The point for us is that Kaniva is 3 hours from home (4 hrs from Adelaide.) For us it's a preferred "halfway" from Melbourne, rather than Horsham which we've also tried. (We were coming from Warrigal). Town is small but Commercial Hotel does good pub meals.

Fantastic, character filled town with green spaces and really well preserved buildings. Located about half way between Adelaide and Geelong made it a great stopping location. We had choices for dinners and a beautiful sunset to view. The Commercial Hotel is lots of fun.

We absolutely loved the hospitality and friendly atmosphere in Kaniva. The locals were very helpful and accommodating. If you love a small town vibe away from the hustle then it's for you. No bells and whistles but a great stop over. We went to the Club Hotel for a few drinks and a meal, everything was outstanding. Definitely would stop here again while travelling. And would definitely stay at The Midway Motel again.

The website shows nice, neat tidy rooms.
The website shows nice, neat tidy rooms. I booked a family room plus pet friendly room. What we got was a room out the back of the property next to the laundry that was carpeted, musty, and in need of repair. And old air-conditioning unit held together by silver duct tape. Plus I was charged an additional $40 for my dog (small cavoodle). We booked for one night.... stayed for 2 hours then decided to continue the drive to our destination.
An expensive 2 hr stay....
