Located at 68 High St Belmont,you will find the best budget friendly motel in Geelong..the Parkside motel. Rooms are immaculate with the basic appliances to make your stay that little more comfy. With a major supermarket across the road and an array of shops,cafes and restaurants nearby,all within walking distance. However the biggest asset the Parkside motel has are the managers..Corey and Em. From day one they have just been absolutely amazing. Nothing at all is too much trouble and with their friendly attitudes they have been a welcoming comfort to myself. Always up for chat which I've been very grateful for. Thank you so much to you both. This place deserves ten stars..five the Parkside motel⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ and five for Corey and Em ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank you once again ♥️

Enjoyed a very relaxing stay for long weekend. Nice walk to cafes, shops, restaurants. Short drive to water front. Room was clean and room cleaning staff very polite. Will definitely stay again.

My wife and I enjoyed our stay here. Clean room, friendly staff and fantastic water pressure in the shower. The bed was quite soft and very clean. Excellent value for money. Will definitely be staying here next time we're in town.

This place is pure filth. The stench coming from the hall and rooms is sickening. The smug service behind the front desk is just as disgusting. I have never given a 1 star review in my life. I booked a room that in the pictures looked beautiful, I was horrified what I walked into, with the musty smell of filthy carpet and guests smoking drugs with the smell coming into the corridor. There is no way I could’ve stayed with my two vulnerable children that had a lung condition. When I asked for a free cancellation, having only booked the room 2 hours before I was arriving & explaining our situation I was basically laughed at & told I wouldn’t be getting a refund. They also said they had a head quarters that was in control of refunds and they were not allowed to give details for me to take this further. As soon as I left the place the room was available again and they canceled my room. Save yourself the hassle & money, there’s plenty of more deserving places that don’t want to rip you off that actually hold common values of the country they live in. Clearly no business smarts… people will catch on.
