Hotels Near Port Broughton Tourist Park in Port Pirie

Vanessa and Vicki and all staff provided the best service, the Motel was very clean, bed comfortable, fridge meant we could have some fresh fruit. Restaurant attached to the Motel is first class, breakfast was delicious and the evening menu provided choice for special diets and the food was just superb. We were able to go for walks early morning and late afternoon, the town just a short walk. Thank you keeping 15 people for a 6 night booking could have been a mixed review, we all agreed we had picked well.

Searching for a unique bakery we found the Old Bakery Stone Hut on line. So on our way back from Quorn on our way to Adelaide we stopped to try one of their famous wild boar pies. Sadly they didn't have any of that particular pie that day but they did have a number of others to choose from. I then decided that it was about time that I tried Kangaroo so I went for it and had a Kangaroo and red wine pie. My wife had a******** and stout pie which I also sampled. We each had a coffee since we were going to be on the road for still a few hours. Suffice to say everything was excellent and we will be returning the next time we are in the area.

Upon arrival we discover that the motel has a faceless and remote checkin. You enter the unmanned reception area to come face to face with a person in another country on a video screen, looking surprised at our arrival. No hotel staff to be seen. An immediate worry. She assumed that a text message sent whilst we were driving (at this point unopened as it resembled spam) was enough explanation to get us settled into our room. She kindly spat out of a copier (luckily it had paper) the information we required for our stay. As we made our way up the stairs to our room, there was an occupational health and safety issue that required immediate attention. I went back into robot land to report the issue. She explained that there will not be anyone on site until the next day and that nothing could be done! I remedied the situation myself to save the owners from a possible lawsuit. Once we navigated our way inside the unit, it was small and functional but unclean, with former dispensers still installed but since abolished, and dirty soft furnishings. To their credit there was adequate supply of extras in the fridge and kitchen and bathroom, and a lovely new floating floorboard in the main room. We had had a huge day driving and a nine hour drive the next day. Our night was a disaster - the neighbouring customer of our room played loud music and then tv, interspersed with loud bouts of prolonged coughing throughout the entire evening. The motel is on a noisy main road as well. Other accomodation we have stayed in gives one an opportunity to voice a complaint that will be quickly addressed because the owners ARE ON SITE! In this location, we had no one to discuss issues with, give local advice/directions/info. Just a cold wooden person with no interest in your well being, on the other side of the world. I guess this is what budget motel is - pay peanuts, get monkeys.

staff are amazing, especially the breakfast staff. So polite and helpful. Rooms are cleaned every day. Microwave and bar fridge in room, great shower great water pressure, air con/heater works great, small table with 2 seats also in room a double couch. Room service available, and staff who deliver are friendly. I felt safe as a single female staying here ,parking in sight from your room, shopping center within a 1 minute walk from here, taxis are available just outside the venue. Would defiantly recommend staying here.
