Midlander Motor Inn in Emerald
Description
The Staff were friendly and helpful, room was clean and well kept. The room I was in included a Microwave, which is a nice inclusion. The guest laundry, which has one coin-op commercial washer and a dryer was in good repair and the location of this motel is fantastic. Only a short walk to pretty much anything you need.My only nitpick is the Internet speed is considerably slow compared to what Im used to on the coast. Averaging between 4-8Mbps (500-1000KBps). If you are staying for work you might need to BYO Mobile data, which is standard out west anyway and no fault of the motel.
MoreGreat rooms very clean
After my original hotel “lost” our booking and we’re completely unhelpful in finding us somewhere else to stay at 530pm, travelling from Brisbane with 3 children, the staff here were extremely helpful, polite and happy to help us out. The room was exceptionally clean, all amenities catered for and beds were very comfortable. Will be recommending this as a place to stay in Emerald. Thank you for your help!
MoreFriendly service, clean and nicely presented room, 3 mins walk to CBD. Well priced. Would choose again next visit to Emerald.
MoreWe booked a 2 bedroom family room sat 11th --sun 12th June 2022On arrival we were greeted by Nathan who directed us to our room which were very clean and maintainedWent on to point out resturants within walking distance also informed us of local markets on that nightAlso pointed out local tourist attractions around town and local area as well as the gem fields at Rubyvale only a 45 min drive each wayWould recommend this motel when staying in EmeraldJB and fellow travelers
MoreThe rooms are great. There is a decent kitchenette which is very helpful. The only reason I wouldnt give 5 stars is because getting one of the rooms next to the road means you hear traffic for much of the night/very early morning- especially trucks. Unfortunately the air-con unit fan wouldnt drown it out either.
MoreOur room was immaculate. There is very heavy traffic so advisable to ask for a room away from the road
MoreGood location, friendly staff and a clean pool included. Excellent that each room comes with a covered car port, however, each room is slightly too small. But, this does mean that the air conditioner does work well. Bathroom aren’t quite modern, but certainly are acceptable. Reasonable walk to food and drinks and the big easel. Would recommend.
MoreFriendly and polite owners, exceptionally clean and spacious rooms, close to food and supermarkets.
MoreBrilliant all round, wonderful staff, very clean, lovely pool, absolutely thrilled with the rooms.
MoreExcellent. Faultless. Really lovely staff, clean rooms, decent shower, comfy bed, fast wifi and good aircon!
MoreGreat stay. Clean. Comfy restful beds. Pool clean and welcoming.
We had a lovely stay in a nice convenient room, the cleaning staff were friendly and very helpful. Our one complaint is that we had to cut our stay short due to medical incident back at home.When we approached management to ask if we could maybe get a credit for a futures stay for the remaining night we had paid for. We were told quite bluntly that there was nothing they could do due to the fact that we had booked through "that nameless faceless big booking agency" (booking.com). Now I have owned management rights and it is a tough gig, and we always encouraged people to book directly through us when we could, but booking.com brings first timers to your business, your attitude brings them back. We would have definitely come back to Emerald to finish our holiday at a future time but due to this owners attitude, if we do come back it will not be at his business. We didnt want a refund or even the full amount on credit but had he said "how about we give you a $50 credit towards your next stay" - we had paid $150 we would have been back here in a shot. A bit disappointed that our otherwise great stay was soured by this attitude.
MoreVery comfortable experience. Close enough to walk into town for restaurants and far enough away from the highway to not hear road noise.
MoreAnother wonderful country style motel. So close to EVERYTHING - yet so quiet at night. Excellent rooms and bathroom. Great shower. Good parking. Close enough to walk to everything. Efficient service. We loved it.
MoreClean, friendly and good location to walk to town for dinner. (Suggest the Star for a steak, or Irish pub for Guinness/craft beers! Recommend Shelfield Coffee brewers for coffee, treats and toasties)Caretaker hosts were super friendly. Big quad family room, the lights outside all night were blocked out by good curtains - mostly! If in Rooms 1-10, you will be near the highway and whilst it isn’t very loud and didn’t worry us, some people might prefer other rooms, or bring earplugs just in case! Thanks guys. We would recommend to friends.
MoreReally nice place to stay in Emerald. Modern, clean & comfortable. Nearby quality eateries able to walk to.
MoreGood room and InternetComfortable bed and pillowShowers arent the biggest but fine for the purposeSimple tea and coffee facilities toasterIroning board and iron if you need
MoreBooked our room 8 months ago and reconfirmed a month ago. Just arrived and told that they only have a queen bed for 2 adults and 1 near-teenager. No roll out beds or foldaway as they are booked out. So essentially no bed for our child. Then got antsy when we asked what happened. Theyre only getting one star because they found us another room in a motel down the road.
MoreClean, tidy and a good sleep.Motel old, needs updating, pics on tge internet definately not what we got. Staff, v nice, they recommended a hotel for dinner certainly did not disappoint, meal excellent
MoreHugh rooms, fully equipped,spotlessly clean. Its a little bit difficult to find in the side street.extremlyhwlpfull management. And its close to all pubs and cafes.
MoreWonderful stay in Midlander Emerald. Managers were professional and accommodating as was all the friendly staff. Very comfortable bed which is paramount after a long drive and very clean. Thank you Midlander Staff
MoreExcellent place to stay in Emerald, modern spacious rooms some with kitchenettes, have stayed here before, staying tonight and will be staying here in the future.
MoreBig room and very clean. Close to pubs, shops etc. If I come through Emerald again will be more than happy to stay again here.
MoreAbsolutely loved our 2 nights stay in there. Spotless, big family room, very comfortable with 2 single beds and a queen or double bed... can’t remember because I had the best sleep for long time. My pillow was sooo soft, better than my own!Managers were lovely...fresh towels after first night...We would go back anytime and happily recommend this Midlander Motor Inn to everyone. Thank you team 😊
MoreVery nice rooms reasonably priced really clean just a bit priced on drinks and snacks appart from that all good
MoreNice rooms, clean and spacious. Good facilities. I missed the compendium with info on food deliveries or places in walking distance as I had no transport.
MoreArrived in Emerald after a long drive from Longreach (After two nights in over priced accommodation), but came across this Motel on Expedia "Just price checking/reviews" and once we had established in which Motels to stay in we rang The Midlander Motor Inn and had spoken to a very well mannered & helpful reception as we were just inquiring about pricing...They had offered us $120.00 for the night compared to Expedia which was $133.00 on their website, so we had booked it straight away & turned up shortly after..Again, the staff were welcoming, friendly & very helpful as we wanted to check out the room before checking in. The room itself (Room #17were spacious, very clean & tasteful, so we went back & confirmed everything to check in.The only down side really was the Queen size bed was very uncomfortable & felt small (The morning after), and the Liquid Body wash soap in the shower real soap would have been nice but a great location overall close to all eateries/restaurants, BWS, Woolworths etc all at walking distance! Just ask the great staff at reception.So great accommodation except for those little things & we do highly recommend that you book or ring them directly for their best rate to give them the full support, instead of them paying those big booking companies from overseas high commissions..SO Lets ALL support these guys here in Western QLD and book through them!! Regardless of what establishment it is..
MoreThe nicest and helpful management and cleaning staff. Very comfortable and well maintained rooms. Best place too stay in Emerald. Could not recommended this hotel more. Love my stay there so much
MoreAffordable, comfortable, super clean accomodation. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Rooms were spacious and tasteful. Definitely the best accomodation in Emerald and surrounding areas!
MoreProbably the best motel we have ever stayed at!! Very welcoming and clean. Very cheerful gentleman indeed managing the place. Thanks a lot for making our weekend above excellent.
MoreSo clean and quiet, was relaxing to stay here after our big drive. Definately would recommend to stay here again
MoreBeautifully presented rooms, great location but still quiet and relaxing. Staff are friendly and helpful.
MoreMy second overnight in a couple of weeks. Great service, comfy quiet room and generous breakfast (and great yummy too). Thank you and see you again.
MoreSuper accommodating (closed but got through on phone and owners waited for me to get inreally friendly, awesome location, impeccably clean room.Quietly really impressed, probably one of the most inviting places I’ve had the pleasure of staying at, would definitely recommend! Thanks very much for a great stop!
MoreThank you Paula for making us feel very welcome. Our room was clean and bright with a lovely comfortable bed. We wish you all the best as new managers.
MoreAfter a long drive, a warm welcome, a dip in the wonderful pool and 11 hours solid kip in the comftable bed with decent pillows after a good shower with soap, shampoo etc provided, whats not to like?
MoreVery clean, comfy bed. Room well set out with well organised drawer with tea making facilities.Will stop again
MoreMyself and my family recently stayed here on a trip west to longreach. The couple who run this motor inn were amazing people. Making us feel very welcome, and couldnt do enough to make our short stay enjoyable. The rooms were big, modern clean and very comfortable. In fact we decided to stay again on our return trip and re-booked our room before leaving on the first visit. Highly recommend this motel, especially if you have a family

MoreWe travel 2+ hours from out of town to Emerald for shopping and appointments, we choose to stay at this motel for it’s location, cleanliness and great staff , we have noticed new management a few times on our stays and we have found them all to be very welcoming and more than happy to help, this time on our stay management was very disappointing!! not a pleasant couple .
MoreWould not stay there again mixed our booking up but did get a room (had booked for outward and homeward journey weeks before and had also rang the day before to confirm booking .The excuse given was that there were other bookings of the same surname.Pulled up there on the way home only to be told the room was $20dearer Definitely would not stay with these inept people again.
MoreBeen traveling about 3.5K klms through NSW and Qld. Hands down best country hotel on this trip. Everything was just right. Decor, sheets and towels, bed, and the little things that are important like a hook in the bathroom, sufficient power points, spare pillows and great lighting. Really nice couple who were managing too. Can’t recommend highly enough.
MoreVery friendly and helpful owners. Rooms in great condition for the price. Will definitely stay again when Im back in emerald
MoreAwesome motel. The rooms a clean and large, the pool area is nice but it is the service that stands out. From early check-ins to requesting a specific room nothing is to much trouble. Great job comfort inn. If this review help please like 👍
MoreVery clean place and has large rooms. Love the fact that they provide large bottles of shampoos and body wash. Close by good restaurants. Friendly staff. Cant complain!
MoreGreat shower pressure!Robert Timms coffee and fresh milk (not LL)Very clean spacious rooms. Comfortable bed.Great parking.Very well maintained.
MoreThe beds were comfortable, reception was efficient and pleasant. Great shower. Pleasant experience overall. Vehicles were under cover outside of our room.
More3 stars only because there is no restaurant, the office closes early at 8pm, and not too much storage space (lots of space in the rooms, just no drawers or shelves for clothes). Room very clean, modern and spacious, with basic cooking amenities. No dooner on the bed, double sheeted with a blanket between. Bathroom large, but I think I had a disabled bathroom, it looked a bit surgical. Sink is quite small, and not so much space to lay your stuff out, no vanity. A bit short of storage space, I like to unpack my stuff as I travel a lot and hate living out of a suitcase, so putting my stuff in in drawers and shelves gives it a more homely feel. There are chargeback arrangements with some local restaurants, and one with an Italian restaurant that delivers, however trying to get a delivery inside their advertised hours resulted in being told the kitchen was closed. The motel (it is a motelis however within walking distance of nearly every restaurant, pub, bar, shopping centres and the CBD in Emerald, and there are some pretty decent restaurants. I havent tried it in a while but The Capricornian used to be tops. Western Gateway Hotel and the Irish Village Pub also excellent feeds. There were relief hosts managing when I was there, and they were very professional, friendly and accommodating. Ive been to nearly every motel in Emerald, and if this one had a restaurant for evening meals it would be tops. All in all, not too bad. As a small anecdote, I believe the Governor General stayed there in 2008.
MoreReception staff were very friendly and helpful, a huge thanks for the dinner recommendation! The room was very clean and comfortable. I had a lovely stay.
