We stayed here for one night on our way down the south coast. We booked the spa room and were very pleasantly surprised when we arrived! The room was huge and was more like a one bedroom apartment rather then a hotel room. Everything was clean and modern and the balcony views were fantastic. The morning of check out we decided to eat breakfast in the restaurant but upon ordering we realised we were running late so requested to have our breakfast brought to our room instead. This was no problem at all for the woman working there and within 15 minutes she was delivering our food to our door for no extra charge. This is a great little place for all kind of travellers and the staff were just lovely! Highly recommend!

Food was delivered to our room without a lid on the plates in the cold, guest by who, the chef himself , and when asked about it he replied "The food will look like crap if covered"

Driving back from Melbourne just after New Year, we had pre-booked 2 days at the Whale Motor Inn as Narooma was suggested as a good stopover. We weren't disappointed. Our room on the 2nd level was and executive suite and was a very good choice. Newly renovated, it had a spacious hallway off of which was a decent bathroom with hairdryer and a separate bedroom which was spacious and had good hanging space and a decent make-up table & mirror which is sadly lacking in most establishments. At the end of the hass was a large lounge room with 3 + 2 seater black leather sofas, coffee table, dining table & chairs for 2, a writing desk and chair, and a small kitchenette which was nicely appointed. A flat screen TV & free internet was appreciated by us. A decent balcony with outdoor setting provided welcome sun & shade when needed and had a view over the waterways and beach.

A pool was located near this unit and there was some noise during the day, but it did not bother us as the nights were quiet. A very good restaurant and bar is located on site.

Beware the French restaurant across the road, not good value at all, but head on down to the cheap and cheerful Taylors on Riverside Drive for fish and chips overlooking the water. BYO and no charge!

Our room was comfortable and clean - not fantastic, but average and decent enough for our requirements. Staff were nice and friendly. In our booking we requested a cot be set up in our room on arrival however we were disappointed it wasn't there when we arrived and never arrived during our stay, so baby slept in bed with us.

My main memory though of this hotel will always be the DINNER we had at the hotel's restaurant which was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I haven't looked into whether the chef at this hotel is famous or not (he must be), but he is obviously well travelled, extensively experienced, and extremely gifted. All we did was scoff and 'mmmm' , and there was not a smidgen of food (inc sauce) left on our plates by the end of it. The food prepared for us was up there with what we had at Marque in Sydney (3 hats) - and was definately one of the best feeds we have had in our lives.
