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.
Johannah “Really nice, simple but super clean accommodation. Would stay here again!”

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!
Anita Ludwigsen “Comfortable, Affordable Hotel”
12 Jan 2025
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.

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.
