Stay away from this motel
Pros:

Charged us $25 for apparently missing part of coffee machine when we didn’t even use,tried to explain that we took the pods to use in bellfield didn’t even want to bother listening and telling me that everything was fully stocked and checked before we checked in, yeah right to. All 2 rooms and bellfield we booked has no soap, no hand wash, freezer was full of iced we couldn’t even close it. We don’t even know where the pods drop container is we have had to ask the cleaner to clean them up so how did we manage to steal the pods container drop 🙄. This is not a great hotel. Has discount code on the website that doesn’t even work and when email to ask just blatantly ignored. Stay away. Not a great place to stay

Pros:

The setting was fabulous. Room was clean although somewhat dated. The most disappointing aspect in our room was that the both the bed and couch were so saggy that it was an issue for our backs. Perhaps other rooms have been updated...?

Lovely outlook to the Grampians range, expansive grounds, a little south of the township of Halls Gap ensuring peaceful, quiet surrounds with kangaroos grazing nearby and curious but friendly cockatoos and magpies near to our room.

Only for the desparate.
Pros:

Very old and in decrepit condition. Roon was unclean when we entered and manager did not show any concern.
Far away from the centre and walking tracks, you have to use your car for any activity or to find restaurants. (from the look of the room I wouldn't risk eating at their bistro)

Nice place to stay in the Grampians. Nothing fancy but clean, has a great view and love the kangaroos wandering about the property. The manager was very attentive and even let me check in really early.

Pros:

I was sent a text message as reception was closing soon to collect keys from a safe which was great as I was arriving later than approximation. The room was clean with a nice smell, plenty of towels and toiletries. Wildlife just grazing on the lawn, small but sufficient pool. Met the staff the following day and were so friendly.

Definitely stay here
Pros:

We loved this place. There were kangaroos all over the place and a brave kangaroo that came up near the rooms as well as lots of birds. The people who owned the place were lovely and really funny. There was a really nice atmosphere at dinner with a big group of people enjoying a break away.
The rooms were clean, spacious and welcoming.

Nice place to stop in Halls Gap
Pros:

Lovely motel where you get a personal and warm welcome and tasty, home cooked meals. There are great hiking trails nearby and the kangaroos on premise are a fun bonus to see for us coming from the USA! The owners are a friendly, funny couple who seem to love the work they do. We especially enjoyed the post dinner gathering around the fire pit to toast marshmallows and make smores.

Halls Gap is sensational
Pros:

The location and setting of this motel is exceptional. Many international visitors have discovered this. Yes its not pretentious, and the rooms are basic and comfortable. But it has something else.
