Firstly we booked this hotel whilst travelling in Australia. On arrival there was no one on reception and was greeted by what i think was the chef. He could not find our booking but assured us it was ok and put us in a deluxe studio. Firstly I would not class it as deluxe, the room was poor and smelt... More

Quaint from the outside with a nice eating area with all the colonial trimmings of ceiling fans, veranda etc. Rooms are basic, and the staff friendly. Very disappointed that the reception made no effort to send on a sweater left in the restaurant, despite my assurance to pay sending costs to Sydney when phoning back to see if it has... More

Chose to stay here due to character, location and the newly refurbished rooms. The rooms are large, freshly renovated, clean and simple. For the tarif we were very happy with our stay - Yongala reflects exactly what you want without splashing out. Most of all loved that is was clean with up-to-date furnishings. All motels should be long rid of... More

Great value for money. Clean room with big bed, tv, fridge, microwave, tea/coffee facilities etc. Clean bathroom. Very friendly staff. Quite a quaint hotel with a lot of interesting history. Even the people staying there were friendly and greeted us in the morning! Nice place if you are looking for something close to The Strand and beach. Perfect spot to... More

I stayed here on & off between March & December 2007 with work. According to their website, they have since renovated/modernised the complex. The rooms (back then) were well equipped with everything you needed with a great little pool downstairs (although set in the carpark). The place had a hint of history & was very comfortable. I loved the bar... More

There are many offers in Townsville but we wanted something more traditional and not the big hotel chains, that so often seem to abstract themselves pof the local culture. So after some online research, we found this charming motel, with a beautiful façade, spacious and modern rooms but still keep lovely wooden floors and interiors in the public areas. We... More

Budget rooms with spare bed and kitcehn area. Great for families. Apartments are nice, a little dated, but clean and everything works perfect. We stayed 3 nights and hotel couldnt have bbeen better for our diving trips as was only 5 mins to harbour. 15 mins to town, and ideal really. Restaurant is OK, but trade is slow so sometimes... More

We had a large, newly-removated room that was very attractive and comfortable. The only odd thing - and this wasn't the only place in Australia we found this situation - was that in this brand "new" room there wasn't a single drawer or shelf for your clothes! There was a closet for hanging stuff - but we had to spread... More
