Karri Forest Motel: A Convenient & Charming Base for Pemberton Adventures Karri Forest Motel proved to be an excellent choice for my recent stay in Pemberton. The location couldn't be more perfect, just a stone's throw away from the town center and conveniently close to electric vehicle charging stations, which was a huge plus for me. The on-site restaurant exceeded my expectations with its delicious menu and friendly service. It was a great option for a relaxed meal after a day of exploring the area. The motel itself is set on beautiful grounds, surrounded by lush greenery, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. What I appreciated most was the convenient access to all the activities Pemberton has to offer. The motel is centrally located, making it easy to explore the nearby forests, wineries, and other attractions. Overall, I highly recommend Karri Forest Motel for anyone seeking a comfortable and convenient stay in Pemberton. Whether you're an electric vehicle owner or simply looking for a charming and well-located place to rest your head, this motel ticks all the boxes.

Lovely little spot. Smokers all around us and that was very unpleasant. Our unit smelt like smoke if we left the door or window open when the two gentlemen in the next two units smoked and one of them was quite a chain smoker. Unit 1 had a bad odour on entry but that did dissipate- not sure what it was. I would stay again though cause it’s a lovely little spot with lovely gardens.

The property is off the main road so traffic noise was not an issue. The rooms were clean and roomy, with a balcony overlooking an attractive greened area. We had a meal in the on-site restaurant (Japanese) which was tasty and healthy. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Second time we've stayed here on our visit to Pemberton. Basic but cost effective and all we needed for the kids/family. Beds were comfortable and heaters worked great (although we couldn't figure out why the heating wouldn't go on immediately, but apparently it's like that will the Mitsubishi ones...) - were greeted friendly by the staff and were also able to get a free late checkout.

Clean, functional, good location and value for money. Although the Queen bed was very comfortable, the single bed mattresses were more suitable for a child, not adult weight. We had family staying elsewhere in Pemberton who paid 3 times the cost we paid for run down noisy accommodation. We will return to Karri Forest Motel when next visiting Pemberton. Thank you

I checked in very late, no food as the town and the hotel; shut down at 20:00 .i had been driving for 8 hours only to be mistakingly woken up at 8am. Staff didnt read her work sheet apparently , I think for what you get it’s very overpriced. Value is more like $165 at best, the walls are very thin, and the staff extremely loud in the morning not mindful of the guests at all. Check out is 10:30 but that doesnt mean its party time when you start work at 7am. Would skip and stay somewhere else if I had a choice.

Lovely, quiet and secluded place just a 10 minute stroll from the town of Pemberton. The room was clean and tidy, just needs a little updating with the bathroom and maybe it’s time to move the worn 1990s sofa out and get a newer one. Shower head was broken/cracked squirting water to different places but still worked well enough. Just needs a little TLC
