The room was fine. I don't know how long it has been since someone else was in there, it was a bit dusty and moldy in the shower, but it was fine. one of the beds was really quite soft but supportive and delivered an incredible sleep. Front desk staff were friendly and welcoming. The room service was excellent.

Great stay

It was a great place to stay. I received a msg to let me know that they would be closing at 4pm, and what time i would be arriving? I told them at around 5, so they stayed open until we arrived to make it easier for checkin. That was nice of them.

Good location, on-site eateries & friendly staff

Friendly and welcoming staff at the front desk who gave us an unexpected upgrade (which was truly appreciated after 4 very long days on the road). There’s a restaurant and a tavern on-site, which again made our overnight stay relaxing. We opted for the tavern and the food arrived quickly, was reasonably priced and tasted great.

Overnight stop on our way to North Queensland. Friendly welcome and the suite was very comfortable and spacious. Very Covid safe. Great location with a tavern one side and an excellent restaurant on the other side. Very quiet location and we’d certainly stay there next time we are in Emerald.

Super clean, super comfortable.

Place was super clean. Beds amazingly comfortable to the point we all struggled to get out of them for our 3am departure. Man at reception was very friendly. Honestly no complaints, just one criticism which is the bathroom light is so dim and definitely needs updating.

If you pay $150 a night for accommodation in a country town you expect everything to be good, i know its a covid reaction but you cant tell me the room cant have steel cutlery and glassware, pretty poor eating with wooden cutlery and drinking champagne out of cardboard cups, not on

The Maraboon is a comfortable, clean, convenient motel close to the centre of Emerald offering good value.

The staff are very friendly and helpful.

On-site is a good restaurant and a sports bar.

nice place to stop

We only stayed here one night. Our room very a decent size, which backed onto a residential area, so very peaceful. A nicely presented room, good bathroom and comfy bed. The motel has a restaurant which was serving to the room due to COVID restrictions, but we did not try their food, opting for the pub next door instead, which was very good.

overnight stay

We had a suite, which was spacious and had a very comfortable bed in a separate bedroom. We had two minor issues. The floor of the shower didn’t drain properly and the padding on the two lounge chairs was thin and meant the frame was uncomfortable to sit on. Otherwise, we were pleased with the room and will be staying there again. Also, couldn’t get Wifi to work.

Best place to stay in Emerald.

Always stay here on our way through from north to south & vice versa. Dennis is always welcoming, friendly, and helpful. If you need advice about travel routes, where to stay, what to see, he is a world of knowledge. The Capricornia restaurant next door is fabulous - eat there or order in. Rooms are large and comfortable.

Quiet, clean and adequate.

The motel room was well equipped , quiet and spacious.
The \"free\" Wi-Fi was very patchy and was put down to a missing Arial. The staff didn't seem to care.
We had breakfast in the Capricorn restraunt which was well presented with a good range.
The Maraboon Tavern adjoining the motel is an advantage.
This motel is quite expensive by local standards and I found the extra cost hard to justify.
