Because I stayed for 4 nights I was put in the former manager's residence (2 neighbouring motels in Barcaldine have been combined into one) so had large lounge and dining area, 2 bedrooms, bathroom, and an enormous kitchen. When I stayed here for one night two years ago I had a standard room and it had everything I needed. Motel has a reasonable sized pool but weather wasn't quite warm enough to use it. Barbecue area beside the pool is a nice place to sit and read. Very convenient location at the T intersection of the two highways. Everything is within walking distance. Cornetts IGA supermarket just around the corner is particularly convenient.

Dodgy wi-fi and no ABC signal on the TV.

Located very centrally in town right on the crossroads, check in was easy. The staff member was extremely helpful in pointing us to the self-contained cabins. The cabins facilities were excellent, fully contained with cutlery, plates, fridge, microwave and stove top. Only a short walk into town to the IGA to get supplies for our weekend. The pool area was well maintained & BBQ area was clean and tidy. The laundry amenities were excellent, cheap to use and free at reasonable times. The area was quiet, only the occasional road noise from a road train. Beds were comfortable, rooms were serviced daily with fresh towels & the air-conditioning worked a treat! Check out was easy even though we left at 3am with a drop box to make for easy check out.

The only thing that I could pick about our whole stay was that the shower was small, for us it was okay but a larger individual may have struggles or those with mobility issues.

We were in one of the cabins and in relation to the one we had it was very spacious and tidy. We were in cabin 39 which is very close to the pool. Pool is nice however even thought he days we stayed had highs in the mid 30 degree C the water was very cold so we did not stay in there long. The meals in the attached restaurant are large especially the rump. Staff were very friendly and extremely helpful when our son accidentally locked the toilet door in the cabin. We stayed here instead of Longreach as the price was much cheaper, the photos looked nicer than the ones in Longreach and it was only about 1 hour travel to there. We were very happy that we made this decision.

There was only thing that I would say was truly bad at this location and that was the lounge/sofa - it had basically collapsed and was horrible to sit on even with extra pillows from the bedrooms. If this had of been comfortable to use then we would have scored this property with a 9 verging onto a 10.

I stayed at the Barcaldine Country Motor Inn after a trip out in the bush. I was very impressed by the cleanliness, comfort and service of this motel. The room was spacious, well-equipped and had a nice view. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was modern and spotless. The staff were friendly and helpful in particular the young man at the pool. The motel also has a pool and a restaurant next door which were great. The location is convenient and I would highly recommend this motel to anyone looking for an over-night quality stay in Barcaldine. It was a great value for money and a pleasant experience. Thank you Barcaldine Country Motor Inn for making my trip easier and more enjoyable!

We were in one of the cabins and in relation to the one we had it was very spacious and tidy. We were in cabin 39 which is very close to the pool. This was an overnight stay on our return trip from Mount Isa and the second time we stayed here and we got the same cabin as the trip up.

We have stayed here before. Location is great, walking distance to most attractions and the Main Street. Well presented gardens, pool area and barbecue facilities. Undercover parking. We stayed in the cabins which have a lovely veranda. Very neat, tidy, clean motel. Shower area was a great, lovely hot water, plenty of pressure also. Much appreciated. They also provided pool towels which was a nice touch.

The cabin we had, the toilet button was sticking which didn’t allow the water to shut off until we fiddled with the buttons. The bed mattress was also very, very soft which caused us to roll towards the middle each night making it a little difficult to get a good nights rest. Neither of the above was mentioned to management before departure.

Firstly, the staff are so friendly and genuinely care. I had to change my booking date and their communication was exceptional. Then I arrived and they were welcoming and remembered me. The facilities are fantastic and the beds are super comfortable. Cabins are spotless. They have in room dinner and breakfast services. Plenty of parking. Gorgeous, old fashioned and genuine hospitality. Gold star worthy, especially after a 9 hour road trip.

Dinner and Breakfast met expectations, Hamburger and chips for tea and Savoury Mince on toast. Comfortable room with plenty of hot water for showers.

A blind which kept opening by itself, we tied it off and this solved the problem. Front desk advised on departure. Rooms a little dated but comfortable.

Beautifully presented and fresh smelling room and the gardens and covered car parking adds to the general comfort and ambience. The pride taken in this motel by the owners and housekeeping staff is readily apparent. Your efforts are noticed and appreciated. A lovely motel in a lovely town.

This is what I would expect a motor inn to be like. We traveled from Perth to Cairns stopping at a number of places along the way, and this is the only stop that met expectations. All others were decrepit and some rooms were downright dirty. Extra to this, Barcaldine is a lovely little town and one of the more affordable stops we made.

Really, nothing. It met expectations 100%.
