Top Lorne Hotel Reviews

Great Ocean Road Resort

Great Ocean Road Resort

6/10 Okay
"From the description, I expected a bit more, but it felt like just a couple notches above a motel, with some facilities. The trampoline was very tired. The racquets and balls loaned for tennis were hopeless. The gym was good. No toaster provided and a weird and annoying interaction when I asked for one, which ultimately resulted in a half working toaster being provided and when I asked for tissues, the response that there should be some was just annoying given that I was asking for some because there were none (the 6x tissues in the box when we arrived happened to be used up after a day ). The fridge was also really noisy at night, almost 50 decibels with the bedroom door shut according to the iPhone sound meter. Very limited kitchen provisions. We had no reason to expect someone would come into our room during the day (no ‘do not disturb’ sign offered) but some staff obviously came in and made our bed, gave us a chopping board and tea towel that they probably were supposed to give us in the first place - very annoying, I don’t like staff in my stuff and would have opted for do not disturb "

Frequently asked questions

How much does a budget hotel in Lorne cost?
Budget hotel prices in Lorne vary, but you can find a great deal from £125 on Expedia. To find the cheapest budget hotels, be flexible with your dates—typically, off-peak and mid-week stays are cheaper. Stretch your budget further by looking for hotels with free breakfast, free parking or free airport shuttles. Sort your search results by "Price: low to high" to see our lowest rates.
Which area of Lorne is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For budget-conscious solo travellers seeking affordable accommodation in Lorne, focusing on areas slightly away from the absolute beachfront and main esplanade often yields better value. While Lorne is renowned for its scenic beauty, it's a popular destination, so truly "cheap" hotels are less common than in larger cities; instead, look for good value.

Solo travellers might find more budget-friendly options in the streets just behind the main foreshore, particularly around the areas leading up towards the hinterland or slightly south of the main shopping strip. These spots still offer easy walking access to the beach and town centre, but accommodation prices tend to be a little lower than those directly overlooking the ocean. Look for guesthouses, motels, or holiday park cabins set back a street or two. Many of these provide essential amenities without the premium price tag of a full-service hotel, and being a solo traveller, you'll appreciate the convenience of being able to walk everywhere.

Another strategy for solo travellers is to consider the shoulder seasons (spring and autumn) when demand is lower, and prices for all accommodation types, including those closer to the beach, become more accessible.
When is the most affordable time to visit Lorne?
The most affordable time to visit Lorne is typically during the shoulder seasons—late autumn (May) and early spring (September-October)—or the winter months (June-August). During these periods, you'll find lower prices for accommodation and fewer crowds, making it easier to enjoy the scenic coastal town on a budget.

For solo travellers, visiting in autumn offers a peaceful experience with pleasant weather for exploring the Great Ocean Road without the summer rush. Many guesthouses and smaller hotels in Lorne offer reduced rates, and you might even snag a good deal on car hire. You can still enjoy activities like hiking in the Otway Ranges or simply relaxing on the beach, often with the added bonus of off-peak discounts at local eateries.

Families might find winter to be surprisingly good value, especially if they're not solely focused on swimming. While the water is cooler, the dramatic coastal scenery is still stunning, and many indoor attractions remain open. Accommodation, including self-catering apartments and holiday homes, sees a significant drop in price, allowing families to enjoy more spacious lodging for less.
Is Lorne a budget-friendly destination?
While Lorne is generally considered a more expensive coastal town, travellers can absolutely experience its charm on a budget with some smart planning.

For accommodation, consider staying in nearby towns like Apollo Bay or Wye River, which often offer more affordable options, especially for families. Alternatively, look for holiday park cabins or self-catering apartments in Lorne itself, allowing you to prepare your own meals and save on dining out.

Couples and solo travellers can enjoy Lorne's natural beauty without spending a fortune. Many of its best attractions are free, such as relaxing on the main beach, exploring the rock pools, or taking a scenic walk along the foreshore. The stunning Erskine Falls are also a short drive away and offer a beautiful, free experience. For those who enjoy hiking, the Great Otway National Park provides numerous trails with breathtaking views.
How can I save on a budget hotel in Lorne with Expedia?
There are plenty of ways to save on a budget hotel in Lorne. Join One Key™, our free travel rewards programme, to unlock Member Prices across a range of hotels. Typically, booking in advance will help you save on hotel bookings. If you're feeling spontaneous, be sure to check for last-minute deals.
What free activities should we do in Lorne?
Lorne, Victoria, offers a fantastic array of free activities, great for budget-conscious solo travellers looking to immerse themselves in nature and local culture.

Start your exploration on the golden sands of Lorne Beach, where you can spend hours swimming, sunbathing, or simply strolling along the shore, taking in the refreshing sea air. The beach is a central hub and provides easy access to the town's charming main street for a window-shopping wander.

For those who enjoy a walk, the Swing Bridge over the Erskine River is a popular spot, providing picturesque views of the river mouth and the coastline. Just a short walk from the town centre, you can also discover the tranquil beauty of Erskine Falls. The viewing platforms offer stunning perspectives of the cascading water and the lush fern gullies below, and the short walk down to the base of the falls is a refreshing experience.

Further afield, but still within easy reach, the Teddy's Lookout provides panoramic vistas of the Great Ocean Road winding along the coast, the Saint George River estuary, and the expansive Bass Strait. It's a truly breathtaking spot for photography and simply enjoying the majestic scenery.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a hotel in Lorne as a package?
Booking a hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my budget hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right budget hotel in Lorne for you.
