Stopped overnight after perusing several motels in Childers,after a long day driving,but found the room very noisy from the highway traffic,and I think we ended up in a disabled /senior's room(maybe it was my grey hair!) It was a mish mash of colours and grab bars in situ shower and toilet! In it's favour,it did have a toaster and microwave,which... More

We spent a night at the Childers Gateway Motor Inn on the way from Mackay to the Sunshine Coast. We booked online without any problems. The check in person was friendly and helpful. Parking right outside our room was handy. Room was very clean with plenty of room for a family of 4. TV in main room is mounted too... More

Good accommodation. Was able to cater for a large family (2 adults + 3 kids). Neat and clean rooms. Friendly service. Price was good considering it was also Easter holidays. Only negative was the price of wifi for internet - $6 daily, whereas we received free wifi for a week with a hotel we stayed with in Cairns. Would stay... More

Staying for 1 night. Room was clean, but had an odour that reminded me of a fumigation smell. Aircon worked, curtain shut out the light. Hard to say much about such a basic place. Their $6 charge for 24 hour 100 meg wifi internet seemed steep, especially considering their rate of $100 which didn't include breakfast. Bearable if you're passing... More

Ended up here after a nightmare with staff at the Palace Motel. Staff at the Gateway were very welcoming and friendly. Rooms were large and clean and the pool was a bonus. Excellent breakfast the next morning. Would stay there again.

We booked the room through an online booking site because we didn't know what motels were out this way. We took a chance with it and really came up trumps!! My wife and I were visiting out that way, taking my elderly Mother around the places of her childhood. From book in to check out the experience was great. It... More

Stayed here on our way to Whitsundays. Managers lovely and helpful. Our family room was large with a seperate bedroom for kids with a t.v Best of all it was clean and surprisingly quite for a motel just off the highway. Its not modern and shiny new, but functional and spacious. It was a great find and would recommend this... More

Great place to stay when travelling the Bruce Highway. Rooms were reasonably priced very clean and comfortable and well appointed. Meals to room are good value and you can buy a reasonably priced bottle of wine or a beer from reception. The collection of scale model classic Aussie cars in the reception area was fantastic. Only complaint was when theoccupants... More
