Halls Gap Valley Lodges

Stayed in a two br lodge with friends for the Grampians Grape Escape. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, quiet and had everything we needed for a weekend away. Jenny the host was friendly and timely with responses, check in was a breeze - this is my third time staying with the Halls Gap Valley Lodges which says it all ;-)

Beautiful, peaceful location for our 2 night stay. Our cabin was clean and well equipped with everything we needed, and personal fire pit. Lots of kangaroos and even emus saying hello to us through the bedroom window in the morning! Friendly, helpful hosts. Hopefully we will be back one day!

Was really looking forward to visiting this property as the setting seemed (and is) pretty special with kangaroos and emus roaming the grounds. However, our first impressions were poor and as a result we never felt comfortable there and left a day early. We arrived mid afternoon but reception was closed and we found our lodge key pinned to a board at the front door. Immediately inside the front door is a large lounge/kitchen/dining area but it all just looked tired and in need of some sprucing up. In particular the 2 black leatherette sofas were badly worn and quite scuffed. One had stuffing coming out of a cushion. The kitchen was quite well equipped but seemed to be endowed with notices of the "do this or we'll charge you " variety (see photos) so it all just felt a bit cold and unfriendly and out of date. The bedrooms had decent bedding and the property was pretty clean with one exception- the previous guests/housekeeping had forgotten to clean grease from the hob. Also a large set of keys had been left in a bedroom. We ended leaving a day early and there was also no-one to talk to at 0845 when we departed, so we didn't see any staff member while we were there. I did get a text message from the owner later that day after she'd realised we'd left early asking if we were ok and to be fair I understand there was a good reason why she wasn't there to check us in personally but I don't think even a warm welcome would have lifted the place to a 5* review given some of the other issues

My wife and I stayed in the new Hideaway Villa for 3 nights during our recent holiday in Grampians. This was our third stay in Halls Gap Valley Lodges. Our previous two stays were in the older Lodges, before the Villa was built. The new Villa is very spacious, secluded and luxurious. We enjoyed our comfortable stay here and will return again in future. During our stay, we saw many Kangaroos, Emus, Deers, rabbits and Cockatoos. This is one of the attractions of staying here and why we return to this place. The spa bath is excellent after a day of hiking.

Best hotel ever stayed, can easily see wild animals just outside of hotel, like lots of Kangaroos, emus, parrots and even deers, saw Kangaroos through room window which is fantastic experience. Hotel stuff was very friendly, room was clean, big and cozy, facilities were decent, and the location was perfect for us, quiet but not too far from the town.

What an absolute gem of a place. Starting with the hosts, Jenny and Mark, very friendly and could not be more helpful with all aspects of our stay. Set back from the road far enough not to hear any traffic. Enjoyed super comfy beds, awesome showers, and a great fireplace. Neat and tidy area with an abundance of wildlife, kangaroos, emus, deer and birds. Very relaxing, quiet and peaceful.

We really enjoyed our stay in the Halls Gap Valley Lodges. The cabins were very comfortable and our hosts very helpful. I would definitely recommend a stay there. Lots of bird song to wake up to in the morning and other wildlife such as kangaroos and emus to watch.Beautiful views looking towards The Grampians from our cabin. A reconnect to Nature.

Our family booked 4 of the lodges again as we had also been there in 2022. The stay was excellent and the grandkids absolutely enjoyed it as they got to ride their bikes around the grounds which they wouldn't have been able to do at any of the other places in Halls Gap. It is short distance by bike to Halls Gap and in the other direction south to the Reservoir on the bike paths. I took my mountain bike and headed across the road through the cleared bush areas to the Boronia track (below Boronia Peak) past Halls Gap and had a fantastic ride passing herds of deer but did have to haul the bike over some fallen trees. We will definitely go back and stay there again as it does not feel as cramped as staying inside the Halls Gap township. The restaurant at the motel next door also made it an experience with their huge meals at a reasonable price for families

Second time we have had the pleasure to stay here and wouldn’t stay anywhere else in the Grampians. The cabins are massive and feel like a home away from home. The views from the cabins are epic and everyday we had different wildlife right out side our window, which the little one enjoyed! Definitely recommend staying here when visiting halls gap and surrounds.
