Top East Bairnsdale Hotel Reviews

Lakeside Motel Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay."

Bairnsdale International

10/10 Excellent

"We were in Bairnsdale for family funeral and the accommodation during this stay was great. Rooms very clean, comfortable and quiet. Off street parking was a bonus. Birds chirping in the trees, outside in the morning, was lovely & peaceful. The staff were exceptionally friendly. We had a scrumptious breakfast on our last morning in the restaurant which was perfectly presented and very generous. There was a very good vibe amongst the staff which was proof of a well run establishment."

Ocean Views Motel Lakes Entrance

8/10 Good

"Dated but clean motel with good ocean view. Helpful staff. Very reasonable pricing. Only downside was noisy youngsters in the next room who were up till 3am! And blockout curtains would be good too. For this price and facilities with two separate bedrooms for four adults, will stay again."

Maeburn Cottages - Self-contained Lakeside Getaway

10/10 Excellent

"Dorothy was very polite and welcoming host and met us during check in. BothCheck in and check out process was very easy. The cottage was as advertised, clean and very pet-friendly. Cottage had all the amenities and had a comfortable stay. Joe’s Cafe & Fish and chips shop were really good . We also enjoyed picking up boysenberries and eating them straight from the tree in the car parking spot. Will visit again. Thanks."

Bairnsdale Tanjil Motor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Really good if you got bikes. We were able to keep the bikes inside overnight. There is a hose near the pool to wash bikes as well. We had a separate smaller bedroom and a main bedroom within our cabin and plenty of tea and coffee. However the neighbours were noisy and did not a get a good night sleep."
