My mate and I had a Budget room here for two nights in April 2013. The Motel was conveniently placed to the town centre and main roads. The room was quiet, clean, spacious, and quite well equipped for a Budget room. It had a lounge suite as well as a writing table. The motel has a great lounge bar and... More

The room, bathroom and beds were clean and well maintained. The room was too small and cramped for the price but given the location and peak-season, it was probably justified. We had cooked buffet breakfast (at extra charge) the next morning which was pretty good.

This motel has to be the best in Queenstown, and after arriving home, one of the best in rural Tasmania. Beautifully clean, well appointed with very usable amenities, quiet with undercover parking, and close to everything. The pizza served to room was top class, delivered with a smile and like the restaurant (we had breakfast there) was very good value... More

We had a first floor room and found the stairs hard going with luggage. The room was large and clean but dated with only tea making facilities. Plenty of off street parking. We had a good sleep for the price. Close to town. We had trouble filling the kettle from the sink in the bathroom.
