Play Pokies at The Sphinx Hotel North Geelong

We had a great night out at The Sphinx! The staff were very friendly, the other guests were all enjoying themselves and our food was very tasty with generous portions at reasonable prices. Couldn't ask for more!

Well done team for sharing in the fun and creating a great inclusive environment for all. A big event and always look forward to it. So nice to hear the staff excited about having the VALID HAS red faces here. Steak night and I couldn't fault. Eye fillet and oysters were fabulous. Just needed a bottle of Prosecco.

Firstly, on arrival, had to check in at the gaming lounge because reception was closed, And it was only 8 pm. Eventually got allocated a room, however the key was not working. Had to go back to reception who sent someone out to have a look at it and yes, the key wasn't working! Got another room. Unpacked, then realised there was no hairdryer in the room. Went back to the gaming lounge to enquire about hairdressers, and apparently they're not standard in a hotel of this quality. After travelling extensively throughout the world, this is the first time ever except for South Africa, that I've not had a hairdryer supplied in the room. Seriously? It's a item from Kmart. Of course the kitchen was closed so there was no way to eat, Not even snacks available at the bar. The room did not resemble the photos, and I would advise strongly against staying here.

Nice quirky place with lots of atmosphere. Staff were friendly and helpful and food was ordered and delivered in a timely manner. Very tasty meal. My only negative is that the servings size was too large and there was a lot of wastage. Offering a smaller portion at a cheaper price would be better.

It's a good pub. They tell me the goods good. Live music from time to time. Gets busy. pokies are ok. Staff not too bad either. Stayed in the motel once or twice, adequate. Not pet friendly which doesn't suit me but good to see a pool there.
