The motel is nestled in, cosy with excellent amenities and friendly, accomodating staff. there are walks and rivers and excellent cafes nearby. The motel units are gorgeous and with a 70s motel vibe - in a (really) good way. Firepit with wood provided.

Warburton hotel
We love the personal touch that Richard and Simone provide. This was our second stay and most likely, not our last. It is a clean well appointed hotel with a mini bar stocked with items that help one relax :) Because we stay there visiting family, we haven’t used the rental bikes etc which ate a plus for using the Lilydale-Warburton trail.

New carpets, new paint, new beds, new cutlery and crockery, new flat screen TVs, new linen, new towels, new decor, new throw rugs but it “badly needs refurbishment” This is a unique situation we find ourselves in with reviews… older folks who grew up with this decor expect it to be modernised BUT we have worked our butts off to preserve the 1966 original character but AlL refurbished. Lost on you clearly but that’s ok. We can’t please everybody. Glad we could get extra staff on to facilitate your (and others) early check in though to ensure you got to your event on time.

The motel is an OK place to stay, but simply overpriced / poor value for the money. Yes, I understand we have inflation, but... ..

Response from Richard on Jan 28, 2023
Hi Tom, you paid 298 for TWO nights in the summer peak / school holidays in a tourist town. I think if you want better value than that you just need to go a LOT further from the city, or a non tourist town, or maybe take advantage of the non-peak periods.

Amazing stay at Warburton Motel
We went to Mt Donna Buang for our snow trip and the Redwood Forest and the river trail. It was an amazing experience to be in that country side. Highly recommend a short stay at Warburton Motel for a good night sleep. SInce its winter I was dead tired and slept from 7.30 pm to 7.30 am and off to work in Melb. Left my laptop lol and Richard texted me that Ive left my laptop and Ive to make a uturn to get it. Thanks once again Richard and Simone :) Will definately come back. O i love the bathroom organic handwashing liquid smelt so nice.

Just love the Warburton motel. It is great and so comfortable. It is a easy walk into town and so clean. We also have done the Aqueduct and Redwood Forest walking tours run by the motel. It is such a wonderful way to see the some incredible nature of Warburton. Thanks so much for a great stay.

We absolutely loved our overnight stay at the Warburton Motel and our expectations were well exceeded! Our room was lovely and clean and every effort of the hosts was made to ensure our stay was a great one. We felt the motel gave our family the fun and adventure of camping, but with all the luxuries of a nice room (super comfy mattress too!) as opposed to roughing it in a tent. The kids enjoyed making huts out of sticks in the garden whilst we drank wine by the campfire. We can't wait to return!

Exceeded Expectations!
Loved the Motel and hope to come back next year to stay longer. The Motel is immaculate and very comfy, our Host was extremely professional, easy self check in, all amenities we needed were there. There are many outdoor activities, such as the Rainforest Gallery, Redwood Trees, River Walk, etc and Warburton village is very bohemian and unique to explore. Easy walk from the Motel. A welcome respite from home on the Gold Coast! Thank you!
