I liked staying at the Pelican Motor Inn as it was very quiet, clean and not noisy. In addition, it was walking distance from the Merimbula RSL which I really enjoy going to.

Good motel for location and comfort
Updated motel rooms; very clean and comfy. Great hot shower and comfy bed. Centrally located to Main Street. Tight carparking could be tricky for larger vehicles. We wouldn’t opt for a downstairs room again as the noise above (showers, taps, squeaky floor, walking around, people speaking) unfortunately straight through the walls and ceiling. We had paid at the higher end for this room.

Everything was great, except that it was noisy at times and the bed was old and not as comfortable as we’d like. Staff were very friendly checking us in.
