Hotel overview
Situated on a busy road in Bourke, this no-frills motel offers basic accommodation with practical amenities suited for short stays or road travelers passing through. Rooms include air conditioning to keep cool during warmer months and some units provide kitchen facilities for added convenience. The outdoor area features BBQ grills ideal for casual meals, while free on-site parking makes it easy for guests with vehicles.
Though modest in style, the motel serves as a functional base just a few kilometers from key local sights like the North Bourke Bridge and the PV Jandra monument. Bourke Airport lies within easy reach of the property, providing added accessibility for visiting travelers. While there is no pool or airport shuttle now, guests appreciate the straightforward comfort and affordability of the rooms.

Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“We stayed in the 4 bedroom house, beds were good and the air conditioners were great. Only one down side was there is no pool anymore.”
“Room had good air conditioning ideal for summer in Bourke - room was clean enough, with ensuite, fridge, microwave, toaster and kettle so everything you need to make your own meals. Stayed in a budget room with a single bed but the bed was comfortable and although it was a small space it was perfectly fine for one person. Overall good experience - would recommend.”
