Bairnsdale

"Lovely place to stay, rooms are amazing and spacious clean and tidy, coffee tea facilities tucked away in the cupboard, bed was very comfortable. The bar area is decorated with great pictures and painted dark giving it a moody feel. We sat in the large chairs next to the fire place it was very relaxing after a long drive. Hotel offers 2 EV chargers and is positioned near shops and restaurants. Would recommend this boutique motel."
