About this place Gateway Hotel

Gateway Hotel is a mainstream hotel on the Princes Highway in Corio, on Geelong's northern edge. It is listed as gay-friendly; it is not a gay venue. Its position suits drivers coming from Melbourne or heading to the Bellarine Peninsula and the Great Ocean Road, but central Geelong and its waterfront are about 10 km south, so you will want a car. Reviews are solid at 4.3 from about 840 guests. Check the website for current room options and dining hours.

We visited 10/6 with people with special needs. The female staff member at the service desk was very accommodating to our needs and went out of her way to help us. The meal was fabulous, we can highly recommend, thank you

Thankyou Andrew and Kath!!!! Travelling from QLD, our room wasn’t quite ready, but you accommodated us with hot chocolates for the kids, and some great convo while we waited. Working for ALH Hotels, I Thankyou for making my family feel welcome and warm after a long trip. Not everything can always be smooth sailing! But having kindness goes along way!!’

Worst service l have ever seen. They are more intent on getting little pedantic jobs done than giving service to the customer . Was rude and when asked for service was told l was rude and starting trouble because l waited twenty minutes and there where four people waiting . I can't believe they have any standard here at all . definitely a local place that accepts bad service .
