Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Our room was large and quiet. The bed was comfortable. Parking was easy. There is a very nice beach walk just below the hotel. Staff communication before we arrived was good via text. A few heads up for N American visitors: There is a labor shortage in Tasmania, as in much of Australia. Front desk coverage is very limited. Don't expect someone to be there to answer questions after 5 p.m. This motel is more like an Airbnb where you don't see staff. Be sure to ask for the WiFi password, ice, or anything else you might want before you get there. There is no staff available after 5 pm unless your hair is on fire.

Excellent family-owned property, nicely renovated and decorated, obviously great care is taken to manage the overall guest experience experience. Attention to detail. Loved reading the guest information booklet with added humourous sections about Tasmania and Aussie culture.

Nothing overly special about the motel itself, but the view from the room and the closeness to the water makes it an absolute pleasure to be there.

Amazing location with uninterrupted views of the bay. Happy to sit on the balcony and watch the day pass by. Great location easy walk to town facilities. Only a 45 minute drive to Coles Bay. Prefer to pay less for my accommodation and more for experiences in the area. Happy to recommend Swansea Motor Inn

Lovely ocean front view and balcony off room. We were placed in one of the older style rooms so not modern and bathroom very small and dated but otherwise a lovely space. Perfect for night stay passing through.
