Overall not a bad hotel, However the Heritage Room we stayed in wins an award for the smallest bathroom we’ve had in any hotel…. we have stayed in hundreds around the world.. you couldn’t sit straight on the loo and if you dropped the soap In the shower you had to get out to pick it up On the plus side great location right on the beach and surrounded by restaurants and cafes . Plenty of parking no issues. Check in was easy. The bed was comfortable and decent sized room . Not a fan of having the vanity in the room though. Another gripe was we went to the bar at 8.45 trying to get a drink after dinner and were told sorry closed… Breakfast was good with good services.

The rooms were dated but clean and very spacious. The hall areaa outside the rooms had a feel of a dormitory/prison, not great but served a purpose. The grounds were very good and location absolutely fantastic. I had breakfast one day and got there early - queues were fine and food choices were good. Would happily return if I visited Lorne again.
Mantra Lorne is one of our favourite places to stay which is why we keep coming back.The apartments are bright and spacious, the most recent one having views of the ocean. Mantra Lorne is conveniently located with the beach, restaurants,cafes and walks all on your doorstep so no need for the car at all. This is what a holiday is all about, total relaxation.
Very happy with the room and given a free upgrade for one of the nights. We had a resort room with ocean view. Reception was very helpful. Loved the heated mineral pool and spa- best used early in the morning if you want to do laps. Only one half on the spa jets were working but they were excellent strength. Women's changeroom had very slippery floor tiles- not the best choice for a wet area and was small with only one shower.. super close to the shore and we could hear the sounds of the ocean with our window open. Just don't open it wide enough for the cheeky cockies to enter as one got in and made a big mess all over the floor of our chips and pop corn! Worth noting, your car park may be un named as some are not designated to the rooms. Unimpressed with the in house breakfast buffet and the service in that area of the resort. Wouldn't bother again. Lovely sunrise from our room. Loved the cute ducks around the place. Overall a very enjoyable stay.
A nice room which staff allocated after a request when we arrived. Ocean view. 3 nights with one breakfast. Breakfast was very busy don't go at 9am. The location is excellent, close to the town right on the sand. No noise from our room. We have been in mid December for many years. Love Lorne.
