"clean room, helpful staff, air con/heating. Fantastic views, decent parking. Away from the centre of town - a few minutes' drive away, loved the peace and quiet even when there were functions on, it didn't distract."

Maleny Hotel

8/10 Good
"Overall, I had a good stay. The environment was nice, and the room was comfortable and clean. The only downside was the limited table space, as there was only a small round table and a bedside table, so I had to put some of my belongings on the floor. That said, it’s understandable given that the room wasn’t very spacious. The bathroom tap was also a little difficult to use, and the tap in the room made a loud noise when the hot water was turned on. I could also hear the water running whenever the neighbouring room used their tap."
