This out 3rd stay over many years at Motel Marengo. It is always clean and the staff have always been helpful. It is well situated, in that it is close to Apollo Bay and the Otways and only a couple of hours from the 12 Apostles. Perfect for a short break.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
One of the best motels we have ever been. The reception and management were most friendly and kind. Very generous. The pool and spa was amazing, and just a walking distance from the beach. Things that can improve is clothing line (possibly?), refill toilet papers esp for long staying guests, uncover the spa during the opening hours.

The beds were very comfortable, and everything was extremely clean. The shower was fantastic with great pressure and heaps of hot water. For basic accommodation, it was far better than we were expecting. We would happily stay again.

Booked a stay during the middle of June for work. Room was decent overall but the lack of some soundproofing did hampen the evening. Will definitely return again.

Marengo motel

Nice people- Small, adequate roadside motel with necessary basics & up the hill from the seashore and dining in Apollo Bay. Though we used the spa, we were not sure the chemicals were balanced in it or the pool. They had to turn on the heat for the spa and wait 2 hrs when we asked about using it. We book places w spa/pool and use them. They should be ready to use and well maintained if they are going to advertise them for people looking to reserve. Enjoyed playing in nearby tide pools at low tide upon our arrival!

Basic accommodation

Very basic accommodation. We loved Marengo, but not so much the Marengo hotel. Needs updating - compared to what we’ve stayed in on our trip on the Great Ocean Road. Extremely thin walls and very noisy.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Bathroom very outdated and small for a family for the price. The bathroom door squeaked and heated blankets on kids bed’s didn’t work. Not the cleanest, My daughter was playing and found an empty wine bottle under the bed which was a bit concerning! For the price it seemed a bit outdated and didn’t deliver.

My partner and I had a lovely stay at Motel Marengo. It was just outside of Apollo Bay so we avoided all the hussle and bussle and the room was spacious, clean and all we needed for a nights stay. Would stay again.
