Best Western Apollo Bay Motel and Apartments

The staff here was very friendly and helpful, it is a bit pricey but expected for a resort town. I…read morebelieve the persons name was Mathew who checked us in, he took the time to show us several points of interest on the area that we were traveling, as well as times to avoid the heaviest traffic. He helped us see sights we wouldn't have which added to our experience. It's the way a person in customer service should act! Would recommend staying because of that

For some reason,…read moremy better half thought we'd have an ocean view but that wasn't reasonable to expect at the price... The room was clean, the bed was comfy. It was fine. Basic. However, we do have a nice story. The manager said she'd been training up a new staff who'd accidentally charged our credit card twice. Although the charge was immediately reversed, she gave us a bottle of red wine to apologise. I really think this is a nice example of customer service: both friendly and professional, and I wish the managers/owners (who seem to be new) success.

Came for lunch while driving Great Ocean Road and the seafood was incredible! My family of 6 got 2…read morepizzas ($18 each), chicken parm (~$25) and a Sicilian Seafood Stew ($29) to share and it was the perfect amount of food! The Stew was phenomenal - so flavorful and a big serving! Paired with the pizza it was just the right amount of carbs and meat (: My brother loved the prawn + rocket pizza while I was more of a fan of the veggie pizza - both were great though! Service was fast and really nice! No reservation needed and outdoor seating available!
Well, I can only go by my one experience down here, which was late one night while I was taking the…read moresceanic route back to Adelaide. After booking into a motel I decided to go and look for a place to have a meal, and sure enough I found this place. The Olympics were on at the time (and I was cheering on Kazakstan because Australia was doing quite badly) so I spent some time in the front bar with a beer. I also had a meal at the restaurant and I must say I certainly have had a lot better. They do have a nice beer garden out the front with a pleasant view of the foreshore though. However, since passing through here again I noticed that there was another pub further on that suggested that this place was simply the 'local's bar' with nothing fancy added.

The owner is extremely friendly and gave us some great suggestions for food in the town. The rooms are great with views of the sea from the front balcony. Very nice bathroom amenities as well.

We arrived at a little late (8 PM) and…read morethe reception office had already closed but there were clear instructions on how to get our keys to enter our room. The room featured a queen bed, a twin bed, a small kitchenette, and a clean bathroom with shower. The kitchenette had a microwave, utensils, plates, and salt and pepper. The utensils came in handy to cut up some of Australia's delicious mangoes we had bought at the supermarket. The Inn is just blocks from the main city center. Apollo Bay features a couple of grocery stores (IGA, Foodworks), a few coffee shops and cafes, and a brewhouse to grab some local beers and wines.

Secluded and equiped with everything you need for a romantic weekend away. Alan the owner was very helpful and friendly and communication before we arrived during and after was very easy. The little touches in the home made it that much cosier and relaxing. Fresh flowers in a few places, bottle of champers, chocolates, continental breakfast. Thinking back on it makes me more relaxed! All kitchen facilities, bbq, deck, fire place, spa, two shower heads in the shower (a bonus when the partner loves boiling hot water and I enjoy warm but enjoying the company at the same time!). There's also a massive king size bed. I sort of wish I lived there but also having the same exact layout and everything in the city! Worth the splurge and indulgent weekend with your partner.

There is an odd nook which juts out into the yard and any passerby can see you sitting at the table. Shutters behind you will seal off this area from the rest of the bedroom. Odd but kinda fun if you are voyeuristic, right?

Lovely clean, fresh, newly updated interiors with large spacious bedroom, a firm mattress (which we love) separate kitchen area and good sized bathroom with shower & plenty of pressure - woot woot. Coffee and tea provided as well as plates, bowls, utensils, mini-fridge and microwave etc The interiors of the room have brick on both sides and wood style floors. It really was very nicely done. This is a Mom & Pop establishment so you must check-in before 7pm, so if stopping here on a 2 day tour of the GOR as we did, make sure with your tour director, that they will have you there in time.

The room was actually really nice, and I did get a pretty decent sleep as well. I probably wouldn't recommend coming here during high season, or if you do make sure you book ahead, however my luck probably had more to do with me arriving in the middle of winter during the working week as opposed to any other time. Oh, it's also pretty close to conveniences as well.

Great for a weekend but has all the amenities such as pool, tennis courts and bbq areas for longer stays. The owner is really lovely and keeps her office open all day if you'd like to grab a vhs (yep, but you also have a dvd player in your loft as well) or some birdseed to feed the friendly cockatoos and parakeets that will visit your patio. It's charming, private and you can hear the roar of the ocean at night. Magical!

We stayed in an ocean view room which was well kept however probably 20 years old so a slight refurbishment is due.
