Hi Way Eight Motor Inn

What guests think

At Hi Way Eight Motor Inn, reviews highlight very clean, well-kept rooms in an older, upgraded roadside property, an appreciated simple included breakfast, friendly hosts, and convenient access for Grampians trips, while highway truck noise bothers front-facing rooms.

Guests often find the beds comfortable and rooms spacious, though a few note dated decor or bathrooms and occasional hard mattresses. The outdoor pool is well regarded, though water temperature comments vary. A straightforward, good-value stopover for exploring the region or breaking a long drive.

Had a wonderful stay in a double deluxe. Manager showed me the standard double which was very nice and the deluxe which had some nice touches. Reading lamps and power points and usb chargers on the bedsides. A larger more modern bathroom. I will bring the family next time I head this way to see the Grampians. Can hike in the morning and relax in the pool in the afternoon. Traffic noise was less because it was a quiet weekend, but have to expect some noise at a place called HiWay :)

Great value. Really clean property and friendly greeting on arrival! I did not have time to have a swim, but put my leg into the water at the pool and it was warm. Very very clean pool. Really impressed with the cleanliness. Old classic road motel charm and service! Thank you for a great stay!

Stayed 2 nights in Room 11 which is at rear of the property and well off the Highway which is subject to considerable truck traffic all night long - We have stayed here several times and stayed in a room at the front on one occasion - noise was very bad all night - stay at the rear and you’ll be fine - the room are spotless and have tastefully modernised- fitted with an efficient split system A/C and a large Flat Screen TV with numerous standard and cable s channels. Microwave in room and light Breakfast supplied in Brekkie Room - parking outside your room - very well run properly and will certainly stay here again. Bed and Shower both good - hosts very hospitable.

Normalerweise verlasse ich mich auf die Bewertungen hier bei Hotels.com und ich war immer zufrieden. Aber leider passt das hier bei diesem Motel/Hotel gar nicht! Das Hotel ist sehr in die Jahre gekommen. Daher wäre es dringend notwendig das mal auf neusten Stand zu bringen. Nun gäbe es noch die Möglichkeit zu sagen, in die Jahre gekommen und sauber, was noch in Ordnung wäre. Aber wenn dann noch eine dicke Staubschicht den TV-Schrank direkt neben der Zimmertür bedeckt, dann bekommt man im Prinzip schon genug. Daher kann ich leider überhaupt keine gute Bewertung abgeben. Das Bad ist ebenfalls …eher naja… Zudem: Wer Ruhe sucht sollte keinesfalls in in dieses Hotel gehen! Eine wichtige Sache zu erwähnen ist, dass gleich daneben eine gut befahrene Bindesstraß ist. Deshalb donnern die ganze Nacht über LKWs vorbei welche nicht zu überhören sind! Das Frühstück….trallala

Spacious older style motel. On the main highway but not too noisy. Comfortable beds. Breakfast available in shared area with the highlight being Ruby, the friendly host dog. Did miss heating in the bathroom but everything else was absolutely fine, especially for a one night stay. Lots of power sockets which is very handy.
