McLaren Vale Hotels with Swimming Pools

Enjoying a winery lunch, we decided to stay on in McLaren Vale if we could find a last-minute accommodation option. We were lucky to score an executive suite at this great motel, offering a king size bed, spa and leather recliners. The motel also offers a couple of relaxing garden and deck areas, a tiny gym and a sauna. Friendly and helpful staff, close to all the Main Street attractions of the town - what more could you ask for? It's also quiet at night and has parking right outside your room.

Lets start with the very limited good. The rooms are a good size and The grounds are well looked after. Unfortunately, that’s where it ends. The rooms are very old and dated, the bathroom is something from the 70’s and is in dire need of a refurb. You can also hear everything going on in the rooms either side of you As far as service is concerned that is extremely bad. We had a group of 32 booked in for a wedding. We had arranged for a buffet breakfast on the Sunday morning they advised they could do it at $25.00 per person. A couple of months later we were notified that it would now be $29.00 per person as the woman who had made this original agreement has now left the winery. So without a choice we agreed to the $29 per person and booked that in. A couple of weeks before our arrival we get an email saying they cannot do breakfast AT ALL anymore due to staffing issues, however held another breakfast for other wedding guests the same day we were booked in??? We also booked an Al a carte dinner for 16 people on the Friday night. On the Monday the week before our arrival we were told that there is only now an option for a 2 course set meal or a 3 course set meal costing a lot more than what we AGAIN Already agreed on. So we cancelled the dinner reservation and went to another winery down the road. When I asked to speak to the manager about all the original changes I was told that the woman who had sent the emails was the manager. So that should give you some idea of what your dealing with. We had a 2 night stay and the cleaner came on the first morning and changed the bin. THAT’S IT. Did not bother to make the bed or touch the bathroom. Overall, the service at this winery is nothing short of terrible. We will never return here and advise you to AVOID
