“Great value and awesome view”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2012

Great place to stay, we stayed nye we could hear and see the fireworks clearly, wished we had the time to hang around in the morning as I think you would get a great view of the sun coming up and and seeing the awesome sight of Maggie island. The couple in reception who I think owned or at least managed were so nice and friendly, my only quamm was it was a slight mission to find and when I went to get take out go dinner I got lost coming back as I turned 1 street past the turn off. So maybe a bit better signage would be good when you turn off Gregory st I think the one where the old hospital used to be. Otherwise all good

“Excellent value for money”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 December 2011

We got a very competitive room rate on the internet, and were positively surprised by this motel on the top of a little hill. The room was spacious and clean, the motel had a nice little swimming pool that saw regular use by the patrons, and the staff was friendly and helpful (they reacted to an issue with our sanitary infrastructure at 10pm within 5 minutes!). Excellent value for money!

A Woolworths and an excellent bakery are just a few minutes away down the hill, as is the beach front of Townsville.

Small notice to GPS users: our unit initially led us through an incredibly steep and narrow little sideroad to get to the motel. Don't let yourself be fooled by your GPS, the motel is actually perfectly well accessible from the main road!

“Way overpriced”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 December 2011

Only stayed here 1 night and this place is nothing special. Clean room, clean sheets and comfortable bed, but, for what we paid this was so overpriced. You cannot walk to anything in town, definitely need to have a car here. Staff were just ok; the pool is tiny and looks like it could fit about 2 people.
There are plenty of other nice places to stay right in town or near the water. We won't be back!!

“Great Motel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 September 2011
2
people found this review helpful

We stayed for two nights in an upstairs executive room. We got this motel via a Wotif mystery deal. Great value, was only $105 per night. Room was spacious, well appointed with a large TV. Tea, coffee, biscuits and milk supplied. Toaster in room as well. Bathroom was good with a large shower and great hot water and shower head. Bed was lovely and comfortable. We stayed on a Thursday and Friday night and it was very quiet. Location is great as you are virtually in the middle of the city without all the noise. Yes you need a car as it is on top of a steep hill, but seeing it is a motel surely most people would drive there. Two minutes drive and you are in the middle of the city and at Cowboys Leagues Club. I found the check in staff very nice and helpful and you can also buy COLD beer from reception at very good prices which is great. Would certainly stay at this motel again. The rooms do not have any private balconies but there is a table and chairs for every room outside on the common balcony if you wish to sit outside.
