We were recommended this motel by an isite in a different town. It was an excellent recommendation. We found the hostess very helpful. Her cat was as friendly as she was. The room was very clean and tastefully decorated. Also a very good size and great value for money. Highly recommendable.

Close to town, with spacious rooms and a quiet location. The room I had was scrupulously clean and well equipped with a good flat screen tv and a decent kitchen. The Montpelier was friendly and helpful.

After a day of feeling very sick the Riverlea Motel felt like the best place in the world to lay my head. Marion was very kind and caring. Our unit was spotlessly clean and very user friendly. The bed was extremely comfortable. Excellent value for money and it will certainly be the place we stay next time we visit Gore.... More

We stayed three nights for a combined business and pleasure trip. My husband and I found our stay enhanced by Marian's friendliness and helpfulness. The continental breakfasts were delivered to our room the night before and the relevant items put in the fridge if we weren't there. We had a one bedroom unit. The rooms were big and well equipped.... More

After being checked in by a friendly pleasant host we were shown to a very clean and spacious studio unit. Everything you could wish for was available in the roomy kitchen area and the remainder of the unit continued this theme. Well appointed bathroom, living/bed area had room to spread out and an oh so comfy bed. Two things that... More

I think one of the best extras a motel room can offer the traveller is sp-a-ce to relax and be comfortable. I hate small mingy rooms. This place has sp-a-ce --a good lounge area with a well equipped kitchen, a seperate bedroom and bathroom. It was clean, light, neatly furnished and 130 bucks a night. Also a friendly and helpful...
