Bay View Hotel reviews
2 Star Review by Ben Bourne
Suggest not visiting unless youre a local. We stopped in for a few beers and a few games of pool. Waited at the bar while the rude, grumpy bar staff served the locals that came after us first. The locals made us feel really uncomfortable in the beer garden. We were told by one of them we couldnt play pool because they were having a pool competition. We sat and finished our beers next to the table with no one playing it and then left. If youre from out of town, give your money to an establishment that values its customers and deserves it.
3 Star Review by Ashton Lavaring
Garlic bread was really good. Staff were friendly and accommodating. The bbq bacon and cheese schnitzel wasnt good at all. Overcooked and dry.
2 Star Review by Nick
Very uncomfortable night. If I had my car I would have left and slept in it. Room was noisy. Constant fridge or some sort of compressor noise all night. I live in the inner city I am used to noise. No glasses or cups available for guests. Even for water. Needed to check in late due to flights. They did call, but I made it just in time. I was 15 min early of the informed time. Housekeeping knocking on the door numerous time way before checkout time. $20 key deposit reflects on what they think of their guests. Last resort, or lift your game.

I stay at the Bayview Hotel most times I come to Bateman Bay for work which is a couple times a month. Most recently last Monday to Friday. I get a single room bed which bed is clean and comfy with fresh sheets on every occassion. Shower and toilet just across hall way no big deal. I must say best hot shower I have had Always hot and great water pressure. Nice old rooms too, love the slide up windows and ornate old sealings. I had two meals in the pub whilst I stayed there chicken snitty, chips, salad and gravy $15 yum and very good serving. If you like take away plenty only a stones throw away. Pizza, Chinese, Maccas, kfc, restaurants all 5 minute walk away great location central. Some nights patrons play the duke box in the beer garden untill around 9.30pm but i like listening to all those songs. Some people may think it loud but it is a pub and thats what goes on in pub hotels, I like it love the tunes. The bar in the Bayview is very good and plenty tv's sports on and TAB if thats what you like. I prefer to have a couple quiet ones as I did last Thursday in the up stairs lounge room all to myself (see pic) as I watched my beloved Tigers get robbed in the elimination final against Brisbane. Lynches goal should have stood unbelievable. Ayways lounge room and balcony all to myself as I watched the footy having a few beers. Thank you Bayview Hotel for making me feel home away from home ill be back.
2 Star Review by Caleb & Rachael Pullman
The room was adequate. The beds were comfortable and the vanity area looked newly installed. But windows onto the balcony area didn't lock. There wasn't a kettle or hair dryer which would have been helpful. One of the staff members was rough with a comment because we woke at 6am. Perhaps the walls are thin? Also had lots of trouble ensuring our booking was recorded. We phoned and each time our details were not neatly recorded so after 3 phone calls we arrived to no reservation.. I challenged this and it was discovered that we did have a reservation that was scrawled in illegible handwriting. The location was near nice eateries and the boats by the water were lovely.

Not clean. Very run down fittings and carpets. Not kettle, no fridge, no utensils, also very small rooms.
2 Star Review by Erin Lee
If you can stay anywhere else in town, do that! To keep it simple; it's way too expensive, rooms are cramped, amenities badly kept & unsecure. Be prepared to also pay a $20 key deposit fee upon check-in & deal with staff that aren't happy to be there.
