4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 March 2013

The décor is dated and the promise of "enjoying pre-dinner drinks with soft music and dimmed lighting", as stated in the in-room guide, was at odds with the deathly silence and bright lights of the dining room. The front desk seems to double as the bar. However, the meal was very good and the free continental style breakfast was very... More

Thank you very much for your response. We are new owners for only 2 weeks and certainly wanting to make Allan Cunningham Motel as good a stay as others have found in the past and even better 1. In regards to the music - we have had a couple of days downtime with the music, as the front reception has... More

I have stayed here many times for work and with the family. Great location on the main road into the CBD. Close to some decent restaurants. Great country service with clean rooms. Breakfast in the dining room is great and is included in the room price. Although close to the highway you are protected from the road noise.

The staff/owners were absolutely wonderful when we arrived & discovered I had booked the wrong night...I was a day early. I had my daughter & 2 grandchildren with me so to find a room to accommodate us at an instants notice was not an easy task but they did it & at no extra charge! To say I was impressed... More

We stayed here one night. The room was a bit dark & dated, but very clean and comfortable. Restaurant was not open (Sunday night) but staff recommended a chinese restaurant close by, which was great. Free breakfast was included in room cost & was very nice. overalkl I would be happy to recommend this motel. 8/10.

I chose the Allan Cunningham Motel due to previous Tripadvisor reviews particularly the mention of a comfortable bed. The bed was indeed comfortable and the room, whilst not modern looking in every aspect, was rather appealing in a cosy brick and wood kind of way and the carpet was soft underfoot. The units are not 'quiet' but the beds are... More

We stayed here for two nights. The room was very clean. Our bed was very comfortable. Even though it's right on the highway, we could hardly hear any traffic noise from our room at all. The parking was great because it's under roof parking and it's right on our bedroom doorstep. We dined in the restaurant on the first night... More

I wouldn't spend a holiday here but for one night passing through I was pleasantly surprised. It was cheap and looked nasty from the outside but I was actually very happy with the room and had a superb sleep. It was clean, neat and tidy and the most amazing thing was that it has a water filter in the bathroom... More

I chose this motel after reading another review here. The description was pretty accurate. Nothing to rave about for facilities or decor but the price is good (don't forget to ask for a discount if you are a senior or RACV member). The only quibble I had was that I specifically asked about internet facilities before booking but was assured... More
