Top Ararat Racecourse Hotel Reviews

Statesman Motor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice place"

G'day Parks Ararat

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were very helpful and understanding of after hours checkin. Getting the key was a smooth process in the after hours chute and the room was ready for us, with heating and lights already turned on, which we were very appreciative of as it was a cold night. The beds were clean and comfortable and parking was easy."

Stawell Grampians Gate C & C Park

8/10 Good

"Really enjoyed the stay. The room was clean, the staff were excellent and very helpful, and the facilities were perfectly adequate. The price was a little high, but that seems to be the case with accommodation everywhere at the moment. Overall, a very good experience and I’d happily stay again."

Bellellen Park 1 by Tiny Away

8/10 Good

"This tiny home is lovely, and the location is really nice. What we didn't expect is that it is really close to a second tiny home - about 5meters, and this is problematic when both are occupied (as they were for us), as you have to close all blinds to get privacy. Otherwise it is really nice!"

Magdala Motor Lodge & Lakeside Restaurant

8/10 Good

"Stayed for 2 night in a Standard Queen Lakeview - Lake consists of a man-made channel surrounding the complex with the brownest of muddy water - not dirty or scummy or ugly but not a sprawling Lake either. Did not use any amenities outside of our room - did not use Restaurant. Situated on the Western Highway but constructed a fair way back off the road so we were not bothered by the continual passage of trucks passing by - this is the main highway connecting Adelaide and Melbourne and trucks use it 24 hours a day - we have stayed on other Motels in Stawell which are built right on the highway and noise IS an issue ALL NIGHT. It was July and very Cold and Wet - accordingly we did not explore the grounds - we were just there to sleep ! Room was large - more than big enough for a King Bed (we only had a Queen) and Heating cycle of the A/C worked very well - all appliances worked well - plenty of bench space and spacious bathroom with plenty of Bench too. Would stay there again - tariff was good - is on the western outskirts of town and parking is directly outside your room - a long way to “walk” into town - you basically need a car."
