Hotels Near Beechworth Telegraph Station in Beechworth

Our stay was comfortable, warm and met our needs while we were in town to visit a terminally ill relative in hospital. Website room rates are lower than what the staff in reception will charge you on check-in - if you plan to stay at this property, suggest booking and paying online to ensure you are charged the advertised rate. When we politely approached reception to first query our charge, then provide feedback to the staff that there were demonstrable discrepancies between website advertised rates and those charged at check-in, staff became aggressive and accused us outright of lying. To this day, the online Saturday night rate that staff claimed categorically would never be available online, remains available to book online at the rate that we advised them. We have since attempted to contact this business twice in writing with indisputable proof that the feedback we provided is true and accurate - we are still waiting for a response but we don’t expect one based on our experience with how this business operates. We are acutely aware of the challenges faced by tourism and hospitality businesses due to the pandemic, and politely approached this business to query what we believed was an error on our bill; when staff categorically rejected this, we asked that our feedback be captured that website rates are lower than rates charged in reception, in the interests of that business avoiding potential issues with ugly customers (which we were not). Their response was absolutely disgraceful, such aggression and abuse should never be directed at customers nor staff in this situation. We will not be back - we don’t give repeat business to dishonest and abusive businesses.

Pros; clean and comfortable, could park right outside your room, usb charging slots at the base of the bedside lamps, Kayo & Netflix available for streaming (if you've an account), reasonably spacious. Walked (＜15min) into town for dinner, but rode our bikes into town for b'fast. COVID check-in/out procedures were straight forward. My only suggestion is that the cleaners use a less perfumed cleaner/disinfectant - I suppose it immediately tells you the room has been cleaned, but it's pretty pungent. A bit pricey for a motel, but Beechworth is pretty touristy and pricing was comparable to similar accommodation at the time.

A weekend around Myrtleford and Bright, in stunning Autumnal sunshine was just the break needed. Motel on Alpine, conveniently located right next door to the Savoy Club for dinner, was the perfect place to put the head down. The room was modern, spotlessly clean, quiet and the mattress was better than I have experienced in some five star capital cities. When I need a mountains refresh again, i will welcome myself back to this great home away from home.

Unfortunately there is something not right about the feel of this hotel. Feels like a bunker, a bit cold and sterile ,lacking any warmth. Bare walls down the main hall don't help. Our room was odd, in so far ,as it had a large bracket on the wall for no discernible reason, and one light, very high on the wall, attached to a blue tooth speaker? The TV had a volume limit of 11 and if you had the heater on it was useless. The staff are friendly, but for the most part the restaurant people lack confidence and need more training. Food was excellent, with both dinner & breakfast being of a high standard with the exceptional of the deserts. Shockers ! Unfortunately we wouldn't stay here again.
