Nice rooms that were very clean and well equipped. Could be noisy outside with cars coming and going but that’s what you expect at a motor lodge/ motel. Handy for shops etc. and Bundaberg centre .Would use agin if in the area.

The outside of the property made me a little nervous but walking into reception all worries disappeared! Lovely lady at the front desk with a contagious laugh! Rooms were updated, modern feel and clean! Ordered breakfast which was delicious and affordable. Would recommend all a visit here

Check in was easy with very friendly Managers. Pool area nice and tidy. Rooms are great, they have been refurbished. Some roadside noise, but it was a great 1 night stay for us passing through. Food within walking distance, across and down the road. Handy location. Very comfortable.

Easy walk from train station and walking distance to shops, food etc. I only had nights stay after late train arrival. Room was good size, clean, well equipped. It's on main road so some traffic noise to be expected. Not certain what they mean by non smoking property (main reason I booked) as there are tables and chairs outside each room with ash trays. Other guests out smoking when I left. Maybe it's a cultural difference in what non smoking means re accommodation in Australia or there is a no smoking part of biulding I couldn't see. But for me disappointed on that level.

Very happy with my stay
The hospitality shown by Anthony from check-in to check-out was exceptional, including providing replacement supplies of milk. The refurbished rooms are fantastic, and the place was spotlessly clean (including the air con filter, which is often overlooked). There are many restaurants and take away options nearby, and the location is very close to all attractions.

Hi Murray, What a beautiful review we are very proud of the motel and our hospitality.

Well-designed room, great kitchenette
We liked the room. The room was newly renovated and clean. The room design was well-thought with lots of bench and storage space which is very handy when travelling so stuff aren’t scattered around the room. Kitchenette with a big sink was great! Only con was there was no exhaust fan in the toilet, but can be easily fixed with air freshener. Will recommend the place.

Perfect Central Bundaberg Stay
My partner and I are away from home a great deal and we are in agreement that Chalet Motor Inn was excellent in every way. Pre-arrival communications from the relief manager Tanya were friendly, efficient and welcoming. The room was beautifully designed, quiet and spacious and included touches such as fresh milk, facial tissues, shower cap, biscuits, extra pillows, microwave and fridge etc. Staff could not have done more for us, so welcoming and genuinely happy to help. Clearly Tanya and her husband love their work and the Chalet - it comes across in every interaction. Would stay here again and highly recommend it to others visiting Bundy. Thanks 🙏 for a great stay.
