Whilst travelling back home via the Newell we were looking for somewhere to rest overnight, and booked Comfort Inn Goondiwindi online.

We were pleasantly surprised with how lovely this standard motel was. Beautifully presented, very clean and tidy rooms, a very friendly check-in team, and none of that awful commercial cleaner smell when we opened the door!

The shower was nice and hot (warning - it may take a little while to heat up for the first shower), great foxtel channels on the tv (many more than usual), a very comfortable bed, and extremely quiet despite being on the main road (and we were in the 2nd closest room to the road).

The mini bar is comparable with prices in the supermarket, and room service from the local hotel (across the road) is available between 6pm and 7pm every day.

For a nice stay over whilst driving the length of the Newell Highway, we highly recommend The Comfort Inn Goondiwindi.

Approximate cost: $109/nt
