What guests think

At Burke & Wills Mt Isa, travellers repeatedly praise the friendly, welcoming staff, clean and comfortable rooms, and the central location close to shops and dining, with secure on-site parking and straightforward late arrivals making stays feel easy and safe.

However, multiple reviews report significant noise from the nearby club and traffic, particularly on weekend nights. Room quality is generally solid, though a few noted dated or poorly maintained bathrooms, dull lighting, or mould, and one stay found the pool closed. Some guests also felt the price was high for the quality. Overall, expect a practical stopover with strong convenience but potential for nighttime noise.

The accommodation was very comfortable with fenced on site parking. The property is a 2 storey building with no lifts, so only stairs. If there is a mobility issue you would need to request a ground floor room.

The rooms are advertised as soundproof, this is the reason I booked at the Burke and Wills and they had a pool, the rooms are in-fact not sound proof! Complete false advertising and robbery, we didn’t get to sleep until after 3:30am after the buffs club across the road closed, I asked to change rooms the next morning as we were booked in for a 2 night stay, I was advised by Carrol ‘it is our fault for arriving late’ and ‘it's mount isa what do you expect’, some training in customer service would be beneficial, I bumped into the guests in the room next to us in the morning and they had a horrible sleep aswell, the pool was also closed. . I will never be staying here again, mould in the shower, someone else’s towels hanging in bathroom on arrival, a rude robbery.
