We recently stayed at the Bluegum Motel for two nights while driving from Brisbane to Sydney, and it served as the perfect stopover for our visit to the Dubbo Zoo. The facilities were very nice, clean, and modern, with comfortable beds that made for a restful night’s sleep. We loved the added touch of having room service available, along with a Nescafé coffee machine and milk frother with daily replenishment of coffee pods was a nice added touch. The lovely pool was a refreshing bonus, ideal for a quick dip after a long day of travel. The staff at reception were friendly and professional, making us feel welcome right from the start. Location-wise, Bluegum is excellent, being conveniently close to the zoo and within reach of Dubbo's town center where we found great shopping options and nice restaurants and cafe’s.

As for the downsides, there really was nothing to complain about. While the room was typical in size for a motel, it exceeded our expectations as a quick stopover.

The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and impeccably clean, with modern and stylish décor. Our room was well-equipped with all essentials, ensuring a convenient stay. The pool area was spotless and modern. The staff were exceptionally welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. Overall, the price was very reasonable for the excellent amenities and service provided. Also, it is very close to all amenities. The cake shop across the road from the accommodation had the best coffee, cakes, and sandwiches/rolls. Highly recommended the accommodation!!!

Nothing I could that I didnt like

We liked that the owners were so friendly, that the AC worked brilliantly in very hot weather, that the rooms were quite large and it was quiet. We also really liked that we could put our freezer packs into their freezer overnight so that they were properly frozen for each day.

Our preference is for a hard bed, and we found the bed a bit bouncy for us. But this doesn't mean it was bad, just that it wasn't our preference.

I liked how they sent you the links to everything plus the TV channels. And the electric blanket on the bed. Very satisfied with t he housekeeping that was done everyday we were there.

I'm not to find of topstair accommodation otherwise it was still very good and comfortable.

The property was almost new. Looks like it was recently rennovated, and the job was done nicely. The rooms are spacious, the small kitchenette was very hand, the location is just under 10 mins to everything in Dubbo. Overall, it was a very pleasant exp for us. Must recommended to stay here if you're visiting adubbo.

None

This was the second time staying at Bluegum, and the staff member at the front was lovely and very welcoming for the second time, he even moved my room upstairs. They provide milk for coffee and some of the rooms even have a coffee pod machine which is nice to have before leaving early in the morning. There’s also complimentary Netflix which is a big plus too. Everything was perfectly clean, and very comfortable. I’ll definitely be staying again.

Excellent value for money

Cancellation policy is factor that will have me reconsidering booking ahead or booking again - with so many choices in Dubbo charging full price of room for cancelling 24hrs beforehand seems counterproductive. Its prompted me to try other motels as a regular visitor

Location was very convenient Breakfast was nicely served and more than ample The owners were friendly and went out of their way to be helpful The accommodation was spotless and well maintained

I can’t think of anything that I would want changed or improved

Amazing facilities, very comfortable and clean; warm room. I loved the bed, the LED light around the mirror, electric blankets, TV area and the free bottles of water and slippers. The staff was really friendly and quick to support the check-in and check-out process.

Nothing comes to mind

The owner was super helpful, suggesting attractions and places for dinner. We chose the Pastoral Hotel, which was great as they had a complimentary bus with an energetic driver (Anthony) behind the wheel for pick up and drop off. The food there is amazing. The location is perfect, we visited the Old Dubbo Gaol and the Zoo while there. There is also a little bakery right across the street for coffee and breakfast.

We didn’t realise the pool wasn’t heated at all and was quite small.
