We had a lovely meal in the restaurant. Best salad I have ever had! Staff were friendly and helpful as there was a power outage when we arrived and they gave us good tips on getting food etc. until the power was reinstated (no fault of theirs by the way!)

Kay Australia

Great location and proximity to the Townsville Mater Hospital - unfortunately we were in lovely Townsville for medical reasons. Motel was close to Hotel and great breakfast place. Owners were very friendly and professional.

Grant Australia

clean and convenient, the room was great, very welcoming staff, excellent bed and staff couldn’t do more to help

Naomi Australia

bed comfortable, room clean and tidy, location excellent

Ange Australia

Everyone talks about the location, comfortable beds etc, but I'd like to point out all the extras which made my stay so successful. Little things, like having cold water in the fridge that I didn't have to purchase. Like a ceiling fan and a window to open (I hate air-conditioning). Like mugs instead of stupid little cups, and best of all, milk in little bottles! Loved it all.

Marlene Australia

Clean, good location, restaurant available and laundry facilities.

Tania Australia

Breakfast was excellent. Served on time and great value.

Michael Australia

Colonial Rose Motel is centrally located. The rooms are excellent, larger than the average motel room, our room had a microwave, crockery, cutlery if we wanted to self cater. The rooms are very clean with comfortable beds and pillows. Breakfast is great and very reasonably priced. Our entire 4 night stay including breakfast and extras was less than my last 2 night accommodation only stay at a different venue in Townsville. The staff are exceptional, they met every need and request. Thank you to all for making our stay so comfortable. We highly recommend this lovely family owned and operated motel to anyone travelling to Townsville.
