No complaints. Room was lovely and the bed was excellent. One minor thing I'd like to mention was there were no drinking or wine glasses and no coffee mugs only tea cups.

Appeared to be busy, car parking was available at my room. Also it was so quiet especially in the morning as no noise woke me as people left earlier than I needed to. Would stay again. 🙂🙂🙂🙂

Old but located in a central location in Emerald

We stayed at this motel because it was the closest accommodation to an event we were attending in Emerald. For one night, it was fine, and not overpriced. However, it is an old motel and in dire need of renovation. The exterior and gardens also require some TLC also and none of the photos actually reflect the true appearance of the motel. The bed was comfy and the air conditioner worked a treat. We received good communication from the staff prior to our stay with accurate instructions detailing the check in process.

Can only get better

The Emerald Central Hotel is in the throes of updating. At the moment it is still a little tired. But the bed was comfortable,the shower hot, and it was very convenient to shops.

I never met any staff as I checked in after they closed 2 pm on Saturday . They did make timely contact and I grabbed my key from night safe .Rather large complex so walked around looking for room .Bit tired after long day on the road so that was a lil off. A map was mentioned but - would have been handy - maybe there is one somewhere Clean tidy comfortable - maybe a little old dated but o probs . works happening in footpath - barriers etc .
