Anchor Motel Noosa

Large spotlessly clean room, on main road but no traffic noise. Room and entire property well maintained. Kara on front desk kindly let us into room at midday and personally inspected the room herself which had just been prepared. Best room we have had since leaving Brisbane 5 days ago. Easily worth the $180 we paid. Single bed in room also. Would definitely stay again.

We loved it here. Ended up staying an extra night. Pool was lovely. Room was comfortable and clean. Staff where really nice and helpful. Good parking. Lovely private balcony space. Would recommend

Great little motel, the staff were incredibly helpful and assisted with alternative checking times to accommodate an unwell relative. Highly recommended Very neat and tidy

The front desk staff is super friendly. The room is spacious and very clean. The bed is comfortable.

Great peaceful place to stay! Food joints nearby, McDs as well! Aldi is just 2 mins away! Great place if you're looking for something quiet and relaxing! Very clean and comfortable!

Just another motel, but our ground floor room was spacious & clean with comfy beds. Access to garden & pool was easy. No cooking allowed but it's just a 15 minute walk down to Gympie Terrace on the Noosa riverfront where the best cafe/restaurant action happens. $170/night.

Great room stayed 2 nights clean comftable owners helpfully price right Pool good say no more

A convenient and comfortable motel with convenient parking and a pool for guest use. Furnishings, layout and colour scheme in the rooms are nice, and the bathrooms are quite spacious. Lock box room key collection available for late arrivals. Although the room and bathroom was adequately cleaned, some attention is required to do a semi-regular ‘deep clean’ to ensure layers of dust and dead insects in some places are addressed. Some examples: the insect screen in the bathroom had a thick layer of dust, the wall extraction fan unit in the bathroom had a thick layer of dust, and there were dead insects on the top face of the wall-mounted bedside lamps. There was a bit of a pong coming from the floor grate in the shower booth, but that may be unavoidable and due to the layout and age of the pipes. Also, the plastic drain grate cover on the bathroom floor near the shower was a bit cracked and aged, and is due for replacement. Tip for first-timers who prefer quiet: ask if it’s possible to get a room a little further away from the pool and road.

We stayed in a deluxe room this past weekend. The room was very clean and comfortable. I was impressed to find a microwave, toaster and crockery/cutlery, in addition to the standard bar fridge and tea/coffee facilities. For 4-star accommodation I expected nicer linen; the towels were of average quality and rough and the sheets were in good condition but thin. I liked the mounted squeeze bottles of shampoo and body wash, and hand wash in the bathroom. The water pressure - particularly coming from Brisbane - was divine! The property has a pool and spa, which we unfortunately didn't have time to try. It is situated at the front of the property and while nicely maintained, there is no shade or privacy, which detracts from the appeal. Overall I was happy with our stay, but the overall ambiance of the place could do with some work. I would probably consider this place again for a short-stay, but if I were taking a longer holiday I would want to stay somewhere a bit more lush.

Most of the reviews I read on another site were positive (as is Lonely Planet's) but there were a handful admonishing bad hosting. The accommodation is more like a hotel than a motel - new furniture, furnishings and finishes - with the added bonus of crockery & cutlery. The room is spacious, modern, immaculately clean. The bed is comfortable and firm and the hosts are lovely. Across the road from Lake Weyba, the Anchor Motel makes for very affordable and comfortable Noosa accommodation.
