Arden Motel, North Melbourne
Not regional, but still definitely OK. It's right near the Queen Vic Market, and the motel is cute as a button. That's all you need really. BOOK A STAY
Bandicoot Motor Inn, Hamilton
The people at the Bandicoot are legends. Best smiles with hot local tips. On the edge of town, it’s nice and quiet. Bandicoot is the motel you dream of at the end of a long day of the road. BOOK A STAY
Belltower Motor Inn, Shepparton
Belltower Motel is your perfect MediEvil crash pad in the heart of Shepp. The rooms don't disappoint, with plenty of nods to ye olde times. BOOK A STAY
Best Westlander Motor Inn, Horsham
Horsham is not short of a good OK Motel, and this one on the outskirts of town packs a punch. The motel has plenty of original features but where this wins is the rec room which, once again, has a pool surrounded by carpet. Must have been a thing once. BOOK A STAY
Charlton Motel, Charlton
It's OK Motels home. The reason we're all here. She's definitely seen some changes over the years, but she's still the same dusty Mallee motel we first fell in love with. Pop in for a visit in the quiet times and say hello. BOOK A STAY
Corio Bay Motel, Geelong
A no-frills gem where The Murlocs once played in the car park. Out the back, it’s all oil refinery glow and seagulls on the bay. The serenity. BOOK A STAY
Country Home Motor Inn, Shepparton
Such a sweet little stunner in the heart of Shepp. It's even has the TV switch next to your bed still. BOOK A STAY
El Toro Motel, Numurkah
Where desert dreams meet country charm. A little slice of Hacienda, tucked between the fruit trees and the dusty roads of the Goulburn Valley. It's just down the road from Cactus Country too! BOOK A STAY
Foundry Palms Motel, Charlton
Down the road from the Charlton Motel is the Foundry Palms. It's another solid brick gem, which on a hot day in the Mallee is something worth considering. It's right near the op shop too! Say hi to Yvonne, she's a legend. BOOK A STAY
Golden Grain Motor Inn, Horsham
Golden Grain Motor Inn has perfectly formed OK rooms, but you're really going for the rec room, with its carpeted pool area. It’s exactly where you want to be making a splash. BOOK A STAY
Highlander Haven, Maryborough
This place still looks like it did when your parents visited. The 1930s function room is still in original condition and is a very good place for a party. BOOK A STAY
Jane Eliza Motor Inn, Swan Hill
Another amazing rec room motel, with very lovely laminex bedhead and still repping the quilted bedspread. Don't forget to have a meal at the Japanese restaurant in town, it is delish. BOOK A STAY
Kerang Valley Resort, Kerang
This is such a secret spot just waiting for a good party, or just a quiet weekend away. Pop in to the local pubs and businesses and support the locals in Kerang. BOOK A STAY
Majestic Motel, Horsham
There are so many things to love about the Majestic. First, it has a neon sign, a pool, a luscious dining room, and some pretty awesome typography. BOOK A STAY
Midcity Motor Inn, Ballarat
During my first stay at the Midcity I noticed the mini bar was stocked with a full sized bottle of Jack. Welcome to Ballarat. BOOK A STAY
Mildura Motor Inn, Mildura
I can't say enough "yes" for this gem in the Sunraysia. It is such a fun place to stay, with so many original features to drool over. It's super comfy too, which is important after the giant drive to get there. BOOK A STAY
Motel St Arnaud, St Arnaud
The main thing you need to know about Motel St Arnaud is it’s got an old-school Chinese restaurant, and yes, they serve it through the hatch, straight to your room. BOOK A STAY
Oasis Motel, Nhill
Too much goodness to fit in this tiny paragraph. It's beautifully original, and is home to the Australian Pinball Museum. BOOK A STAY
Pot o' Gold Motel, Rainbow
You really will find a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow when you visit one of the cutest towns. This motel is adorable, and has a swimming pool in the shed for hot summer days. BOOK A STAY
Rivergum Motel, Echuca
This place reminds the interiors of my childhood. Brown, brick, wood. It's really is a little gem on the Murray. BOOK A STAY
Rushworth Motel, Rushworth
Rushworth is such a secret stunner and this motel is as OG as you can get. Wood panelling, exposed brick and an amazing local pub across the road. BOOK A STAY
