CQ Motel Gladstone

What guests think

Across many reviews, CQ Motel Gladstone is praised for very clean, spacious rooms with exceptionally comfortable beds, solid value for money, and practical touches like easy on-site parking plus a small pool that guests appreciate after a warm day.

Many guests highlight the handy pub and other eateries across the road, though a few report late-night noise, especially on weekends.

Checking in was so quick and easy. The room was very clean with super comfy beds and nice big car parks. Paul? at front desk was very helpful and recommended the pub across the road for dinner which was also fantastic. This will be a regular stopover for us. Highly recommend!

Stayed for one night - so clean and tidy - better value than more expensive places I have stayed at. Bed was so comfy. We stayed on a Saturday night so there was a bit of noise late into the night as there is a pub and restaurant over the road (there was Karaoke), but otherwise fantastic. Will stay here again. Thanks

I booked online and knew we would be after reception hours. I called right away, the reservation showed and the fella in reception was super friendly, put the key in the outside safe and texted me the code. Very easy. We arrived after dark so couldn't really see the exterior. The room was quiet, newly renovated and very nicely done. Clean, comfortable and with dishes cutlery etc. Have already recommended to colleagues.

I stayed for 2 nights and on the first morning the pub across the road proceeded to pressure was the road first thing in the morning, then on the second night found I had no cold running water which made showering impossible without 3rd degree burns - nothing but a “thanks for the feed back” from owner when I told him.
