Original North Australian

Older style motel , very clean and comfortable. Great shower and good food available to the room from the bistro. Easy walk to supermarket and front beach. Far better than I expected for the price.

Some noise and music from neighbouring venues but to be expected when in a central downtown location. Wore earplugs to bed and had a great nights sleep.

Our room was exceptionally clean & quiet. Great motel. Had a yummy meal at pub which was right next door.

Central location and price

Room was overly cramped, hot water kept cutting out

The cleanliness, the comfort of the bed ,the hot water and good water pressure in showerThat's it

The lighting in room no side bed table light, the decor is old and white,no love into attention to details to make you feel like at homeGood stop if you workingJust a pub accommodation

Very clean and tidy, staff were friendly and helpful...great location, walking distance to where we needed to go.

Location Great .Meals good value & lovely staff

I lived in Bowen for 20 years. It's good to come home once a month. The staff are ever so helpful and extremely accommodating of my needs. Lovely and clean, nice and safe a and in the heart of town. It's my go to hotel to stay at.

Central location; easy access/checkin after hours; the rooms are always exceptionally clean; aircon cold; big shower; great water pressure.The Australian is always a pleasure for an overnight stop when travelling up and down the coast - Bowen is a lovely little spot.

Room was clean & comfortable. Loved the little bedside tables (I know they are a bonus item). Decent sized shower & good water pressure. Staff were friendly. Parking off road (although not necessarily directly at your door) Close to everything.

Parking was a little awkward but manageable. A little noisy on Friday/Saturday night (naturally) but I was quite close to the road - still able to easily get a good sleep.

central location to town centre

rooms 1 & 2 are a little noisy as the road noise echoes into the rooms

Very friendly and helpful staff, easy check in after hours, VERY clean room, we only stayed the one night but was so convenient to eat at the bar with the family and just stroll back to the room for bed!

Nothing really!

Hotel was very conveniently located. The staff were friendly, always waved good morning to us. The room was cleaned nearly everyday even without us needing to ask. Bed were comfy and the a/c kept the room nice and cool. The window above the shower provided endless entertainment for my little one, watching the geckos outside catching bugs.

Beds were comfortable. Bar and restaurant was really good.

Smaller than I thought. No toaster or bowls.

i left Bowen 16 months ago after living there for 20 years and the service was outstanding as you also accommodated my request for an early check in of 9.30 am. The young lady who checked me in was welcoming and very friendly. the service I got reminded me of how lovely Bowen is. thank you. this will be a fortnightly/monthly arrangement if I can get a room every time. thanks again.

Friendly Staff, Easy Check inn, Very Clean Facilities, Comfortable Bed, Great Food and Service, can not fault, would definitely stay here again..

Central location

Was disappointed in the hotel side of the business due to waiting 1.5hrs for a pizza but I assume they were having a bad night. It could have been communicated better by the staff
