Top hotels in North Geelong
Sphinx Hotel Motel
Nice receptionist. The place needs some TLC everywhere you look. The room was ok if you’re just looking for somewhere to sleep, but that wouldn’t be after sunrise as the curtains were useless! Patrons at the restaurant or casino parked where they wanted and took the accommodation parking.

Rydges Geelong
Couldn't fault the staff, cleanliness or amenities. For the price, it's a great value option. The parking charge is too steep but it's possible to free-park on the street only a few hundred metres away.

Location to local sites within walking distance . Rooms small & no comfortable chair. Lots of steps & no lift . Staff helpful. Limited parking near rooms . Pool small . Noisy outside doors to carpark made room shake

The Sands Torquay
Spatious room, some outdoor space. It was a ground floor room so it was unfortunate that the 'golf view' was obstructed by trees and bushes but this did mean more privacy when outside.
