Mackay Hotels with Bars

Amazing room, thought i could live there! It had a washing machine and a dishwaser and lounge room. The bedroom was lovely too, sliding mirror cupboards nd a tv. The bed was so comfy too, wish i could have stayed longer. Also the shower pressure was great! You know how hotel showers can be iffy, this one was hot and good presure. Also had a bath which was great to relax after a long day. Only thing i didn't love was the fact the iron was steamless. I understand that's probably safety. It did the trick.

Good value for what i paid for. Great location. Room is clean, facilities are up to my expectations. The only thing i might want to change is the lighting. My room was quite dark, make it less cozy, i like the idea of light switch next to the bed side table, very convenient. But my room doesnt have an electric socket next to the bed, so cant really be on my phone while lying down. Other than that, the service was excellent, i only stayed for 2 nights but they make sure to give me room service, which was excellent. Will come back if i need to spend some time in Mackay

We've always stayed at the Rose, Lynda and John were great hosts and the breakfast (included) was great, the restaurant nice and handy with well cooked meals - sadly this time around we've decided we won't be back - room was OK but furniture old and battered, the fridge almost falling through the base of the cupboard which was chipboard - restaurant no longer operating and nothing was working with the 'free' breakfast - the water in the urn lukewarm, the toasting machine playing up and very basic spreads for toast, a few cereals, and that was it. Only white bread offered and had to dig in the bread packet like everyone else was digging - not very hygienic in my opinion. We ended up giving breakfast a miss after the first day, very disappointed that the new owner hasn't done anything about improving this tired old lady.

Booked 4 Rooms in June for ourselves and family. The rooms were very nice and spacious and provided all the necessary items for a comfortable stay. The pool area was supposed to be completed and unfortunately it was not. We booked a table for 16 for dinner. What a disappointment. Extremely small portions and meals were coming out which had not been ordered but were accepted as it took well over an hour for food to come out. Breakfast was great with generous portions, so a big tick there. They do not offer a buffet breakfast, order off the menu. Food prices were OK apart from for example Garlic Turkish Bread at $14 Would I stay again-perhaps. Would I have dinner or lunch there again - absolutely NOT

On our yearly long haul to the Far North, Mackay is always a stopping off point. Having found the Shamrock Gardens Motel, sometimes I think I should start spending more than just a night here. It's convenient passing through either north or south; has a great pub next door with a great bistro; the motel is not brand new but it's clean, comfortable, beds are great, and includes a continental breakfast in your room. My only annoyance with any accommodation provider, is over time, replace plastic kettles with stainless steel ones. Some guests on our last visit decided they wanted to yell and wake everyone up at midnight. Hope it stays this way.

I stayed here for a work trip. With undercover parking right at the room door, it meant the car wasn’t sitting in the sun getting hot! The room was clean & comfortable. With 2 queen sized beds I was able to take my pick. Being on a main road also means they are easy to find. There is also plenty of food options close by should you wish to eat out, or you can try the on-site restaurant.

Check-in went fine, young lady was polite. Got into our room to wind down and the streaming service for the television was not working. Tried multiple times following the guide on the service without success, so called for assistance. Young man came to the room, wasn't knowledgeable on the system and after pressing the same buttons and suggesting Bluetooth, (there was no suggestion that this was an option?), we were left with ”Well I'm not sure, sorry” and he walked out. There was no discussion of other options to resolve the matter, (other rooms were available), or to discuss this with his manager and have a form of compensation offered, (not that it was expected but that is hospitality and customer service. Someone is paying a lot of money for things to work, and not to have to muck around when they are staying with you at the property, or are using your restaurant and bar). Decided we would go and have an early dinner and the staff behaviour was something I have not seen before after many years in hospitality. The chef was in and out of the kitchen walking quickly through the bar area multiple times, back and forward into but never carrying anything? (And yes there was an event in the event room beside us, but still didn't make sense or appear professional). Bar and wait staff seemed disengaged, considering it was quiet. Entree was very average, bruschetta was piled high with avocado, VERY little tomato mixed through, balsamic glaze was there, with a beetroot plate flare, but every flavour was sadly lost to the avocado. Mains were lovely, steak was cooked perfectly. Bed was very comfortable, hot water was speratic but pressure was nice. Overall had heard great things about the property after researching for a special place to stay, but left feeling rather disappointed. Unfortunately won't be staying again.

Both of the young ladies who booked me in were very helpful and pleasant also the same thing with the lady who checked me out, it was lovely to have a cheerful greeting and smile when you have been driving all day. I had the chicken parmy and a drink from room service, it was lovely and also nice and hot still. The only negative was trying to find the car park!!! Maybe I'm getting old lol

Rooms are modern, clean, comfortable and quiet! Everything you want when you're away from home. Check-in and check out was easy with the lovely staff. We are frequent visitors to Mackay and will happily choose to stay at the Mackay Resort Motel again.
