Beechworth Carriage Motor Inn

Whilst this is a basic one level motel, so much has been done to create an appealing stay. It is well appointed and electric blankets were a welcome addition. Good quality bedding and linen. Clean and fresh. The manager/owner was very helpful and pleasant. It was an easy walk to the main street, eateries, bakery, shops. Convenient to have the car at the door.

Very disappointing uncooperative Owner/Manager. After we extended our booking to stay a second night our room was not cleaned during the first day. The Owner at first said we had told his staff not to clean it ( not true) and refused to clean it himself although he had been assisting his staff in cleaning that morning. Later he changed and said his staff had got the rooms mixed up but he still refused to clean . His attitude spoiled our time in Beechworth where we found everyone else pleasant and helpful

Perfectly located within a short stroll to Beechworth’s historical landmarks, choice of pubs, famous Beechworth bakery and Main Street. Hotel check-in was early and appreciated. Parking was at the door, no stairs. Room is dated but clean and, despite being rather overpriced, small hotel items like tissues, sanitary bag, shower cap, conditioner, water bottles were not available. There was a coffee pod machine though. To have a shower, a sign reads to let the basin tap run until hot, then open the shower. Such a lengthy and incredible waste of water before the water ran hot! Laundry facilities were available to guests if required. Overall, accommodation is just satisfactory taking into account its price. It still comes down to its ideal location.

The positives are the motel was conveniently situated. A guest laundry was very much appreciated. Staff were nice. Room had a ceiling fan. Negatives were the room were so dark and dreary and quite small. A very uncomfortable bed meant poor sleep quality.

Unfortunately we could only stay one night but would have been very happy to stay longer. The room was spotless, warm and comfortable and the location is ideal. There are plenty of interesting places to eat nearby.

We stayed 1 night here. When we arrived, there was a corridor full of leaves - which could have been swept prior to our arrival - it looked like the outdoor area had not been tidied. Only 1 bedside table in the room for the main bed, and mis-matched and dated furniture in the room. The bathroom had a very high ceiling and was cold. The room was clean and quiet, and within easy walking distance to shops and restaurants.

Top location, easy 100m walk to to Beechworth's main street, restaurants, pub, shopping and attractions. Comfortable quiet room, ample parking. Good value at $165 p/n and Brian was a friendly, efficent host.

Great location to be able to walk to hotels and resteraunts. Friendly check in ,however the room we stayed in was tired. Bed needs updating. Small touches like no tissues. Shower water hard to regulate. They dont replace tea coffee etc unless you specifically ask. They dont remake beds or refresh room if staying two nights. I guess it is rated as three star and that's probably accurate. Priced accordingly. So in fairness are got what we paid for.

The Carriage Motor Inn is a traditional Aussie motel with parking outside the bedrooms and doesn’t win any prizes for contributing to Beechworth’s heritage atmosphere. But its position is central, with all of the town’s fine historic centre and dining options within easy walking distance. My room was large and comfortable, sleeping four (double bed + two singles). Very quiet. It gets a big gold star for offering use of a washing machine ($4) and dryer (free).
