My husband and I chanced upon the Vine Inn as a result of a 'South Aussie with Cossie' travel…read moreauction. We stayed for three nights in room 13. Our room was very clean and appeared to have been recently updated with a new bathroom, toilet and soft furnishings. The bed was so comfortable I found it quite difficult to rise in the mornings. Being at the back of the Inn proved to be a little noisy at times due to customers leaving the bottle-o at quite a speed and a generator kicking in from time to time. It was hot the afternoon we arrived, fortunately we remembered to pack our bathers and we went for a dip and a spa in the generously furnished and well-kept fenced pool area. Dinner in the bistro the first night was plentiful and delicious. We had the fried cheeses and arancini balls for entree followed by the seafood platter for two, all complimented by the Kellermiester Pinot Gris. Had we realised how large the platter would be we would have reconsidered entree as we were unable to finish it, leaving the chips and salt and pepper squid. Dinner on the second night was still delicious though the chicken in my chicken and prawn larb salad was very dry and I left it aside. The salad was very generous and despite leaving the chicken I still left feeling satisfied. My husband had the heidelberg chicken breast and thoroughly enjoyed it. All-in-all our stay at the Vine Inn was comfortable and enjoyable and I would recommend the Inn as an affordable base-camp for families looking to experience the Barossa Valley.

We have stayed here once before so when we were coming to a wedding nearby this was the perfect…read moreplace to stay again. Finding the cheapest rates in the area always appeals to me (plus I'm always up for an adventure) so at $90 a night I was happy. The motel is what you expect when you hear motel, rooms set out on either side with a drive in reception and your own car park directly outside your room. Speaking amenities, each room has its own outside seating set with two chairs and a smoking bucket. There is a playground, which has no shade, but is a great addition for the families (Boo had awesome fun once the sun had gone down and early morning). There is also a pool which we used last time and is clean and well looked after, with toilets, toys and towels provided. Inside the room is dated, but comfortable. I'm not against dated furnishings, and the exposed brick wall is actually coming BACK into fashion so they have a winner there. Bed was comfy, I recommend pillows as theirs are thin (I bought mine as I always hate hotel pillows) and there are only 3. Room was clean and pleasant. Provided in the room was a small kitchenette including coffee area and fridge. Kettle, iron and hairdryer were located in the cupboard. Hairdryer was lacklustre and took me about an hour to dry my hair, but hey it's an added bonus not a requirement so I recommend bringing your own. There is also free wifi once reception gives you your password. One negative I had was the water pressure in the shower was pretty low. Over all, two very successful, cheap stays. Thumbs up ;)

From walking into the veranda with the gorgeous fountain, to the super friendly, attentive and happy staff at the front desk, to walking into your suite and being blown away with the space, the indoor and outdoor showers, the outer patio, the big bed, the heated bathroom floors, the walk in robe, the big TV with DVD selection OR the beautiful little touch of biscuits and port on arrival for you. PHEW! The Louise is also home to Appelation, which is constantly rated to be one of the best restaurants in Australia. But even if you stay at The Louise without going to Appelation is is extremely worth it. I'll be back when I have a few hundred spare dollars...
