had twin beds . Hubby sat on the edge of the bed to tie his shoelaces and the whole bed tipped up and dumped him between the bed and the bedside cabinet . The shower rose just gave one stream of water - like it was coming out of a single hose . On a brighter note it was quiet and close to the town
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.
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.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The mattresses were like foam or jelly. Four tea bags for two nights. For money reasonable
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"
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.
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!
