Marlo Hotel
Perched on a bluff in the heart of a peaceful seaside village, the Marlo Hotel has been a Gippsland icon for over a century.
A Storied Past, A Scenic Present
Surrounded by bushland, farmland, and wildlife reserves, the tranquil village of Marlo is a serene stop along the Gippsland coast. At its centre, the Marlo Hotel boasts sweeping views over the Snowy River estuary and out to the Tasman Sea. First established in 1875 as a simple bark hut, it quickly evolved into the town’s social hub — pub, general store, and unofficial post office all in one. Today, it remains a beloved meeting place for both locals and travellers.
Classic Comforts with a Coastal Twist
Guests can soak up the sun on the deck with a cold pint in hand or settle in overnight in one of the hotel’s recently refurbished rooms. The menu leans into generous pub classics — think parmas, burgers, and steaks — but the real draw is the rotating selection of seafood specials. Expect Lakes Entrance whiting and scallops in tacos and chowders, plump mussels in a fragrant green coconut curry, and house-made pizzas on weekends. Locally baked damper adds a true taste of the region.
