Mackay Hotels near Mackay Showgrounds

Easy access to rooms, basic but clean — I was told no daily service however my towels were changed daily so — bonus if you need that.
Breakfast bar but no evening meals, pool on location too.

I would definitely stay here again based on the service alone. The rooms were also better than other motels I've stayed at — spacious, super clean (even the carpet! ) and comfy beds.

Wonderful place to stay. You can see a view of the whole city from your rooms as there are no other tall buildings around, rooms are modern, clean and feel luxurious.

Cannot fault this property! From the incredible service when checking in right through until our departure morning. Beautiful note and treats left for us. Nice little touches mean alot for sure!

Quite a good room but the TV didn’t work. Convenient with The Shamrock Hotel across the road for a good feed. Quite spacious and comfy bed.

We recently stayed at the Tropic Coast Motel for one night while my daughter had a specialist medical appointment, and it was exactly what we needed.

Check-in was a breeze, room was very clean & the bed was very comfortable. Being a work trip, it was great to have a good night's sleep. Friendly staff all round. Thank you again!

Very welcoming staff. Not the cleanest room u could find and the bathroom is a bit old. Otherwise all functionable appliances with all u need for a night stay.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Stay!
I had a wonderful experience at the International Lodge Motel. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well maintained.

I have stayed at International Lodge Motel several times and it continues to exceed my expectations.

My 9 year old daughter had really wonderful things to say about our stay here. The staff were super lovely, the apartment was so spacious and she especially loved the pool.

Very clean and well equipped apartment. Absolutely everything we needed and so easy to walk out the back gate to the promenade walk to Caneland. We’ll definitely return.

Absolutely outstanding service from the manager Paddy and his wife. They really went the extra mile.
Rooms are spotlessly clean, very helpful and cheerful cleaning staff.

Paddy the manager went out of his way to assist when our car broke down. I have never stayed at a hotel and been given the service he provided.

We recently stayed here for a couple nights. The room was quite spacious and well kept, also loved the bonus of having a washer and dryer.

We had our daughters 21st at the Metropolitan last night 13/6/2026 and I could not fault a thing. The platters were amazing and great value for money.

Room was nice and clean & had everything we needed, for being on a main road it was actually quiet.

Clean, comfortable and great service. We were so impressed that we will definitely be back. Thanks for a great stay.

Allows dogs in the room. Clean and quiet at night. Very comfortable after a big drive.

Owner of the motel is very understanding and a great guy. Had some troubles on booking. Com and he gave us a free night for the stuff around.

First of all, I would like to commend the owners of the place. Although I arrived well before the official check-in time (11:00), I was still given the room I had booked.

The continental breakfast is great value with a pancake maker, toast, cereal, coffee and juice. The select dinner menu includes pizza, parmi and amazing rib fillet steak and is extremely well priced.

Cute little motel and easily accessible. Rooms are beautifully clean and comfortable. Love the original details, feels extra homely. Will be requesting to stay every time we pass through town now.

We had an unscheduled visit to Mackay and were in need of accommodation at short notice. Most accommodation in town was fully booked due to a large sports carnival in town.

Convenient location. Friendly staff with lock box for late check-in and plenty of parking. Our room was spacious, modern and clean with a comfortable king sized bed.

Positive Review:
We had a very comfortable stay at The Alara Motor Inn. The room was clean and comfortable, and the food was absolutely amazing.

Our experience has been very positive, check in was smooth and the staff was excellent. The manager the face of the Motor Inn was warm sincere and very polite and kind.

The host was very friendly and helpful!
I had to check in late at night, but the response was quick and the late check-in system was very well organised and easy to follow.

The Rydges Mackay Suites is my preferred hotel on business and personal trips. The service is excellent and the best in town.

Went on a little get away for the weekend with my husband and the hotel is amazing. There was a lovely girl at reception her name serinity I believe and she was absolutely amazing.

Looks like you guys have done a lot of work renovating, nice job 👏… Loved everything about it. Only negative is now my wife wants one of those mirrors 😆

Very happy with our stay. I booked the family room and was very happy with it. Comfortable beds, good shower pressure, and very little noise from the main road.

As a business, we have been booking our operators in at White Lace Motor Inn for years now, for short term and sometimes for stays up to a month.

Good central location, easy to find, easy access to the city centre for a meal, clean quiet and comfortable. All we needed for an overnight stay driving Brissy to Cairns.

Very comfortable, clean, and quiet. The staff at the front desk were very welcoming and friendly.

Wonderful, friendly service. Low price yet beautifully clean rooms and modern ammenities. Very comfortable bed and great air cons. I won’t stay anywhere else besides here in Mackay again.

Travelling for work, and got one of the last rooms in the budget section, usually used by workers. It was clean and comfortable, and had a good nights sleep.

We were very impressed with the large room, spacious ensuite, laundry facilities, desk, large balcony and generous breakfast.
We would definitely return. Thank you.

I stay here every time I have work booked in Mackay at least 4 times a year, Rooms a comfortable and clean, great location and awesome value. 10/10 would recommend.

Check in service was great, bed was comfortable for a good night sleep 😴. Price was very reasonable compared to other places.

The room was in perfect conditions, really good housekeeping. Also the owners were really nice with us! Highly recommend it!

We stayed for 2 nights. The place was comfy and clean. Staff were nice and helpful. A hassle free stay is what you need on your holiday.

Been a few times now, great staff, great rooms, clean, location great, I do and have recommended galaxy motor inn to others.

Close to where we needed to be. Room was clean, bed comfy and so tp the pillows. Road is very busy and noisy at night with trucks but overall would probably stay again.

I stayed there 2 weeks ago and absolutely loved that they accept pets, I will certainly go back. The lady owner was a delight to talk to. The hotel and room are simple which does not bother me at all.

Our room was lovely and within our budget. We were a late check in which staff accommodated and were super helpful with.

We love this hotel and especially this stay.

Our family arrived late in the evening (after a 12 hour drive) ant the Oaks Carlyle and the team went above and beyond to ensure we were settled quickly.

The hosts could not have been more helpful. Highly recommend this place purely on the hospitality shown to us. The motel is a little on the old side, but clean and very handy to great restaurants.

Rooms are Simple, clean and cheap.
Shower hot and great pressure. Bed is comfortable. For me, for an overnighter, perfect.
Staff were wonderful.
