Dear Guest, We are sorry to hear that your stay at the Great Eastern Motor Lodge was not a pleasant one. Once it was reported that you were bitten by insects in the room, we engaged trained pest controllers to investigate. Be assured that a thorough inspection was carried out and there were no signs of bed bugs. As part... More

We stayed in a two-bedroomed suite, with kitchenette for 5 of us, on our arrival in Perth and the night before departure from Perth. We were perfectly happy with our suite, the kitchen was very good, sitting room very good and the beds clean and comfortable. The bathroom was huge, a two-sink affair. Staff very helpful and pleasant. The pool... More

Stayed here on Business and was organized through work, big rooms are ok but no meals, you need to order breakfast the night before, heard other room doors opening and closing all night, very overpriced for what you get but handy to city and airport

Have stayed here quite a few times overnighting through Perth and that's about all I'd want to do here. No restaurant, dated rooms, noisy but alas....a nice pool. Place is expensive for what you get but with a shortage of beds in Perth, it's not surprising.

The only good thing is the staff. They are friendly and helpful - that's about it. I wouldn't give this hotel even 2 stars. Dirty, shabby and smelly. My room during my stay of 2 weeks hasn't been cleaned. When I arrived there were pieces of broken glasses in the corner of the bathroom, they were still there when I... More

This motel has big rooms and is often booked out. Perth is seriously under supplied with hotel-motel accommodation so rates are through the roof and service is non existent. Rates are high in Perth, supply and demand. The rate I paid was $185/night. If this motel were in the eastern states the rate for this room standard would be under... More

My rating here is related to other Perth experiences, which is fair as Perth is a bit of a unique situation. It may not be cheap, but this is Perth. It may not sparkle, but Perth has two of the three worst motels I've stayed in (3rd was in Cambodia) The pity is that you'd think such a big place... More

A disappointment, the rooms are large but basic. The furniture is average, the showers are built for midgets with the shower head at chest height. From the outside the Lodge looked promising, on check in the desk staff were welcoming and freindly. Thre rooms tend to be noisy from adjoining rooms and people out on the balcony smoking and shouting.... More
