Hotel Bellum Hotel

Riddoch Highway, 5291 Mount Schank, Australia –

For the price, you can't go wrong. I was on a motorcycle trip so having the bar and restaurant onsite was great.

Chris, United States of America

The bed sheets and quilt cover should be more better condition... they’re old dark and colour faded. :((( The shower water is slow and cold 🥶 in between shower.

Xiao, Australia

Very Aussie. In the evening, lots of workers rolled in for a drink and families came in for dinner. Highly recommend. Good value for money.

Wang, Australia

It was quite disgusting. Rooms were dirty. No cleaners. Rats poo in sleeping area. Quite horrible

Mark, Australia

The meal which was served was excellent, huge and excellent value as were the drinks, the pub was an old time friendly pub with good conversation from the bar staff. The room was old style but the bed was comfortable. The kettle and fridge are located outside in the foyer.

Jeff, Australia

Great Value for money, we will definitely be back. Small room but it slept the 5 of us an we were happy, we only needed it for sleeping an showering as we spent our days out exploring, the rooms are very clean, comfy beds, lovely friendly staff. Wish we were staying longer. Great big pub meals too. Nice an close back to Mount Gambier or go the other way to Port MacDonnal, close to the Little Blue Lake an Mount Schank, ( worth the climb to the top ) an Ewen Ponds looks magical, next time we will snorkel them. Cya when we come back Bellum Hotel 😊

Tammy, Australia

Friendly staff sorted out the issue (power supply) promptly

Say, Australia

Cannot say I liked anything there apart from the staff. They were very polite and helpful

Vicki, Australia

There is a restaurant/pub attached. The bed was comfortable and the accommodation was clean and there were 2 heaters in the room. The food was normal pub food. There is also a salad bar but they didn't tell us about it and its tucked away where you don't see it. The locals all know where it is of course. They have schitnel nights for $14 per meal some days during the week.

Didn't get the room I booked and paid for - was supposed to get family studio to sleep five and we were put in a three bed room, staff didn't introduce themselves, room was unclean - quilt had stains from previous occupants, 3 red back spiders, cobwebs, cups unclean, noisy, had to share fridge, kettle (which was dirty), etc in common outdoor patio area, which is not how the room facilities were advertised when booking, can hear everyone outside in common patio area and the traffic going past all night. Didn't eat at restaurant as prices were too high. Really disappointing.

I must admit I would have liked to have had air conditioning and expected it but on checking the booking it wasn't advertised as such hence my fault for not checking.

1 occasion there was a worker smoking in the crt yard between the hotel and our room, I know that's probably where they have their break, but the smell drifted into our room an wasn't very pleasant.
Great Value for money, we will definitely be back.

Booked the family room with bunks but the ladder on the bunk bed was broken. Staff didnt seem to know where to find the online bookings so check in took a bit longer. Menu was a tad overpriced in my opinion.
Typical good pub food.

There could be more blankets and an electric blanket on the bed would have been good. This hotel is right on main road so there is a lot of traffic noise of cars and trucks going past, but we did sleep well.
