The Shamrock is perfect for our needs to avoid needing to hire a car, the bistro next door has awesome food and the pool is great, and IGA/Coles not far to walk. Very clean, surprisingly quiet from traffic noise. The staff are all excellent, both in the hotel and in the bistro. Do keep your bistro receipt as they are incredibly popular and occasionally make a mistake (which is human, and the receipt helps sort things out super quick). I love staying here and will book again as I'm back in a few weeks.

The guest wifi constantly dropping out, verified by using an SSID signal strength measuring tool which shows they have quite a few wifi access points but when using laptop at the room's bench+chair the wifi was -88db or worse. Shamrock might consider doing an SSID site survey ensuring that the test location within the room is not outside on the balcony but inside at the provided bench.

Staff were friendly and efficient. Check in and check out was easy. Housekeeping were very friendly and accommodating. The room was large, well maintained and clean. A continental breakfast was supplied each morning (free). Free parking undercover. Pool area was lovely. For those who are inclined, there is a restaurant/hotel adjacent to the motel.

Although it was too hot to have the patio door open, it would have been good to have a screen for this so that you could open it when it cooled down.

We stayed at the Shamrock Gardens Motel for 4 nights. Excellent rooms, very spacious. Lovely kitchenette and surprise surprise a washing machine . WHAT A BONUS. Rooms are serviced everyday if this is what you want. Continental Breakfast included in our price. We attended a wedding at the location and this went so well .Staff at the motel and hotel went out of their way to make our stay pleasant Very quiet. Thank you. I certainly will be telling anybody travelling to or through Mackay that it is the best place to stay. Great meals in the restaurant.

Absolutely nothing that we didn't like👍 GREAT STAY

Breakfast included cereals, lovely juices, yogurt and bread to toast in room. We had to be out early each day and this was so convenient and enjoyable. Room was large and comfortable with fridge and small dining setting. Beds were very comfortable and servicing of rooms each day was excellent . Only shampoo and soaps supplied but I always bring my own travel size shampoo, conditioner and shower gel. Restaurant is at front of accomodation and meals were always good. A little on the pricy side but worth it. Staff there were friendly and helpful especially when they were booked out and we hadn't booked and they managed to fit us in somehow. There is a bus stop outside but you will need cash. The accomodation cost was very reasonable and the Shamrock will not disappoint.

We couldn't use balcony as smoking is still allowed on balconies and the people in next door room chain-smoked. Just bad luck for us I suppose but we were out and about most of the time. There was a problem trying to find a taxi or uber most of our stay. Waited for an hour for taxi at airport and waits for Ubers were 20 mins or more. Not sure if this is always like this but will book a car rental next time.

Having a washer and dryer was very welcome. The small courtyard area was pleasant and inviting enough to lure us outside for refreshments. The kitchen was very well appointed and the continental breakfast included was plenty to get us on the road again.

I had requested a ground floor room at least five weeks in advance but on arrival had been given a handicapped bathroom. I don’t like them as we neither need it nor do I appreciate the wet floor and shower curtain hugging my legs. The Motel was fully booked and unable to change rooms.

The shamrock was fantastic. Great Value for money, the continental Breakfast each morning was so handy and the location was fantastic. It was super close to all the main areas of Mackay. All in all I would definitely stay here again.

It was a little bit noisy at times, the walls weren't super sound proof so we could here our neighbours. It didn't bother us much though

Continental breakfast available in room was good (toast + spreads, cereal, juice, yoghurt). Kitchenette was excellent with sink, fridge, microwave, toaster, jug, all plates etc. Cleaner did a great job every time. Aircon faultless.

Balcony was nice to have but got afternoon sun. May have been ok normally but not so much in a heatwave as it was.

We only stay at the Shamrock when we go north because its great value for money. The rooms are very clean, tidy, the breakfast in room we don't use but its nice that its there for people that do.

There is nothing that we don't like about the Shamrock. The staff are great and the facility has everything that we need. So when we stay there after a long drive we know that we don't have to go anywhere else because the Shamrock has it all.

Breakfast consisted of bread, butter, a variety of condiments, cereal, milk, yoghurt and juice. It was very nice Location was very central to pick up some groceries for dinner. Cooking facilities were extremely basic with a small pot, small electric fry pan and a couple of mixing bowls. Housekeeping were fantastic and kept us well stocked for brekkie and the rooms were nice and clean. Reception was great in assisting us with all booking enquires and the room was very reasonably priced. Restaurant was wonderful to book us a table even though they were very busy but the meals were average. Would definitely stay again.

Microwave in one room didn’t work. Shower pressure was great for cold but not so great for warmer showers.

What a great place to stay. The lady at the front desk was lovely. I loved every little detail, down to tea towel presentation. Breakfast was ample, beds were the most comfortable Ive slept on this year, the mini-bar was very reasonably priced. Everything was clean, even the cutlery & crockery (a rarity in my experience). Our meals were great & served to us quickly. Well done to the entire team.

Nothing.
