Michael
I had a really enjoyable stay at this hotel in Yungaburra. The attention to detail in the rooms was impressive, with quaint little touches that made it feel cozy and comfortable. The bed was particularly comfortable, with a warm duvet that provided a great night's sleep. The hotel is also conveniently located within walking distance to places in Yungaburra village, making it easy to explore the area. The breakfast was delicious, especially the exquisite muesli.
All was perfect, no improvements needed.

Very friendly staff and a warm and friendly atmosphere at the motel. The design was attractive, with individual patio areas and well laid out garden and communal gazebo and barbecue area. Great location close to the village section of Yungaburra, down the quiet end.
Sound carried outside from other guests. Although the guest info book made it clear that loud noise was not tolerated after 9.30pm, there was no mention about keeping noise levels down in the morning which is when it was a nuisance. This was due to one noisy group of 4 (2 couples) - not a problem in the evening when the good-natured banter between them was just background noise, but in the morning it disturbed my sleep and was very irritating. A door to the toilet area would have been good to help with privacy. Also the fan in the bathroom area was loud, but could not put the light on without having the fan on too.

the lodge is really fantastic. The owners are very friendly and it is all soo clean and neat :) Additionally the location is extremely quiet which may be such a huge plus (it is for me ;-) It is also very well located as it is close to the various natural attractions from the Tableland.
The beds were a bit too soft but this is personal. The village and even Atherton (ca 10 km away) have not a huge offering for restaurants. However there is a french restaurant not far away which may have been an option if it would not have been closed.

The accommodation is conveniently located near the town's restaurants and city centre. You can easily walk to see the platypus and experience the village's well-manicured gardens. The owners provide a personalised service and ensure the rooms are clean and comfy with fluffy towels and crisply-ironed sheets. Many past guests have praised the friendly and professional reception staff.
The parking isn't situated directly outside the rooms, but it doesn't significantly detract from the positive elements of this stay.

We recently escaped for a romantic weekend and the lush, tranquil gardens surrounding our room were the perfect setting. The room décor was pleasing, and the location made it easy to walk to nearby attractions. We particularly enjoyed the friendly service and the provision of utensils for our barbeque dinner.
Although the bed was comfortable, pillows weren't to our liking, leading to some restless sleep. we missed having the option of making toast in our room.

Super friendly owners (who are unfortunately retiring soon) and a great location bang in the middle of the village and not far from platypus spotting grounds! Great place!! Great breakfast!

This hotel exceeded my expectations in so many ways. the attention to detail was superb - from the quaint little touches in the rooms to the well-maintained gardens outside. Secondly, the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, providing great tips for exploring the nearby village. Lastly, the breakfast was simply exquisite. The muesli, served with local yoghurt, was a delightful start to the day.
All was just right, no complaints at all.
