4 friends driving from Adelaide to Point Lonsdale made this the first overnight stop and our ground floor rooms were comfortable and good value. The service we received was great and the friendliness of the owners could not be faulted. Very helpful advice was provided about Robe and the surrounding area. We were sorry we were staying for one night... More

Upstairs room with balcony overlooking the harbour, very modern, large and clean, spa bath - not cheap but a great treat for a night or two. It's about a ten min walk into town, through the park opposite and along the sea front, owners helpful with suggested walks and restaurants - although the place is currently up for sale. Hopefully...

Stayed 2 nights, Very nice clean rooms, comfy bed, everything you need for a short stay, nice staff and very clean bathroom, a bit too pricey at $180.00 per night for a ground view room when you don't really get a view as people park their huge 4 wd's and cars right up in front of your window and outside...

My partner and I stayed at the Harbour View Motel for 5 nights and left very satisfied and relaxed! The location was perfect - quiet, nice park opposite, great views and away from traffic and crowds, yet only a five minute walk from shops/restaurants and swimming beaches. The staff were very friendly and helpful with providing tips and advice on... More

My husband and I booked for one night and was more than satisfied with the room and service that we received. We were lucky to have a room at the front overlooking the sea. We found the room to be large and exceptionally clean. We would highly recommend this motel. More

Our ground floor room was clean, bright and airy. The large window had a roller blind as well as curtains. The blind allowed light to enter the room but hindered people seeing directly into the room during daylight hours. Everything worked. The bathroom was more like a wet room although the shower curtain was long enough to prevent water covering... More

Just a nice place but nothing more and nothing less. Clean rooms, not very big but enough. Possible noise of passing cars of other guests. Good BBQ area with clean BBQ surface where you can eat with your familiy (space enough) A little bit off the centre of Robe (to far to walk for elderly people, no taxi in Robe!) More

We booked a family room for 2 kids and 2 adults. There was a queen bed and 2 singles. The room was so cramped we hardly had any wiggle room. Bathroom was really tiny. As there were 4 of us, the extra pillows in the room weren't enough for the kids. So my husband went to the manager to ask... More

Rather more basic than expected though the view was lovely. Bathroom plastic feeling, entrance stairs impossible for any large cases. Proprietors business-like rather than friendly. Fine for one night but overpriced for what we got compared to other places on our trip. The only rooms worth staying in were the two front ones on the first floor but then these... More
