Had a one night stay in a family room and although the motel is old and showing it we had a pleasant stay there. The checkin lady was nice and friendly and the hotel gives guest a complimentary small bottle of Red Wine, A small packet of chips and two kit kats which was a nice touch. Resturant food was good.

Lovely welcome on arrival. Complimentary wine, chips, chocolate and water on arrival. Lovely outdoor area by pool for dining alfresco. Menu looked very nice and though we didn't use the restaurant it was very busy so must be good. Recommend to all travelling to Port Pirie.

Comfort plus

Travelled from Port Lincoln as a road trip holiday. Room was extra large, spar bath & private patio. Complimentary bottle of wine & nibbles. Dinner in the dining room was extremely good. Great lamb shank with parsnips!! Friendly staff. Decor was a bit tired but with a comfortable bed & all the other positives we would stay there again & strongly recommended as a great stay.

Nice place

A nice room, comfortable stay. Surprised that there were no plates or cutlery, but there was a teaspoon we were able to use. Air conditioning was excellent. Nice to find a tray of “goodies” in our room for our benefit, a thoughtful touch.
