About Mickey Bourke's Koroit Hotel

Set inside an 1853 country landmark, Mickey Bourke's pairs warm Irish heritage with hearty pub cooking and pints of Guinness by the fire.

Travellers praise the kitchen's generous plates—especially the slow-cooked beef and Guinness pie over mash, crisp chicken parmas, and tender steaks with Diane sauce. Upstairs, comfortable heritage rooms offer shared facilities, a communal kitchen, and a self-serve morning spread for anyone stopping over between Warrnambool and Port Fairy.
