Room was very sizeable and cozy for a night stay, parking was not bad, could park right out the room, the receptionist was so wonderful to speak to and very helpful. Would stay again.
Lin
Clean and comfortable
Stephen
We would recommend this hotel, the only issue was the door didnt lock, and I could not find any staff to alert?
Doni
Manager was friendly and helpful. Room was very clean, neat and had everything I needed. They take pride in how they present their rooms and it shows. Bed was comfortable, and had electric blanket.
Nice greenery view outside, and in warmer weather would be nice to sit out and eat as they provide outdoor furniture too. Well maintained place. Will definitely come back. Thank you

Marisol
Room was big, but still cozy. Had all the essentials. Plenty of parking and a close walk to the shops and RSL. We had a lovely stay
Manhua Nikki
Just stay one night. Nothing particular.
Darren
I loved my stay at the Arthur Phillip Motor Inn! It's clean and only about a 15 minute walk to Cowes. The bus stop is a 3 minute walk away. I had no car but I had no issues going to where I wanted to go as long as I worked around the bus schedules. I was able to see the Penguin Parade, the Seal cruise, Smiths Beach, and the Koala Conservation Reserve. The owner was the nicest guy! He gave me some sunflower seeds and these colorful birds (rainbow lorikeets) came and ate them straight out of my hand!
The birds can tweet rather loudly, so bring a white noise machine or noise cancelling headphones if that bothers you, but for the price, you'll be hard pressed to find a better place than this.

Great location, excellent clean units.
Guy
The room was clean and the person at the lobby was helpful and very nice.
Ailsa
The room was spacious. The bed comfortable and the sheets felt great. It was about a 15 minute walk to the shops and restaurants. The parking was safe and secure.
Louise
Clean but very dated and shabby.
Mark
Perfect accommodation for my track day at Phillip Island. Only a 10min drive from the track and an easy 5 minute walk into town for dinner. I had my bike parked right out the front of my room which made packing, unpacking and bike prep a breeze. The staff were absolutely lovely! Couldn’t be happier with my stay.
Courtney
The room was absolutely spotless, had everything you needed ie mini fridge, plenty of shelving, dining room table and lounge suite. The room was also really well laid out - the spa bath is in the main room with the bedroom but there is a separate bathroom which contains the toilet and shower allowing privacy. In a great location - not in the centre of Phillip Island so can avoid the traffic when it builds up but still in walking distance from lots of places to eat. The staff were very friendly and the spa bath was such a luxury.
John
Great staff. Terrific room, very clean with good amenities
John
Nice large and clean room, however the shower base and spa bath base are worn and could do with being refurbished.

Everything was excellent except there was no house keeping done during our 2nights 3days stay. May be because it was public holidays, not sure

Just one night for a track ride day, but the room was huge and easy to check in and check out.
Isobel
On the tired side but did enjoy the spa bath.
Rachel
Clean room, friendly staff at check in, advertised here as being a 15 min walk to the penguin parade- this is incorrect. It is more like a 15 min drive. No hotels are walking distance to the penguins.
Tina
Great location, easy parking, comfortable and spacious room. Could do with a little modernisation but it was a great price, so can be forgiven!

Edmund
Affordable, simple and straightforward motel-type accommodation with a touch of comfort and congeniality in the heart of Phillip Island; property is a short drive to the Esplanade, the Penguin Parade, Churchill Island and other places of interest on the island; Pauline welcomed us warmly and facilitated a stress-free check-in; clean and spacious queen room with spa bath; basic amenities but provided in abundance including fresh towels on a daily basis; we enjoyed our 3 nights stay; I will stay here again if I am on the island again in the future!
Stephen
This was the worst of a number of properties we have stayed at in Phillip Island.
The Hosts on arrival did not show us how to access power or wi fi codes or wish us a nice stay.
The reception area supposed to be open 9 to 5 pm but was constantly shut during these times.
The most annoying thing however was the water pressure for showers in dribbles out only have never seen as bad.
I have never given a review before and due to lack of being able to have a shower we actually left a day early.
All our friends will be made aware of our experience.

This was a great safe location for me to have a toddler and child by myself. I felt comfortable going in and out and the carpark was convenient to the room door which made it easy with the toddler. There was more room than I expected and the staff were lovely. Very clean and comfortable. I would stay here again.

2nd time staying here. Rooms are nice and big, and the spa is nice too. No washing liquid for the dishes though. Handily close to the GP circuit so if you are planning a track day it's a handy spot, and right on the outskirts of Cowes so not far to go for shopping or meals.

Lovely place to stay at
Rooms are a decent size and the complimentary water and chocolate are a nice touch. Walking distance to the RSL which is great
