- Sarah (9/5): - Perfect spot as we just needed to go down the road for our event we were there for! would stay again.
- Jerome (7/5): Good Accommodation - Make Sure the Heating Works - The Heating in the room did not work - and the night I arrived around 7.30 pm - the temps dropped to 6 deg.
- Hodson (8/5): Very good -
- Allison (7/5): Good -
- Katrina (8/5): Great stay, easy quick late check in, comfy, clean etc - Easy stay for a night travelling through There was some odd smells in the 2 rooms we stayed in - the rooms on the road side seemed much nicer.
- Kerri (9/5): Superb -
- Katrina (9/5): Great quick stay generous car parks directly out front of room! - Easy location for passing through Charters Towers The room we were in could have been a bit cleaner - hairs that were not ours were in the bathroom.
- Life (8/5): Very good - Location excellent. Facilities available such as washing machines is a bonus. Quiet location. Meals available on request. The only thing is providing some basic cutlery (plate or bowl) for the room. I understand the Motel has meal options and this is likely why there is no cutlery.
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
- Britrac (10/5): Exceptional -
- Marcia (2/5): Old tired motel in need of renovations and upgraded management. - Front garden well maintained. Handed room key by reception then found allocated room already occupied. New room I was given not clean and very noisy from train line and highway.
- Catherine (10/5): Very friendly staff - We arrived late, after the kitchen had closed but the staff cooked a special meal for the kids who said ‘this is the best hotel ever!’
- Rodney (8/5): Comfy but not central - Very clean and seemed well kept. A little noisy with trucks on the road in front and infrequent freight trains behind.
Not in the main part of town.
- Graham (8/5): Suited our requirements for a one night stay. - A good functional Motel in pleasant grounds, garden etc. Position not the best in relation to eateries etc

- MikeK157166 (10/5): The perfect Motel. - This place is perfect and a pleasure to stay. I stayed here Sunday 22nd December.
The room and service were perfect as usual And as usual the Manager cooked a fantastic dinner and breakfast. You will never go hungry staying there.
I have stayed here twice before while travelling between Qld and NT but this time from Vic to Cairns.
The Motel is well placed with a service station just down the road and all main shops.
Pool was cool on a hot day of 32c.
Will stay again.
- Evangeline (9/5): Superb -
- Andrea (9/5): Superb -
- Jordon (8/5): Very good -
- Raymond (10/5): Exceptional - Did not have breakfast
- Tania (6/5): Pleasant -
- Garry (8/5): - Great motel, easy access and friendly staff.
- Tracey (8/5): Relaxing quiet place - Clean and tidy great linen
- Kenneth (6/5): - Just average
- Adele (10/5): - Easy to access and close to most services to either walk or drive
- SuperDuperCoach (8/5): Really decent motel. Typical basic motel amenity, everything done right. - Decent.
Pros:
• Clean
• Basics of a motel – kettle, microwave, fridge, basic tea and coffee
• Wifi worked ok. I’ve had worse.
• Pool looked nice
• Friendly proprietors
• Recently updated main room and renovated bathroom (low end but new fittings). Important if you object to dated but clean facilities – we don’t object. Clean is clean.
• Nice long bar and stools in the room so both people can sit and eat!
• Air Conditioned not particularly loud – unusual for a vanilla motel!
Cons:
• Trucks on the main road out the front which you can hear if you have the window open but otherwise not
• Basic – but as I say, clean, everything basic is done right.
Is at the top end of what I’d pay for basic, but its all done right and running a motel must be a difficult thing and I am sure it occupies a lot of hours 7 days a week for not a great income. So all in all a pretty decent place to stay. Nothing special, but decent. From what I read, a lot of the places in Charters aren’t this decent.
When you see it you may be bothered by the train line running behind the motel, I certainly was when I saw it. But only heard one train during the night, and slept as well as I have at any other accommodation. In any case the train line is close to most accommodation in Charters, even if not mentioned in the reviews of those places. Probably didn’t need to mention it really.
- Nicole (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean, would definitely stay again. There was nothing we did not like.
- Jasmin (10/5): Exceptional -
