Highton

Geelong

This is a lovely place to go exploring at any time of the year. There is a walking track along the river that leads to a number of platforms, which has beautiful views over the falls.

After a decent winters rain, it's great for photographers. In summer you can find a lot of skinks here. Great biodiversity. #lovemytown

Couldn't fault the staff, cleanliness or amenities. For the price, it's a great value option. The parking charge is too steep but it's possible to free-park on the street only a few hundred metres away.

Room had a terrible smell. Smelt like an off dead animal. Complained within 5 minutes of being there as it was unbearable. The hotel knew about it, blaming the previous tenants with their cooking fish with fish oil in the room. They even admitted to not airing out the room as there was no fly wire ...
