We are taking great care to ensure the Gariwerd Motel is a clean, hygienic and safe place to stay. We are following the best available advice to ensure that rooms are disinfected prior to use by new guests. We use an alcohol-based cleaning solution (mostly methylated spirits); paying close attention to frequently used surfaces such as door knobs, benchtops, light switches; and of course, lots of hand washing.
We've decided to put a hold on our delicious buffet breakfast for the moment. Buffets are a risky proposition at a time like this, so keep this in mind when planning a visit. And we moved to a contactless check-in model. You'll be notified by text message of your room details, and you can by-pass reception and go straight to your room.

Perfect for the traveller who likes to save money but wants a really clean room with the basics! These rooms are at the front of the motel, and are road facing (but don't worry, there's not a lot of traffic in Halls Gap). Halls Gap is beautiful and quiet and you have a tree filled view when you stay in this room.
Arrive at the Gariwerd Motel in Halls Gap at your leisure and enjoy the wonders of the Grampians. Whether it be a drive to check out the waterfalls and lakes, or a small walk or long hike, the Grampians offers something for everyone. Check out this website for ideas on what to do. Day 2. In the morning Grampians Wine Tours will take you to visit the amazing Silo Art Trail in Western Victoria.
Thanks for considering the Gariwerd Motel for your visit to the beautiful Grampians. I've learned a lot over those years, but mostly what I've learned is that I love this place, and I hope to get the chance to share it with you. Our approach is simple: a friendly greeting, clean rooms, comfy beds, and as much help as you need to make the most of your time here.
We are more than a little bit thrilled to tell you that we had a very successful night at the Grampians Pyrenees Business Awards. We were finalists in the Best Tourism Business category, our wonderful head cleaner Sandra won Employee of the Year, and we won the People's Choice Award! Thank you so very much to everyone who voted for us.
We are very pleased to announce that we have qualified as part of TripAdvisor's Green Leaders Program. Here are some of the things we have done to achieve this recognition. Step 1 was switching energy providers. We chose Momentum Energy because they are a 100% Australian Owned renewable energy company (owned by Hydro Tasmania).

Motel' s location is good, close to restaurants and a grocery store(the only store in the town I guess). Although building is old and bathrooms need some renovation but room size is decent and has all basic amenities like mini fridge microwave, basic cutlery toaster ,tea,coffee amd sugar etc.
Theanager Kelly was very courteous and helpful. She gave us a map of local area which was useful, Google map is not too reliable at times.
She made sure we were comfortable.
We had a great time here. Our stay was pleasant and comfortable.

Just spent the weekend at this place and owner Tony was so rude he tried treating us like little kids told us at 9pm to turn music down which wasnt very loud to start with because he didn't like it and it clearly states in the terms and conditions that noise is to be ceased at 10pm. had a problem with parking cause another person staying couldn't park infront of there room although there is no allicocated parking spots...Tony had also asked other members staying there if they had any problems with a certain room trying to make up stories about them not knowing that these people were our friends

I stayed here for 2 nights recently. The high rating and good reviews made me have better expectations than what I actually experienced. Let's talk about the good part first.
I liked that we could park our car right in front of our room's entrance door. Other than the tv, fridge, kettle and tea stuff, there was a toaster and microwave available as well which usually are not provided unless you book cabins or suites so that was a plus point. Room was spacious enough as well and the bed had electric blanket on it which is a blessing on cold nights.
Now the disappointing part, there were a lot of

Fantastic location and even better customer service. The room was well maintained & clean and had a heater, heated blankets, TV, fridge and wine glasses for a cheeky wine after a long hike. What really made my stay above & beyond was the staff member I encountered when having a look at the DVDs I could borrow. She was able to let me know of hiking trails that would allow my to see wildflowers in bloom and welcomed me to borrow many flora ID books to use during my stay! She was so knowledgeable and friendly, that I would come back and stay in a heartbeat!

Anyone here that has experience emotional heartbreak will understand how i feel and will understand how i went to any length to get the love of my life back up until i met the great prophet it all felt impossible and i have begin to lose hope on getting Sharon back cause she left and told me she never wanted to see me again in his life and i have… been the witch behind his lack of progress and he cant progress in life. but after meeting with the great prophet prince he gave me my husband back something i never felt was possible anymore and i ave become a laughing stock to everyone at home

Beautiful location at the bottom of the Grampians and within 5 minutes walk into town for a delicious ice cream. Lovely surroundings with kangaroos and lots of birds. We loved everything about our stay here and would recommend it to other travellers. So much to see and do with a comfortable bed and hot shower.

My first trip outside Melbourne after lock down was to Gariwerd motel and it was fantastic. They have such an easy check in/out system in line with social distancing requirements. The room was spotless, large, and comfortable with good amenities. A nice outdoor area with BBQs and tables. Walking distance to the cafes and swimming pool. Will definitely be staying here again! Thank you!
