What a wonderful Motel to stay. Staff are friendly and unit is spotless and fresh milk for our tea and coffee. It is a short walk into Colac but has an IGA close by. Thoroughly recommend you stay there. We will certainly be back when visiting relatives again.

The motel was modern, clean and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and accommodating for a late check in. It was also in a very central location. Overall I would highly recommend a stay here for anyone looking for accommodation in Colac.

Graham was such a pleasure to deal with during our booking and our stay. Beautifully updated comfortable rooms. IGA 1 min walk away. Gorgeous town! Get down by the lake and gardens to see Jack for a good chai as you walk around. Cant wait for another trip to stay at this motel when we visit family near by.

My wife and I stayed for 1 night whilst visiting Colac. We arrived at about 9pm and whilst the office seemed closed the staff appeared and happily showed us to our room. The room was very clean and quite comfortable. Very happy and would certainly stay again.

I recently stayed 2 nights at this motel. My room was extremely comfortable and had everything I could have needed including a kettle, toaster, microwave, hairdryer, electric blanket and even a USB port for charging. Even though the room was relatively small there was a lot of storage space. The room has been totally renovated, lovely bathroom with a rain shower and everything was spotlessly clean (and I can be fussy when it comes to cleanliness). Lovely linen and towels. There was car parking at the door so it was easy to unload and load the car. Graeme at reception was very welcoming and helpful right from my phone call to make the booking. I could not fault this motel and would definitely stay again next time I'm in the area.

Simply the best Motel in Melbourne! Me and my partner broke down in Otway park and had this accommodation booked for us through our insurance company for the night. All I can say is 6 stars! The rooms are clean, spacious, fully equipped and modern. The towels are lovely and fluffy and the toiletries provided are a thoughtful touch. There’s even a kettle, toaster and microwave! The owner and his partner are some of the kindest people you will ever meet! They even drove us to the shops to make sure we could get some food and drink as we had not eaten since our breakdown, and everything was closed by the time we arrived here. If you are looking for a Motel, Hotel, airBNB or any form of accommodation, look no further than Otway Gate Motel :)

We booked for two nights & it is not difficult to see why the "No Vacancy" sign was up for both nights. Graeme had done us a big favour, & when we arrived, he took us to our room, showed us how the TV & WiFi worked, & generally made us feel very welcome. Our room was spotless & very well appointed- TV, kettle, toaster, luxurious towels, spotless bathroom, all made for a very comfortable stay. Parking was right outside our door& our room was well away from the road so there was no traffic noiseThere is a guests' laundry & BBQ area, although we used neither. Graeme suggested where we should eat & where we shouldn't & his recommendation for the former was spot on. After the first night, our room was serviced which came as a pleasant surprise. Breakfast was available if required. Overall, we were delighted & next time we are in Colac, we will be making a beeline to the Otway Gate. Rick R

A stone's throw from the city centre, this motel has been recently renovated to a high standard and a goodly amount of thought has gone into practical and sensible attention to detail, from easily accessable power outlets and USB charge points on both sides of the bed to Tesla charge points for EVs in the parking areas. The TV is a 50" Sony Android and gives access to Netflix, Amazon Prime and YouTube (previous occupants have kindly left their accounts open), not the trashy, tiny TV you usually find. The cleanliness cannot be faulted and the staff are exceedingly friendly and eager to assist. Free access to laundry facilities is a very welcome bonus.

This is a great motel. Rooms are clean, modern and spacious. Plenty of cupboards to store things. Good size parking spaces that are easy to get in and out of. The owner is friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.
