Friendly and helpful staff and great dining menu. ##### David Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Vladimir Mar 30, 2025 Liked: Staff & service Was reasonably close to the exit from Highway and in a quiet location near freshwater. I just wanted to get as far away from Brisbane as possible and closure of checking in at 10 pm suited me better. ##### Vladimir Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Michael Jan 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great country pub, in a beautiful country town. Only drawback was no air conditioning in the room we stayed in. ##### Michael Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marilyn Jan 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Maclean Hotel Room was generous in size.

Location was central to town and provided a good spot to meet locally with others. Would recommend to singles, couples and groups. ##### Morgan Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Carol Dec 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Peace and quite and cleanliness ##### Carol Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Alex Dec 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Thankyou for our beautiful stay at your hotel over the christmas period. The room was comfortable and lovely, and the freshly updated bathrooms and amenties were fantastic. The food looked amazing and well priced. My only regret we couldn't stay longer. Beautiful main street and river to explore. Not far to Yamba for a beach swim. ##### Alex Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer Nov 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Terrific ##### Jennifer Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joanne Jan 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff were lovely. Was all very clean ##### Joanne Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Liz Apr 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Without A/C the room was very breezy with the ceiling fan which was quiet. Common kitchen area & balconies were nice. A bit deceiving was the room ads-noticed it was a "shared bathroom" (which I would not have booked) then I saw a room that didn't have this description & I booked believing it has a bathroom. Please make every room clear. However, they were beautiful and clean (just redone). A lovely stay : ) ##### Liz Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Patrick Aug 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Simple lodgings but certainly up to par, the only issue I found was the hot water in the shared bathroom was very slow to heat and barely got more than luke warm but the location had incredible views of the river, fair rates, and a great menu at the attached restaurant. ##### Patrick Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Edward Feb 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities All Good ##### Edward Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Amit Jul 11, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Room was very small and bed was uncomfortable. Good we were only in for one night. ##### Amit Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Nishadi Dec 31, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We stayed one night at this place. The room was simple but worth the money spent, offering great value. The bar and food options were a nice touch, making everything easy and convenient. While the bathrooms are shared, they were clean and well-maintained, so it wasn’t an issue. The room we stayed in was next to the balcony, where some guests were gathered, so there was a bit of noise even after 10 PM. Additionally, the balcony lights shone directly into our room through the window, which could be improved for better comfort. Overall, a good place for a short stay—comfortable. ##### Nishadi Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Evan Oct 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Well maintained old pub but the refrigeration unit roared all night and the main road was noisy. Maybe they should have a quiet option! ##### Evan Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### drew Dec 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Didn’t realise it would have communal bathrooms. Should have thought about it as it is a 150 year old hotel. It was fine we adapted and thought it was an interesting little twist to make out road trip more memorable. ##### drew Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kasun Jan 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I only stayed one night, but it was a good experience. The rooms are in the pub and there are shared facilities. Everything was very clean and neat and felt quite safe. Check-in was pretty casual and smooth. It's an older building and the rooms are basic, with the usual mini bar etc., the single beds were neat and clean. No AC, but I found that the fan was enough. No complaints here. ##### Kasun Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Kai Jan 5, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Proximity to middle of town is excellent. Great pub below, not too noisy which was surprising. The mattresses were pretty awful though. Actually, I don't think I have been stabbed by as many springs ever before! In all seriousness, we thoroughly enjoyed the hotel except the mattresses. ##### Kai ### 6/10 Okay #### John Jan 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities No ac clean public bathroom facilities ##### John Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jun 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Quaint and friendly stopover off the highway. The Maclean Hotel is full of old world charm and was a great location to stay in the middle of town and on the river front. Our room, a Standard Queen was clean, comfortable and very affordable over a long weekend. The shared bathrooms are thoroughly modern and very clean. A guest laundry, kitchen with a fridge and a small dining/ lounge is provided on the accommodation level which is upstairs over the hotel below. (NB there is no lift - not a problem for me but could be an issue for others). We dined in the hotel and the meals were affordable and delicious. Staff were courteous and very helpful. I have only have 2 suggestions- a bedside lamp and the addition of drapes to the window to reduce the early morning sun. I would strongly recommend a visit to the Maclean Hotel. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024
