Everything was neat and clean - the only down side was the single use coffee cups, plastic cups and wine glasses. But perfect apart from that personal preference.

Excellent value for money.

Clear instructions sent prior to gain access to the room with key safe. No reception service available, but no need. Very quiet considering it’s on the main road. Close to walk to eateries. Very clean and renovated queen room. Spacious and warm. Comfy bed.

Pleasant surprise

On arrival this motel looked like it needed lots of TLC. DON’t be fulled by the exterior. Our room (room 4) was the cleanest room and well organised room we have stayed in in Victoria. Reception is off site but the check in was excellent. For the price it is excellent value. Would definitely stay here again

Swan Hill has gotten so expensive, but the Paruna remains cost effective. I booked one of the renovated rooms, which was clean and spacious compared to others. Very close to town and a hidden gem!

Hello 1970’s old and outdated needs an upgrade

Room was very outdated i felt we were back in 1970. Bathroom basin has rust stain around drain. I was not happy with grey coloured towels as you cannot see if they are clean or not. Room was very dark with very little natural light. Bed was comfortable . Desperately needs an update. I believe it was overpriced for what we got

We had a Family room. I was very happy. It was basic but excellent value for money. I requested extra towels and pool towels be placed in our room and they were. This is a great hotel. We used the pool and BBQ. Not the pay BBQ we lost a $1 but the other BBQ worked fine.

I travel to Swan Hill every 2 weeks. I like to stay at the Paruna as it is close to where I need to be. However....I will not be staying there again. 2 stays in a row when I woke in the morning my door was open. I left a note and spoke with the cleaners (as the managers are not on site, ever!). No one got back to me with any type of acknowledgement/excuse/reason as why this might happen. This stay I could not regulate the shower, the hot water kept dropping out. As there are so many options to choose from in Swan Hill I am going to give another Motel my fortnightly business.
