Left Within Minutes – Do Not Book the Blue Whale Motor Inn I booked into the Blue Whale Motor Inn in Warrnambool, walked into the room... and walked straight back out. That was enough. The room was unclean, the carpet sticky, the air reeking of cheap air freshener trying (and failing) to cover something worse. The bed looked like it had been made by a toddler, and the curtains didn’t even match across the room. Add to that the constant road noise, and it was clear this was not a place where anyone should expect rest, comfort, or even basic hygiene. What really gets me is the price – $150 for a room that isn’t fit for purpose. For that same money, I found another local hotel nearby that actually understood the basics: cleanliness, quiet, professionalism, and customer service. The reception was also telling — no local maps, no information, just a hollow, soulless front desk that mirrors the whole experience. And the manager? Rude, defensive, and completely unwilling to engage. Let’s just say hospitality is not in his skill set. The man has the energy of a bad hair transplant and the charm of a traffic fine. I didn’t stay the night — I couldn’t. I left and considered the $150 a payment to escape a grim experience. My advice? Don’t become a victim. There are better, cleaner, and friendlier places in Warrnambool. This isn’t one of them.

Excelkent location for our needs, and nicely renovated rooms BUT let down by the neighbours dogs that are at the rear of the property barking continuously 😖 Parking is tight but overall we had a good experience. Very helpful staff etc. and clean rooms.
