This motel was lovely. Quiet with easy parking and very convenient to shops and some eateries, or a short drive to the Tavern that has a great Wednesday night Parmy and Pot special. Rooms that overlook the water are an option that would be lovely. Would definately recommend a stay if passing through.

Staff were lovely. Sleeping area good. Great view of the ocean. Only issues were the bathroom. Had to use the sink to get water or rinse dishes. The sink drain was blocked and took 5-10 mins to drain. Happened immediately while just running the tap so it was a big problem for brushing teeth or even washing hands. Management aware of issue and it was temporary but very unpleasant for us.

The room was spacious, comfortable and a wonderful view of the bay. The private outside verandah with a table and chairs was terrific. Having a microwave in the room was very useful and quite uncommon in motels.
My only criticism is that you have to use stairs to access all rooms, albeit only 6 stairs to the downstair rooms.

We loved our room (spacious) and more especially the sea views. For the 4 days we were there, we ran out of sugar & coffee. Apart from that all was good.

All good except the musty odour.

Neat and tidy older style accommodation in a central location. The only negative was a strong and persistent musty odour.

Great views and location with friendly and helpful staff. Room we had was a bit old and dated - commensurate with cost I guess. Check before you book. They have newer accomodation for extra cost if that suits you better.

This property was clean, but old. No A/C only a window at front door, which I felt a little unsafe to leave open all night. The bed was super comfortable as well as pillows.Shower was over bath with shower curtain. For the money, felt it was a little dear. Lovely area, right on the water.

Room was clean and tidy. Not sure why there was a mirror where I thought the tellie should have been. They mentioned a cleaning fee might be applied if the room was un-tidy or dishes not washed. Bit hard to wash dishes when there is no washing up liquid. Over all a pleasant stay.

A very dated room though bed was clean and comfortable. Room had a strange smell about it, like it had been painted recently , which I found unpleasant. Bathroom was very small with hardly any space to move around. Served our purpose well.

Our room was large and quiet. The bed was comfortable. Parking was easy. There is a very nice beach walk just below the hotel. Staff communication before we arrived was good via text.

A few heads up for N American visitors: There is a labor shortage in Tasmania, as in much of Australia. Front desk coverage is very limited. Don't expect someone to be there to answer questions after 5 p.m. This motel is more like an Airbnb where you don't see staff. Be sure to ask for the WiFi password, ice, or anything else you might want before you get there. There is no staff available after 5 pm unless your hair is on fire.

Amazing location with uninterrupted views of the bay. Happy to sit on the balcony and watch the day pass by. Great location easy walk to town facilities. Only a 45 minute drive to Coles Bay. Prefer to pay less for my accommodation and more for experiences in the area. Happy to recommend Swansea Motor Inn
