Mitchell River Tavern, hotel in Bairnsdale

Located in Bairnsdale, a 10-minute walk from Bairnsdale Train Station, Mitchell River Tavern has accommodations with a terrace, free private parking, a restaurant and a bar.

- staff were so friendly and welcoming - room was very clean - bathroom nice, spacious and clean - the bistro was convenient. Was here for work. Went downstairs for lunch then went back up to my room to rest. The food was delicious, served quickly, and reasonably priced - beds and pillows were pretty comfortable - price was okay - I travelled solo and so the room was the perfect size. It felt a lot cosier. Might feel a bit too small and restricted if travelling with another person - would definitely stay again

    Bairnsdale is a large country town.

    Bairnsdale is a large country town. The Catholic Church as you you enter from the Melbourne side on the left is definitely worth a visit. A volunteer is available and has a wealth of information in relation to the church and history of the area. Not to be missed. There are plenty of shops, the Potted Pear, gift wares, is great. There are museums, historical and Aboriginal. Bairnsdale is a lovely place for a day visit.

    Typical Australian town which is busy during the day and completely dead at night. Felt quite safe to walk around early evening but can't comment on late evening.All usual shops available. We ate at the Cow & Fish Pub which was excellent for food but lacked soft furnishings in the dining area. Felt it was a bit like a social club rather than a hotel/restaurant. Very convenient for us as travelling down to Paynesville and Lakes Entrance which is only a 25 minute drive away. Also played golf at Metung Country Club which was excellent including lunch at the club house.

    Our stay was way too short.

    Our stay was way too short. Bairnsdale allows you the perfect location to explore the region. You have to try the Thai restaurant Cinnamon, it was amazing and the flavours are on point. We ventured to Metung and Lakes Entrance and could have easily done multiple days at both locations.

    Apple Maps was confused/confusing about cemetery location.

    Apple Maps was confused/confusing about cemetery location. Not fun on foot! Luckily the locals were super kind. Info centre: friendly and knowledgeable Beautiful Catholic Church. Pleasant library. Nice CBD to walk around - houses, trees Loved my walk by the river and seeing the bats!

    RSL served us the wrong order steak that was boot leather.

    RSL served us the wrong order steak that was boot leather. surrounding cafes served overpriced meals. A lot of foot traffic around left us not leaving doors unlocked. We used it as a destination for the hotel. And that is where it ended. however we only stayed one night.

    The hosts are lovely and friendly but respect privacy and will only interact as much as you initiate, they are very helpful if you need assistance with anything whatsoever. The garden apartment is very comfortable. The breakfast provisions are generous and lovely. The garden is beautiful to observe and wake up to. Bairnsdale is a great town with lots to do and enjoy. Lots of relaxing fishing spots or walks. The hosts provide a room service each day, refilling supplies, making the bed and tidying up. Thank you.

    This boutique hotel was well appointed and in a great location. Everything was taken care of in the room presentation. Our room was a standard size with a large double bed, and a continental breakfast was included in our price. A good range of breakfast items were presented. Check-in instructions were completed via phone messaging. The instructions were very clear and there were no problems. Off-street parking is provided, and signage to rooms is clear.

    Everything, from the moment we arrived, we felt so welcomed. The room was amazing, so beautifully decorated, clean, new, and fresh. Massive bath towels, great channel selection, very comfy bed. We had dinner in the hotel restaurant, which was beautiful. The staff made us feel so welcome. The food was delicious. Absolutely nothing negative to say. Highly recommend and will definitely stay again. Thankyou ☺️

    The Bairnsdale Motel was excellent - clean, comfy, relaxing and well appointed. There was everything we needed in the King Spa room and the bed was really comfortable. The room was spacious and very clean, the bathroom was large and easy to use (room to put toiletries, shaving kit, etc.) and the minibar well stocked. There was breakfast available and the staff were friendly and helpful.

    I was staying at the Colonial Motor Inn when Victoria was sent into lockdown. I was not sure if I should stay the night or rush home to regional Victoria. The receptionist was excellent and able to answer all my questions. When I left the motel on the following morning the receptionist gave me a print out of the rules regarding travel when in lockdown.

    The manager was friendly, helpful, and obliging. The Motel was quiet, despite being central to the main town of Bairnsdale. The Motel is old, but relatively clean and all facilities were in working order. The fridge and freezer in particular, was perfect. The bed was firm and comfortable. I felt safe and secure in the motel room I stayed in.

    Cheap, clean, good shower and bathroom. Comfy bed. Great ceiling fan and opened windows. Little fridge has freezer section. Toaster, kettle, coffee, tea etc. Would stay again. Love this style of motel as I can park directly outside my room. Easy to find.

    Nothing. The staff member at the office was incredibly inappropriately rude asking me why I was making a booking if I live in Bairnsdale. People don’t just book accommodation for work although I am only working here, I still would like to see family.

    Every time we stay in Bairnsdale, we stay here. I couldn’t fault the room. It’s always clean, the beds are comfy, the parking is close by, and it’s reasonably priced. It is also central to town. Really enjoyed our stay 😊
