Geelong Hotel Tips by nezz

WE WERE ARRIVING AT NEARLY MIDNIGHT ON A JETSTAR FLIGHT THAT LANDS IN AVALON . WITHIN 45 MINS OF LANDING WE HAD CAUGHT A DOOR TO DOOR SHUTTLE BUS AND WERE IN OUR ROOM AT THE INN. THIS NEWLY RENOVATED & TASTLY DECORATED ROOM HAD LOADS OF SPACE AND A VERY LARGE BATHROOM. THERE IS A DINING ROOM AND WE HAD A LOVELY BREAKFAST IN THE MORNING (NOT INCLUDED IN OUR ROOM RATE BUT REASONABLY PRICED). IT IS SITUATED ON A MAJOR ROADWAY BETWEEN MELBOURNE AND GEELONG SO THERE WAS TRAFFIC NOISE EVEN THOUGH WE WERE GIVEN A REAR ROOM AS REQUESTED. WE COULD NOT COMPLAIN AS WE GOT THE ROOM AT A DISCOUNT RATE ON A LAST MINUTE WEBSITE.

THE LOCATION TO THE TRAIN & BUS STATION IS EXCELLENT ONLY A BRISK 15 MINUTE WALK SOUTH FROM THE INN

Unique Qualities: THE HOTEL ROOM WE STAYED IN WAS REALLY VERY SPACIOUS WITH ENOUGH ROOM FOR A TWO SEATER COUCH TO WATCH THE TV, WITH FREE FOXTEL CHANNELS. IT ALSO HAD TEA & COFFEE MAKING FACILITIES AS WELL AS A MINI BAR FRIDGE. THERE WAS ALSO A SMALL TABLE & TWO CHAIRS TO USE. THE BED WAS A VERY COMFORTABLE QUEEN SIZE. THE SHEETS & PILLOWS WERE OF GOOD QUALITY AND THE AIRCONDITIONING WAS QUIET & INDIVIDUALLY CONTROLLED SO WE SLEPT COMFORTABLY.
THE INN HAS FAMILY UNTIS AT THE REAR WHICH WE DID NOT SEE IN BUT LOOKED THE SAME STYLE & AGE AS THE HOTEL COMPLEX
THERE IS ALSO AN INDOOR POOL THAT WE DID NOT USE.
