We stayed one night in march 2012 as the other hotel in the area was booked out. the views are fantastic and we had a room facing the ocean. the room is tired and the bed is hard. the sheets were clean but old and thin. The bathroom was good and clean. the resort is old and very tired and... More

The staff at the info centre in Bicheno gave it to us straight - the place is old but clean, and it's on prime real estate. It was literally the last place left to stay in town and surrounds on a Monday night in January. We had an ocean view room on the right hand side, and the view from... More

Recently stayed at this motel and was devastated to see how it has been run down over the years. The magnificent location was the saving grace. The original entrance to the motel is deplorable and needs tidying up. The cafe has a nice location but the staff could be more professional and welcoming. The rooms were clean - the outside... More

This motel has the most wonderful location.It's quite sad to see how run down the motel is though as its potential as unique beach side accommodation is neglected.The entrance to the motel is unforgivable with ugly delapidated building,broken windows and entrance stuffed with boxes in the bargain basement shop which is a strange addition.The White Dog Cafe is in a...

We stayed 3 nights during December and had a great time. At first glance the hotel appears a little tired but the room we stayed in had been renovated and was fine. The cafe had good breakfasts and was licenced, which for us was a bonus as sunsets on the deck with a glass of Tassie wine were a must.... More

Having read other's reviews I was not looking forward to the planned night at Silver Sands. I was however sooooo pleasantly surprised. The shaby rear entrance to our room was in keeping with expectation but upon stepping into the room, it was pretty much imaculate. All aspects clean, all soft furnishings fresh, beds comfortable, self catering more generous than many... More

Great location with beautiful view of the ocean. Very friendly staff and pleasant rooms. Great looking cafe attached with great selection of cakes etc. Very clean and felt new, suited our needs perfectly- had a great sleep! Would definitely stay here again. More

Stayed 1 night in March 2010 whilst driving around Tasmania. Very old motel that is in need of redevelopment. Location is magic with ocean views and magic sunrises. However the rooms are 1960/70 era with cheap pine furniture and tired fittings. Television reception was poor reception service was only average. There are better places in Bichenoi for the traveller. More

We arrived at the entrance and almost turned around and went elsewhere because of the appearance. Yes the place is from the 70's, yes it is in need of a makeover and yes, it is old and tired-looking but we decided to inspect an oceanview room and loved the outlook. Room was old but clean so we booked for 2... More
