Can anyone recommend a motel/hotel in Cloncurry qld

Boo Boo

We have stayed at the Gidgee Inn (tel 07 4742 1599, email info@gidgeeinn.com.au) a couple of times. It is on the highway, and convenient and comfortable. It charges around $150 for an Executive room with King bed.

My only reservation about this establishment is that, on the first occasion we stayed in August 2009, they increased the room rate by $5 between when they accepted my reservation and when we arrived, but did not advise me or invite me to accept or go elsewhere. I won the resulting argument, but they conceded only with a very bad grace.

Our second stay was a year later, and was fine.

Hi guys,

If you're travelling along the Landsborough Highway I can recommend the Walkabout Creek Hotel at McKinlay, a short distance before Cloncurry but with pleasant surroundings. We had a great feed and plenty of fun. The accomodation was basic but comfortable, or you can roll out the swag in the hotel yard.

Boo,
The Gidgee or the Leichhardt Hotel Motel are both good.

I see someone has recommended the Walkabout creek pub which is about 110k from the Curry.

I pass it sometmes and won't even buy a beer their. Personal view.

Boo Boo,

As well as the Leichardt Hotel, there is Central Hotel, with choice of budget & dearer accom. Also the Oasis Hotel, with cheap rooms(but pub always seems a bit of a bloodhouse to me, though have stayed there a few times with no dramas).

Further down Ramsay St, is the Wagon Wheel. The In-Laws stayed there once, on recommendation from RACQ. Think it was alright.

The Central butts onto the truck by-pass too, so don't know how noisy it would be. They are usually going slow, so mightn't be a worry.

Both the Oasis & Central are close to the BP road house too.

Hi

Always stay at the Post Office Hotel. Never a problem with motel like accomadation.

Their resturant is ok too IMHO. And good value price if I recall. If my wife was with me I may drink in the resturant part too.

cheers

Boo Boo,
Quick note - I linked you thread to the places system this is a new function I have just installed to the new updated places show page. It shows the accom in the area so when you get the answers would you be able to plese update the associated places and this will make the information available to everyone.

I would also ask others to consider adding the information to the associated places so that we can make good use of this resource. We are putting significant effort into a rewrite and are working on getting the information to you in the best fashion.

Enjoy
