Mansfield Motel is the newest motel in Mansfield. Although originally built in the 1960′s, there have been extensive renovations and improvements in recent years. Our Premier Rooms are shown here. All rooms will soon be of this same high standard as we complete the renovation in 2010.
These rooms are AAA rated as four-star and we are confident that guests will be most comfortable. Rooms have a high level of equipment not found in many other four-star properties. Microwaves and kitchen equipment, split AC and Austar are some of the features of our rooms.
Mansfield Motel is close to all ski hire, restaurants and bars. A perfect base for all Mt Buller ski activities. Only 40 minutes from Mt Buller makes us an ideal location for your ski accommodation. Less costly than most mountain accommodation makes Mansfield Motel a sensible option for families, groups and couples.
Mansfield Motel offers four star quality accommodation of a high standard that is sometimes hard to find in the country. Quality that is affordable as a longer term option.
Renovations of 5 rooms have been completed on Mansfield Motel’s final stage. See the progress on our Renovation-link. Our last three rooms will be completed in September 2010.
Mansfield is close the Mt Buller and provides top-quality accommodation without high cost.
Mt Buller is the closest ski resort to Melbourne and provides world-class facilities. In summer the High Country comes alive with spring.

Well. You hear all those old stories about the water being so high you could touch the bridge.
We are slowly getting there again. We may not be able to touch the bridge from the water but it is getting higher. Predictions of 60% before the end of the winter. We hope that it gets even higher.

VicRoads Road Closure Update – Regional Victoria
VicRoads advises that the roads listed below remain closed due to flooding, debris and/or trees on the road.

Saturday, 4th August..
This weekend is looking pretty drab for snow fans. What with very heavy rains overnight on Friday and a bleak looking Saturday, Mt Buller runs will have plenty of space for the novices to fall over. No fear or running over other skiiers.
Mt Buller Ski Hire in Mansfield were not hiring equipment on Saturday due to the poor conditions. A few mad skiiers braved the conditions and can be seen on Bourke Street. http://mansfieldmotel.com.au/mt-buller-snow-cams/
This can only mean great things for the lakes with levels up from 38 to 45% at Lake Eildon. Bring on the summer water sports.

Our feelings are with the owners and staff of the Mansfield Hotel which was burnt on the weekend 27 Aug, 2010. In another sad day for the region after the Maindample Hotel burnt down just two weeks prior, Mansfield has again lost one of it’s icons. Albeit, temporarily, the hotel has closed due to some serious internal damage by fire, water and smoke. The hotel will be back bigger and better in the near future.
Mansfield Motel thanks the Mansfield Hotel management Trevor and staff for support and supply of great meals to motel guests.
We have attached all the latest news about the Mansfield Hotel.

A fire has caused more than $300,000 worth of damage to the historic Mansfield Hotel at the weekend.
The building was evacuated about 5:00am (AEST) on Saturday after a fire started in the kitchen.
The fire caused extensive damage to the ground and first floor of the pub and there was smoke damage to the rest of the building.
CFA operations officer Malcolm Bruce says the fire also threatened neighbouring properties.
“Because of the age of this building there were a few add-ons and other buildings nearby, the crews worked hard to protect the building but there was some smoke damage to other buildings nearby,” he said.

Mansfield pub fire
THE HISTORIC Mansfield Hotel was engulfed in flames early this morning after a fire broke out in the popular pub’s kitchen.
The building was evacuated and nine fire trucks were deployed to the fire, which broke out just before 5am and took an hour to bring under control.
The main Mansfield roundabout was cordoned off, creating a backup of traffic heading to Mt Buller.
In Mansfield, multiple emergency calls were made as the hotel fire also threatened a nearby real estate agent office.
More than 40 CFA firefighters took an hour to bring the blaze under control and the extent of the damage is not yet known, although the interior is extensively burnt.
Mansfield Shire councillor Dean Belle, who helps operate the neighbouring Mansfield Produce Store, said the loss of the pub would be a big blow to the community.
“We’re all pretty devastated that it’s happened,” he said.
“As a town servicing the ski industry, it will slow things down a lot. We hope it will be back up and running as soon as possible.”
Fire crews are expected to remain at the scene for hours as a salvage operation continues.
The cause of the fire is being investigated and there are not believed to be any injuries.

As the rain continues to sweep a grey gloom over the region, Lake Eildon quietly absorbs the perpetual soaking. Levels are up and the snow comes down. Constant snowfalls over the last few days are promising some great days on Mt Buller and it can only mean that the mountain will be a most popular place as we pass the midway point of the snow season.
The latter part of the season promises to be fantastic for great powder and sensational boarding.
Check back soon for photographs of the lake.
