What guests think
At Eden Oak Geelong, travellers highlight the tranquil parkland setting, renovated interiors and inclusive breakfast, alongside caveats about small rooms, patchy soundproofing, many stairs without lifts, and occasional difficulties finding rooms at night due to limited signage and lighting.
The pool and outdoor spa, airy common areas and on‑site Thai restaurant earn frequent praise, though some mention dated exteriors, intermittent closures or limited menus, and occasional pool cleanliness issues. Rooms are generally clean, comfortable and recently refreshed, but often compact with low lighting or awkward shower layouts, and some report sporadic Wi‑Fi drops. Staff are widely described as friendly and accommodating, with a few reports of rudeness or slow responses. Expect a peaceful, value‑focused stay best suited to guests with a car.

Eden Oaks sits in the middle of Geelong botanical gardens. It is not easy to walk to and from at night. The property is large as it has conference rooms so is a little spread out. It is a little dated but that wasnt an issue for me. The on site restaurant was excellent and the full breakfast as part of the price was lovely . All in all we had a nice stay.

Note this property is cashless. Laundry facilities are coin operated hence not cashless. Travellers who wish to use these facilities should have $1 coins with you as reception and bar area cannot exchange physical money. Suggestion for this hotel is to have laundry converted to cashless system. Refrigerator not running when we arrived after a long drive. We figured it out and had to pull it out and turn on. No biggy but frustrated. Positive is comfy beds, pillows and complimentary breakfast was a bonus. Lots of variety.

The restaurant and breakfast options were fantastic. So much variety at breakfast. The pool and Spa looked great, and there was a pool table to use as well. The suite has 2 rooms, comfortable beds, kitchen and lounge room. Even a balcony to a grassed area, overlooking a golf course. Everything was just perfect, we will be back!

Beautiful stay here! Will definitely be back. Enjoyed the area inside & out. The facilities like pool table, bar, restaurant, room service, complementary breakfast & outdoor pool + garden surrounds with nearby cafes was perfect! Great getaway for us & perfect for short & long stays. We stayed 2 nights but could easily do a week here if thats what you're looking for.

Room had a terrible smell. Smelt like an off dead animal. Complained within 5 minutes of being there as it was unbearable. The hotel knew about it, blaming the previous tenants with their cooking fish with fish oil in the room. They even admitted to not airing out the room as there was no fly wire on the door to the outside deck. Gave no compensation

Extremely poor sound isolation. Could hear our neighbours all evening speaking quietly. Felt like we were sharing a hotel room with strangers. Room was clean, and nice. Common area by reception also nice. Common area by our «section» was horrid and smelt damp and moldy. Thankfully the smell didn’t carry into the room.

We really liked Eden Oak on the whole, especially the lovely breakfast, but there were just a bunch of small things wrong with/in our room that added up to be an unfortunate coincidence of issues: 1) The shower head was broken so we had to tie it up with a face cloth to have showers, otherwise it fell down. 2) The window wouldn't shut all the way so a breeze was constant through the room which pushed the blinds off the track. Also, the fly screen was broken which wouldn't have been an issue if the window could shut all the way. 3) The TV signal was poor, so it was breaking up and pixilated on most channels 4) There was a fresh stain on the bedspread when we unfolded it, so I assume it hadn't been washed after the previous guests 5) The drain in the bathroom sink was blocked so the basin filled up easily and took some time to drain when left. 6) The foot pedal for the bin was broken. 7) There was rubbish (empty beer cans) outside our window in the garden strip, that probably couldn't be seen from the path, but can be seen from the room. None of these things are a big deal on their own, but because there were so many little things, it just seemed an unfortunate coincidence for us that all of things little issues were present all at once in the one room. I would still recommend the hotel and would still stay here again, because there were a lot of positives, but I still think it's worth giving this feedback so they can improve for future guests.

⭐ 1 Star – Disappointing Experience Unfortunately, my stay at this hotel was far below expectations. The cleanliness standards were noticeably poor, and the breakfast selection was disappointing — the food tasted as though it had been sitting out for quite some time, and the coffee from the machine resembled little more than lukewarm, dirty water. Upon arrival, the reception experience was unwelcoming. When I requested a room change due to the bathroom type not being suitable, the response I received was unnecessarily unpleasant and dismissive, with the staff member asking, “Have you used it?” The heating system also took approximately 30 minutes to begin working, which was inconvenient. The only positive aspect was the quality of the bathroom toiletries, which were pleasantly scented and generously sized. However, the overall condition of the hotel left much to be desired — even the reception washroom remained in the same unclean state from check-in to checkout. Regrettably, I would not recommend this hotel based on my experience.

Was a really nice stay, it's super close to the centre of the city but you can't hear any cars or anything and are surrounded by bush. Also super close to the water. The room was super clean and well kept, freshly renovated I think, but the only problem was the shower has the bath tap directly underneath it so you had to stand super weird, and it wasn't super high, I'm 6ft2 and my head was just hitting it

The hotel appears quite new and is very modern. Rooms are very nice if a little small. Bathroom is very modern but poor lighting. Nice little swimming pool for children. Pillows were terrible, so thin. No instructions for the technology in the room with the lighting, tv system and blinds, very confusing. It is very difficult to find at night time as the area being a park is very dark with no lighting.

Four days have passed with no reply from Eden Oak to my email identifying my poor experience. I see other guests have identified the same issue as me, yet Eden Oak continues a practise that guarantees their guests will have a terrible night stay. Here's the email I sent: My partner and I stayed Saturday night at your beautiful hotel. We enjoyed everything about it - except trying to sleep. We were in Room 202 which connects directly with an internal door to 205. Unfortunately for us, the person or couple in 205 were talking loud and late and I had to call the office number at 2am to come and give them a noise warning. They immediately quietened and I was able to sleep. They weren’t partying, just talking loudly which just should not have been an issue. These rooms should not be available to book independently - the internal doorway means that there is no soundproofing at all. I discussed this on departure and the kind front of house recommended raising this via email. I’d appreciate a goodwill refund or credit.

Eden Oak Geelong A big Thank You to the staff for your caring support. We originally booked two nights to recover from jet lag and do some sight-seeing, but eating some bad food the morning we arrived changed that plan. You were able to extend our stay a day at a time, gave a good referral to a clinic, and otherwise made us as comfortable as possible. Our room was nice and comfortable and the common areas are architecturally beautiful with a lovely pool area and surroundings. The location is in a park adjacent to the 4th oldest botanic garden in Australia. Beautiful. Shopping is walkable, but maybe better to drive there if you’re carrying groceries. Breakfast buffet is included. It’s a good one, with eggs, meat, hash browns, baked beans, pancakes, lots of breads, and fruit. Dinner is generally by menu, but sometimes by buffet if a group is being hosted. Overall our stay here is a good memory. We have stayed in hundreds of hotels and this is one of the nicest accommodations in this price range. We got lucky with this gem in the park!

Have stayed many times over the years when it was The Salvation Army's conference centre. Loved the transformation. I have special dietary needs and the breakfast options really worked for me. Will not hesitate to book future stays. Staff very helpful in organising an early arrival due to me attending a wedding that day. Thank you.

Location
Eden Oak Geelong sits in quiet parklands beside the Botanic Gardens and golf course, close to the bay and a short drive to central Geelong. Several guests found it tricky to navigate or walk at night due to limited signage and lighting, so a car helps.

Eden Oaks sits in the middle of Geelong botanical gardens. It is not easy to walk to and from at night. The property is large as it has conference rooms so is a little spread out. It is a little dated but that wasnt an issue for me. The on site restaurant was excellent and the full breakfast as part of the price was lovely . All in all we had a nice stay.

We liked its location within Eastern Park. We liked the breakfast layout. As first timers we found the lack of signs on the road in confusing.

Loved staying here, but as I checked in after hours, I would have appreciated a map of the place. Took me a long time to find my room, and on crutches that was not fun.

Eden Oak Geelong A big Thank You to the staff for your caring support. We originally booked two nights to recover from jet lag and do some sight-seeing, but eating some bad food the morning we arrived changed that plan. You were able to extend our stay a day at a time, gave a good referral to a clinic, and otherwise made us as comfortable as possible. Our room was nice and comfortable and the common areas are architecturally beautiful with a lovely pool area and surroundings. The location is in a park adjacent to the 4th oldest botanic garden in Australia. Beautiful. Shopping is walkable, but maybe better to drive there if you’re carrying groceries. Breakfast buffet is included. It’s a good one, with eggs, meat, hash browns, baked beans, pancakes, lots of breads, and fruit. Dinner is generally by menu, but sometimes by buffet if a group is being hosted. Overall our stay here is a good memory. We have stayed in hundreds of hotels and this is one of the nicest accommodations in this price range. We got lucky with this gem in the park!

If I had not found this property on the internet, I would never have known it was there. Tucked away between a golf course and the Botanical gardens it was a great find for me as often I find outdoor noise can prevent me from sleeping, but this property was a blessing to find. It was a little bit of a rabbit warren to find my room and to get to a fantastic breakfast, but it was worth it. Next time I return to Geelong, I will be staying here again.

Breakfast has been downgraded. We have been here 4 times and breakfast was excellent always. This time there were hardly any options and even the quantity of breakfast was very limited. One of the reasons for staying at eden oak was its breakfast. So we were very disappointed with the breakfast quality and quantity both.

This is our regular getaway go to and have been numerous times over the past four years. Staff were lovely and accomodating. Super comfy bed! Shower is our favourite! Streaming services available. Room was a lot cleaner than what we had with previous owners. Quiet, safe and family friendly. Beautiful location. The only downfall was breakfast. Definitely not what it used to be at all. Minimal options and all hot food was cold (and tasteless) already early into breakfast hours. Last visit we went the last hour of service where there was hardly anything left. This time we went earlier and again another disappointment. Minus the breakfast, it was a great stay as always!

It's in a very quite and nice location in the middle of a very large garden area close to the city. Breakfast which was included was surprisingly good - although the coffee leaves a little to be desired.

⭐ 1 Star – Disappointing Experience Unfortunately, my stay at this hotel was far below expectations. The cleanliness standards were noticeably poor, and the breakfast selection was disappointing — the food tasted as though it had been sitting out for quite some time, and the coffee from the machine resembled little more than lukewarm, dirty water. Upon arrival, the reception experience was unwelcoming. When I requested a room change due to the bathroom type not being suitable, the response I received was unnecessarily unpleasant and dismissive, with the staff member asking, “Have you used it?” The heating system also took approximately 30 minutes to begin working, which was inconvenient. The only positive aspect was the quality of the bathroom toiletries, which were pleasantly scented and generously sized. However, the overall condition of the hotel left much to be desired — even the reception washroom remained in the same unclean state from check-in to checkout. Regrettably, I would not recommend this hotel based on my experience.

While the bed was very comfortable the decor in the room very nice there was no hot water for a shower. On calling the staff they told us a plumber had been called and the problem would be fixed. In the morning there was hot water in the basin but none in the shower. Then none at all for me on leaving it run for a bit but later there was warm water but not hot for my partner. No attempt at apology no compensation nothing. This is a great shame as it has great potential, breakfast was very good and the facilities are very good too, spa pool table piano bars etc in a lovely setting. One can’t help things breaking down but I suspect maintenance is an issue in a big complex like this. Additionally some form of recompense would smooth the way to a return visit.
