My daughter had a long term stay while on placement at the Base Hospital. She felt safe and loved her room which was fully self contained, clean and serviced weekly. Naomi went out of her way to make her feel at home and even offered her personal bike should she ever need it. The motel was within walking distance to the IGA, a local gym, the botanical gardens, great coffee shops and Parkrun. Thank you for her wonderful stay.

I represent a group of golfers who stayed at Mackay Motor Inn early March 2023. We used 12 rooms and found that they were very clean, spacious and a joy to stay there. The management team went out of their way to assist us even going so far as buying extra chairs to put around the pool area so we could have our "happy hour" and daily presentations. WE all agree that next time we come to Mackay for a golf trip we'll definitely stay at the wonderful Mackay Motor Inn. Thank you Naomi and her team

Here you’ll find everything that you expect and need after a long road trip. Check in is super friendly and fuss-less, and then to be greeted by a spotless room - what bliss! Definitely on our list of fixed stays from now on when in the region!

the rooms need a thorough cleaning, not to mention some work done to them, ie power points don't work so couldn't use microwave unless you move it somewhere else around the room, and the rooms are not quiet, need some painting etc, they are advertised as fully refurbished. won't stat again.

I have just spent a couple nights in the Mackay Motor Inn. The MacKay Motor Inn has the following, good size rooms, a great quiet AC, good size TV free to air & FOXTEL, very good WiFi, fridge, toaster, microwave, great room service and quality meals, the best bed ever and I mean ever, quality sheets and awesome pillows with extras in the cupboard, extremely clean, ironing board, spacious bathroom with a place for toiletries, good shower, undercover parking, free coffee & tea, biscuits, cutlery, large and small plates, bowls, coffee mugs, tea towel and more, plus a pool & BBQ and awesome friendly helpful hosts. The bottom line, I always ask myself the question: "Would I stay here again?" I certainly would and will be staying at the Mackay Motor Inn the next time I'm in MacKay and so should you 😁

I work all over NSW and QLD, and stay in a lot of motels. First of all the couple that own the motel are two of the nicest people I have met. They also provide a room service for dinner in the evening. The food is that good I have not eaten anywhere else in Mackay. Rooms are comfortable and clean .
