My 2 year old daughter and myself were only passing through and stayed the one night. It was a VERY pleasant experience and I couldn’t have been more happy with the service I received upon arrival even though we had no booking. The food from the restaurant served to us in our room was delicious with more than enough on... More

Booked one night here on the strength of earlier reviews, and am so glad we did. Whilst the motel itself obviously isn't new, the rooms are modern, clean and very spacious. On the main road in to Rockhampton, but is set back, and we weren't troubled by any noise at all. The staff were helpful & friendly. Breakfast, which was... More

We always stay here when we go to Rocky. The rooms have a great layout and are better than basic. Undercover parking outside your room with decent sized parking bays. The breakfast is included and is always plentiful and good with something for everyone. Can't fault it for the price. Not luxury but great value for money. More

Good place to stay in Rockhampton if you don't need to be within walking distance to anything. Clean and large room with a very good restaurant but the bed was a bit hard. The buffet breakfast which is included in the price makes the $120 good value. However, don't choose the Mixed Grill for dinner, if you want to get... More

Found this motel by chance when planning our trip. But what a find. We had been staying at some nice but basic places for the previous 4 nights and we were all delighted to find ourselves at such a great motel. My daughters got their own room in our 2 bedroom unit, which we hadn't expected - especially given the... More

Stayed here just the one night. It was how I imagine a motel in America. You drive in and park undercover outside your room. The room was very large but it was dark due to there being only a window at the front and the parking cover. Clean but in need of an update. More

My Husband and I stayed at Sun Palms Hotel Motel for one night in July, during a sales trip from Cairns to Brisbane. We had a room at the back of the complex and found it to be very quiet. Our room was one of the largest Motel rooms we stayed in during our trip. It was very comfortable with... More
