Portarlington Grand Hotel
Boutique Bellarine Peninsula Heritage Hotel with Breakfast Hamper & Dining Credit
Established in 1888, this charming seaside hotel is the Bellarine Peninsula’s heritage jewel. The century-old facade houses a spectacular modern refurbishment, paying homage to the hotel’s history as a seaman’s reprieve, while offering the highest standard of luxury.
Portarlington is a region famous for its seafood and award-winning wine – don’t miss out on sampling the renowned produce at onsite venues with your included A$50 dining credit. The Atrium, a neighbourhood pub frequented by locals, serves fresh favourites like locally caught fish of the day. The Bistro takes it up a notch with signature Portarlington mussels, and local Bellarine distillers, breweries and wineries champion a thoughtful drinks menu at the Front Bar.
Portarlington Grand Hotel is ideally situated in the tranquil seaside town of Portarlington, Victoria, a stone’s throw from the local pier and the charming Portarlington Golf Club. A historic coastal township located on the Bellarine Peninsula, this hotel is a 30-minute drive from Geelong and a two-hour drive from Melbourne’s bustling CBD.
The hotel is located approximately a 90-minute drive from Melbourne Airport (MEL) and one-hour from Avalon Airport (AVV). Airport transfers are not included in your package, please plan accordingly.
