Linaker Art Deco Motel

Convenient location. Quiet.

Room was filthy

Old and musty and very noisey in evening.

Great hotel with a lot of atmosphere. Add on a ghost tour at the asylum to get the full experience!

Fine for overnight, but wouldn't want to stay any longer. Room was nice but air con/heating wasn't working and we had to rely on a small radiator and a fan heater. Public areas were also freezing.

Dean was very helpful. Motel is very quiet.

Old nurses quarters. Refurb to basic level but very clean and one of the most comfortable beds I’ve slept in

Outside could do with some maintenance

Very old classic building in beautiful grounds. Full of history. Short walk into town and the beautiful surroundings.

The Manager did everything possible to make our stay enjoyable. Wonderful environment.

Such an interesting hotel, art deco style and history is fascinating. Comfortable beds and great check in experience. No soap in bathrooms and shower is often lukewarm. Can hear other rooms very clearly, so if another room is talking loudly or having a late night party you will hear every bit of it. The staff (Deano) were amazing and when I called to complain about another room having a party at 3am, they immediately picked up the phone and sorted it. Highly recommend staying here for the history, location, and vibe. Bring your own soap and ear plugs if you're a light sleeper.

This property was just so enchanting because of the history that surrounds it. The bed was comfortable, the shower and water was strong and hot. We enjoyed our stay, and we must say that, Deano was a very attentive host. I would recommend the Nurses Quarters to all who are thinking of staying in the area.

It wasn’t my ideal place was nothing like the pictures

Lovely large room with unique fun decor. In a quiet and beautiful setting, walking distance from town for dinner. Good value.

Stay was okay but vibes of the motel and the area around was pretty spooky as if it is haunted. Later I discovered an ancient asylum hospital few meters away which was famous for some ghost/paranormal discovery trips.

Very spacious room with character

Peaceful Harmonious Great to listen to all the cockies and other birds waking up in the morning Great Chinese restaurant in Town 11out of 10 for Deano the manager. Looks rough as guts, but bends over backwards to accommodate ALL your wants and needs

Worn out uncared for monastic style accomodation with no services… forget it.

I chose to stay at Linaker Nurse’s Quarters because I was intrigued by how they have set this up as a motel. Motel guests definitely step back in time as they enter through to the foyer. The room was spacious with separate bathroom and living area which is modestly furnished, but this would have been reminiscent to the era. Microwave, toaster, kettle and TV are all clean and worked well. Tes/coffee/milk etc provided. Bathroom had a great shower and decor was befitting the era as well. Basic supplies were provided which was great as hubby forgot his toothbrush. The bedroom boasted a very comfortable bed which was great after a long days driving. Other than the bed, there were no modern additions to this room and the large wardrobe was sizeable enough to fit your clothes, suitcases and picnic basket if you have one. The communal lounge is photo worthy and all that was missing was that the reception staff were not dressed to reflect the former use of this site. That would have been great. For meals, it was a short stroll or even shorter drive back into town for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Overall this was affordable accommodation for anyone on a budget, it was quirky, we felt safe and had a great nights sleep.

It was our first time at Linaker‘s and we enjoyed very much; we will return for sure
