What guests think

At Best Western Olde Maritime Motor Inn, travellers praise the welcoming staff, clean and comfortable rooms, and a central location near Flagstaff Hill, the beach and dining, making it a convenient stop for Warrnambool visits or Great Ocean Road trips.

Many note spacious layouts and refreshed bathrooms, though a few describe smaller or tired rooms, thin walls or upstairs noise, and stairs between levels that may challenge those with mobility needs. The on-site restaurant and bar draw strong praise for breakfast and dinner, with occasional comments about slow service, inconsistent treatment, or the need to reserve. Attentive touches such as late check-out, early access, and help arranging parking stand out. Overall, this is a reliable base for exploring Warrnambool with comfortable lodgings and handy on-site dining.

This wasn’t just your average motel. We were warmly welcomed with the heaters already on in our room. The cosy bar and restaurant with an open fire was so good we ate there the two nights of our stay. Very conveniently located, the room was clean and spacious with a new modern bathroom. We would highly recommend.

We arrived later than expected but Beth on reception was very welcoming. Easy parking. Shame we didn’t have more time to stop another day. The motel is so close to Flagship Hill and I highly recommend a visit there. Sadly we were time limited. I could have spent at least another hour there. Fascinating.

The staff were welcoming and accommodating from the moment we arrived. Each staff member I encountered was genuinely friendly. Raj, the owner, even greeted me by name at breakfast after only one small interaction on check in. We arrived with a trailer and they quickly arranged suitable parking for the night. The room was exactly as pictured. My only note to travellers is the rooms are on three levels which are accessible by stairs. If you have mobility concerns it’s best to contact the hotel to ensure a ground floor room. The onsite restaurant served a great breakfast and was very convenient!

Room was very tired looking (walls and furnishings). Top sheet on the bed didn't look clean. Didn't really feel comfortable in this room. It felt like a budget room but yet it was over $200p.n. Overpriced for what you got.

We had one night at this property while on a long roadtrip, the reception staff were very friendly and efficient. Our room was clean and comfortable but looking a little tired in places (especially the carpets). The evening meal in the lovely restaurant area was excellent, friendly, cheerful staff and really good food! The bar area has comfortably chesterfield settees and a roaring fire which was really warm and cosie for an after dinner drink. We had a really good breakfast the next morning which set us up for the day. Would definitely recommend staying at this friendly hotel!

My wife and I decided to stop here for a night while driving the Great Ocean Road and couldn’t be happier about our decision! The room was great, you can tell they put a lot of thought into the room updates they’ve done - it was very cozy, clean, and comfortable with thoughtful touches like the usb outlets next to the bed. The staff were amazing. We got a late start so we called ahead to let them know we might be getting in close to 9pm. Since it was winter they went ahead and turned the heaters on in the room, which are also nice new heat pumps and work great, so it was toasty as soon as we walked in. The town itself is really nice, and especially in the off season away from the crowds of tourists. We would love to stay here again someday.

This was a short sight seeing trip for my wife and I.The accommodation was very clean, comfortable and quiet traffic wise .The service was excellent, the proprietor very friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was nice and big, the room had a separate little eating area with a table and chairs as well as a toaster and tea and coffee making facilities. It had a charming old world feel with 2 fireplaces and mantles which unfortunately were unable to be used, but for safety reasons, was understandable. There was also free on site parking. The only complaint we had was that we were on the first floor and there was a floor above us which must have contained family suites or rooms as there was one night where there was lots of very loud footsteps and lots of loud bangs which were very annoying and disturbed our sleep at night and VERY early in the morning. But I realise this can be a problem with multi -storey buildings and sometimes neighboring rooms in many accommodation premises. The motel is well situated with it being a very short walk from the Maritime Village, the RSL and the beachfront. We would recommend this motel and would be more than happy to stay here again.

The room was very nice and clean. There was no soap for the shower as it was attached to the wall next to the sink. The dining in was very convenient but a little expensive and we had a very long wait due to only one chef being on duty. However saying all that, the staff were super friendly and fun. The accommodation was clean and very quiet at night. Great location to access the beach and the rock coves down at stingray Bay... Overall highly recommended...
