We had a lovely last minute family getaway, staying at Pialba Motor Inn. The room was comfortable and clean. Our son enjoyed the pool area. We would definitely stay here again.

Rooms are what they are, the bed was too hard for me, but each to his own. The pool area is lovely, value for money.

The Motel was extremely peaceful, the pool was to die for and I went a bought bathers to go for a swim. I haven’t been in a pool for over 10yrs. The owner and manager were extremely friendly and welcoming. I loved my stay at this location. Thank you for your hospitality. I look forward to seeing the place once all the renovations are complete.

Property was walking distance to coffee shop and food outlets but still in a quiet location. Lovely area around hotel pool. Room was big and had all the essentials. Parking on site was good. Couldn't walk from motel to beach but still handy location in Hervey bay. Happy to recommend this motel.

Finally a budget place getting it "right"! Even at a level 5-star hotels do not! We mean everything: shower, WC paper, pool area, room, beds you name it. We will be back many times to this superb motel in cute great Hervey Bay.

This place is a hidden gem! Perfect for families! The pool and hot spa were amazing, the room big and clean! They even have a microwave/fridge in the room. It was quiet and relaxing. I found it actually much more enjoyable than a resort as it was all ground level. The gardens are tidy and parking right at the door.

Really great little Motor Inn. We had an issue with some water leaking on the floor in our room, but we let the staff know immediately so it was on their radar, and they were super apologetic and accomodating. Everything else was great; very clean bathroom, full size fridge, and nice clean sheets/bedding. Noise transfer between the rooms was barely noticeable - so pretty quiet as well. Would stay here again if I needed to come to Hervey Bay again.

We were early and the staff seen us and greeted us promptly and were extremely welcoming, the grounds were emaculate. The room it self was very large and again emaculate, the only thing i had a issue with was finding the fan switch, but when i laid down in bed found it behind the bed side lamp 😂

When I checked in at about 2.30pm, I was told that the room that I had booked for and paid at the time of booking was not available - it had been double booked. So I was put in a unit with single beds. Not as good as the room I had booked. I was not impressed. Will call potential motel direct next time. Very poor with Wotif. I haven't had this problem with other booking sites.
