Top Ararat Hotel Reviews

Hi Way Eight Motor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Place was clean and fresh. Plates and cutlery provided in the room so went out got chinese takeaway. Would recommend this great place to stay. Free breakfast provided in dinning room."

Lake Fyans Holiday Park

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at this caravan park. The park was clean, quiet, and very well maintained. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. The facilities were spotless, and the location was perfect for relaxing and exploring the surrounding area. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this caravan park to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable holiday. We will definitely be back!"

Stawell Grampians Gate C & C Park

8/10 Good

"Really enjoyed the stay. The room was clean, the staff were excellent and very helpful, and the facilities were perfectly adequate. The price was a little high, but that seems to be the case with accommodation everywhere at the moment. Overall, a very good experience and I’d happily stay again."

Magdala Motor Lodge & Lakeside Restaurant

8/10 Good

"Stayed for 2 night in a Standard Queen Lakeview - Lake consists of a man-made channel surrounding the complex with the brownest of muddy water - not dirty or scummy or ugly but not a sprawling Lake either. Did not use any amenities outside of our room - did not use Restaurant. Situated on the Western Highway but constructed a fair way back off the road so we were not bothered by the continual passage of trucks passing by - this is the main highway connecting Adelaide and Melbourne and trucks use it 24 hours a day - we have stayed on other Motels in Stawell which are built right on the highway and noise IS an issue ALL NIGHT. It was July and very Cold and Wet - accordingly we did not explore the grounds - we were just there to sleep ! Room was large - more than big enough for a King Bed (we only had a Queen) and Heating cycle of the A/C worked very well - all appliances worked well - plenty of bench space and spacious bathroom with plenty of Bench too. Would stay there again - tariff was good - is on the western outskirts of town and parking is directly outside your room - a long way to “walk” into town - you basically need a car."
