Seacombe House Motor Inn Port Fairy

We booked last minute…it was $250/night and the TA reviews looked very positive and the place seemed a bit more upscale. When we arrived, we were greeted by a very polite, helpful and engaging receptionist. We got a room upgrade to one that had the bathroom reno. The king family was indeed large, the bathroom/toilet was nice and new, but the shower’s water pressure was low. Regrettably, the carpet was dirty, stained and smelled. The towels were clean, but old and frayed and the wifi reception was very poor. The walls have poor insulation…we could hear our neighbours speak and their TV also. The bed was, however, very comfortable. We had a few dead and live crickets in our room - a visit from pest control could handle that in an environmentally friendly manner. Overall, we were just disappointed with the hotel…it has the potential to be so much more. We are well travelled and have stayed in a broad spectrum of accommodation types, even family hostels, so we are being very objective with this review - feel free to read more of our reviews, especially recent ones.

This was our third stay and was as great as on previous occasions. Stayed for 2 nights but could have stayed for a week. Love the location and prefer to stay in the old part of the building. Has so much history and a great feel to it. It was a quiet time to stay - midweek and winter! Room was clean, comfy, warm and peaceful. The shared room upstairs had all the provisions you could need too. Will certainly be back and highly recommend!

Reception on arrival was brilliant. A very effervescent Katherine (who is also the residential Manager) provided a very warm welcome and was able to negotiate through an error (of my own making) effortlessly regarding our booking. Plenty of advice given regarding local facilities and amenities and made to instantly feel welcome both to the accommodation and the community. The room was in the historical part of the building, downstairs. While the occasional footsteps could be heard above, it never became an issue. While not overly large, the room exuded comfort, and while within a historic building, also exuded a style commensurate with four-to-five-star accommodation. It contains a large comfortable bed along with a table and chairs from which to be able to work. The bathroom was large and very well provided with complimentary toiletries and a shower with two shower heads providing one with a choice as to what (and what not) to wash. Excellently located within the small township allowing for a variety of options to be explored for whatever meal or refreshment was desired.

The most stylish, comfy motel room in a lovely garden setting with the most helpful friendly staff! A lovely little restaurant with great coffee adjoins Seacombe House. Perfectly placed in the Main Street but away from the bustle. Wonderful! We plan to return again!

We stayed here last night.The accomodation was very modern inside and clean.The pricing of our room was also good.The woman that booked us in and the woman who checked us out were both very helpful.The town of Port Fairy is lovely we wish we had stayed longer but had more accomodation booked else where on our holiday.

Beds are absolutely wonderful - it was sleeping on a cloud! The room is spacious, the bathroom is really modern and highly functional, with an interesting garden (smell the Children's Rose, and check out the rooftop terrace). Highly recommended!

We enjoyed our night at Seacombe House in Port Fairy. We chose to stay in Gun Alley, which is one of the original rooms dating from when the building was a pub. The room is very spacious and features the original ceiling of hand cut boards. The bathroom is excellent, very modern and well designed. The building is old and therefore a bit noisy but we enjoyed it for what it is.
