What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“So comfortable and just a beautiful room... and the pub across the road was wonderful for dinner.”
“Absolute gem of a motel. Room was amazing, clean, spacious, comfy, quiet. Nice walk to main shops in area (maybe not if you are mobility challenged) and perfect A1 service. Not only would I recommend, I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again!”
“Absolutely beautiful little hotel. Rooms are perfectly sized and styled with a large clean shower and bathroom. The bed was so comfortable and the use bamboo sheets. When we arrived, the heater had been turned on for us with soft music playing on the tv and complimentary snacks. Directly across from the Farmers Arms. Highly recommended.”
“What a fantastic little property! Our unit had the most amazingly comfortable king bed, the couch was beautiful, the bathroom was big and bright with fantastic shower pressure. The room had mugs, plates, cutlery and a microwave! We were sorry we didn’t stay more than 1 night. I don’t know for long ago these rooms were renovated but the decor and the bathrooms are so lovely. Well done! We got a message when our room was available to check in and that had a code for the lock box attached to the room door. The lock box housed our room key.”
“The art motel was fabulous. It's well located in Daylesford, just a hop and skip to the shops. Gentle music playing as we opened the door. The beautiful room/bathroom, complimentary mini bar, good wifi and coffee pod machine were just some of the nice things about this place.”
“Delightful stay at Daylesford Art Motel and highly recommend it. The accommodation was cozy and quiet, providing a peaceful retreat just minutes from the town center. It was also very easy to access, with convenient parking and a great location for exploring the area. The room was well-serviced, clean, and thoughtfully decorated with art, adding a nice touch to the atmosphere. The staff were attentive to ensure a smooth and comfortable stay. A relaxing getaway.”
