Stayed at the Dawson for an overnighter when passing through. Found the managers of this establishment to be very proud and caring of their grounds and visitors (very interesting people as well). Location was quiet, yet an easy walk to the CBD (although everything was closed when had a Saturday afternoon stroll into town). We stayed in a standard room... More

We were welcomed by Peter and immediately felt "at home"! Our room was in a corner and was clean, quiet and comfortable. The weather was hot so a dip in the swimming pool was wonderful! If we are touring in this area again then we would certainly return. More

We stopped at Dawson Motor Inn purely by chance; our itinerary being very fluid as we drive up the east coast toward northern Queensland. On arrival at the end of a fairly long day's drive through some heavy downpours, we were warmly welcomed by Peter. We decided to stay two nights in order to do a couple of day trips... More

The Cricket Illawarra U12 Representative Team chose to stay at the Dawson Motor Inn throughout their 2011/12 Carnival Tour after the high recommendations from the previous year’s Cricket Illawarra U12 Representative Team. To say that Peter, Gary and their staff are by far the most hospitable, kind and caring hosts would be an UNDERSTATEMENT. They truly go above and beyond... More

We arrived at the Dawson Motor Inn unaware due to a third party booking agent that our booking had been cancelled in error. The management went out of their way to find alternate accomodation at 8:30pm. We spent the 2nd night at the Dawson Motor Inn and was very impressed with the facilities - would definitely reccommend.

Cleanliness, friendliness, albeit small rooms but the whole area including the pool, is very well maintained. The owners go out of their way to be friendly and helpful, but not in any way obtrusive. Free wifi available, which is not always the case elsewhere. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. More

Room was comfortable and well appointed. Friendly welcome by staff who know the area and are an excellent source of local knowledge. I left two ring's in the bathroom by accident and checked out. Before I even realised they were missing, there was a message on my voice mail to let me know they had been boxed up carefully and... More
