Could not have asked for a better place to stay. Everything any guest could need for a comfortable stay was all on hand, but what we loved most was the "80s Chic Vibe" and the peaceful gardens... cosy, warm and inviting in a way that is rarely found when looking for accommodation anywhere now. We will certainly be back and highly recommend Coonawarra Place Motor Inn as a wonderful place to stay.

Beautiful outdoor surrounding. Rooms are spacious, very well set out and equipped, pleasant & appropriately organized furniture ; beds have very good/comfortable mattresses. Excellent provision of variety of breakfast cereals; fridge had milk, bread, butter, bottled water and 2 types of fruit juices. There were a variety of cutleries, drinking glasses and dining ware.

Great stay ensured

Room was exceptional. Very large with great features. Bed was super comfortable and bedding materials are first class. Central large grassed area in front of each unit was a nice place to relax and enjoy the surrounds. Very quiet and comfortable would highly recommend

This property is 10 minutes from the nearest town with night time dining, unfortunately there is no taxi service in the area and neither the hotel our local eating establishments offer a courtesy bus. It's very unfortunate considering you are in wine country and one or two would be nice with dinner without the risk of driving home. This hotel is really inconveniently located and makes getting around a real struggle. Also I stayed for 3 nights and my room was not serviced once whilst I was there. At $200 per night I expect a little more. I probably wouldn't stay here again.
