What guests think

At Tweed River Motel, travelers highlight the scenic riverside setting and friendly, accommodating hosts, while noting simple, older rooms that are generally comfortable, good overall value, and convenient access for day trips to nearby coastal towns and attractions.

Reviews frequently mention clean rooms, though a few report issues like bathroom mould, dirty fans, grubby linens, or tired maintenance. Facilities are basic; in-room kitchenettes are handy, and one review noted an issue with the pool's cleanliness. Continental breakfast is available with mixed feedback, and nearby eateries are convenient. Expect a modest, good-value stopover with warm service.

Lovely stay, room has a full fridge along with some cutlery and crockery, was nice and clean and staff were great. Our room had a nice balcony overlooking the river, was quite serene. Could get loud if you had noisy neighbouring rooms, but we were mostly fine.

Great lodge and the front desk staff (kerry) was quite welcoming and helpful. We had a river front room which was a plus to our stay as the view from the balcony was quite scenic amongst other things.

Property in a beautiful lication if you have a river view otherwise if you step outside. Easy access to nearby places of interest and a courtesy bus to local restaurant that is very good a great perk.

The Motel was very clean, had all needs for short stay, breakfast included. Rooms and decor were modern, neat and very comfortable. Had queen bed and mini bar at very reasonable prices. The perfect stop after a long drive, was well worth a little detour off the highway. definitely making this a regular stop on our trips to and from the Sunshine Coast.

Staff were very lovely, the property had mould in the bathroom ,the ceiling fan was well overdue for a clean too, bathroom cupboard had obvious water damage as well as some small holes in the walls and door which could’ve been an easy fix, and the pool was very murky so we didn’t swim in it. Despite these things the property and surrounds were tidy, lawns mowed, staff were very friendly and we were offered a continental breakfast too which we as lovely. Overall you get what you pay for.

We booked a last minute River View room...unfortunately there would be a view if the trees had been maintained. Room very basic but clean sheets & towels and comfortable bed. Shower good. Kitchen area had microwave, kettle & toaster and a very large fridge freezer. Cutlery & plates etc all mixed match. Peaceful lication but it seems everywhere clises on a Monday so had to drive to find a restaurant.

Booked a non-refundable room that Hotels.com clearly stated was available. When arrived, advised there was no room available. Bob, the proprietor was great. The issue was with the booking app. Another guest had booked the last room with another app literally 5 minutes before I booked and paid. The app did not update as it should have. Luckily Bob had a room that had not been cleaned due to a late afternoon check-out. He offered to either clean it or contact another property on our behalf and give us a credit towards another hotel. We were very impressed with Bob's attitude and were very happy to wait so he retained the business. The motel is somewhat old but kept in good nick. Bob is a great host. We will certainly stay there again when next in the region.
