We had a fantastic stay at the Holiday Inn Geelong. Our room was located on one of the top floors and offered lovely views overlooking the vibrant city. The location was perfect. everything we needed was within walking distance, including shops, restaurants, and the scenic waterfront, where we enjoyed a relaxing stroll by the ocean. The hotel staff were outstanding special thanks to Lalit, Karthik, and Czar for their warm hospitality and professionalism. Our room was spotless, well-maintained, and the furnishings were modern and comfortable. The breakfast spread was definitely a highlight of our stay. We were especially impressed with the friendly service provided by Aussie Jack and the restaurant team, who made each morning enjoyable. We also pre-booked the secure basement parking, which gave us peace of mind and made our arrival stress-free. Another standout feature was the pool on the first floor, where we spent some relaxing and enjoyable time. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our experience and would highly recommend Holiday Inn Geelong to anyone visiting or passing through the area.

Had a wonderful first time experience as a family of 4. Highly recommended for those with kids. Staff were lovely and on hand to answer questions and assist whenever needed. Location and onsite parking were great. Our room was spacious even for all 4 of us, and the showers were incredible! Will definitely return if in the area

I would rate this hotel 6 stars if I could. We booked online and almost immediately received an email regarding hotel parking - book in advance as it is limited. Clean, modern and very well appointed - our room was spacious, warm, quiet and had everything we needed. We enjoyed a buffet breakfast at a reasonable price - with so many options - just as you expect at a 5 star hotel. Having said all that - the stand out was the staff! At every interaction they were smiling, welcoming and making us feel valued with little comments and questions about us and our stay - we felt so valued. Keep up the great standard - we have already told others to stay here and we will only pick this hotel next time we are in Geelong!
