This is a lovely motel. Tastefully decorated with a super comfortable bed, modern bathroom and luxury toiletries. We had excellent food at the Farmer's Arms, just opposite and also Cliffy's down the road. Highly recommend the Daylesfors Art motel.

A small motel, with convenient parking outside your room. The room was small but not cramped, it was fresh and modern, bed comfortable and everything clean. Check in was contactless, through using a code for a key safe on the outside entry door and the system worked well. I would stay again.

We loved the comfortable king bed and roomy shower with great water pressure! There were some lovely treats and water supplied complementary which was very nice. Only one thing missing was a shower cap being supplied as the shower was an overhead shower. Will definitely return whenever we visit Daylesford again.

The only reason I marked staff and service with a 4/5 was because there is no reception. I travelled with my Mum. It's all online. That was fine for me, but if my Mum was on her own it would have been an issue. Excellent place to stay and would definitely stay again.

It was all very easy going from the beginning. Check in and check out was simple, easy to understand and all round just straight forward. Leading up to the day the reception were very helpful with their responses to my enquiries and also very quick to reply back to me. The motel its self was beautiful! Huge king bed, such a luxury and the bathroom was stunning, clean, modern and another luxury of a big shower. I liked the motel because it didn’t feel like a ‘normal motel’ very clean, comfortable and unique. I would definitely stay here again.

This is a self service check in motel. It has everything you need with some treats provided in the room. It was clean, quiet and convenient for my needs as an overnight mid week stop over. Other motels should use this place as an example on how to exceed customer expectations. I would stay here time and time again as they have got it right in the motel sector. Well done to everyone involved to keeping this place so simple but sophisticated in every aspect.
