Lovely quiet place to stay with friendly staff. We stayed in the renovated Deluxe Family Room and it was comfortable. The only facilities it has is a guest laundry and outside pool. It is a 30-40 minute drive from major towns like Atherton & Mareeba. Would stay here again.

Unfortunately due to it being Easter weekend we weren't able to experience the full menu at the restaurant on site, Pickle & Smoke. There was only a limited menu for the whole weekend so we only had dinner there one night. We also only got fresh towels once which was a bit disappointing considering we stayed for 3 nights and it was raining the whole time so the towels weren't drying. I can understand the staffing issues with it being a long weekend and not wanting to pay the staff but I always expect fresh towels each day no matter what.

Staff ,cleaners location very friendly

This was huge we didn't take much food due to there no kitchen on a microwave we where going to uses the motel restaurants but it was booked out the first with a smorgasbord time meal the secon night it was a privet function so for two nigth no availability with 3 children under 5 and a ganny and poppy weekend away with the grand children it was very disappointing, evey think was great apart from that the not being able to uses the restaurant 😉

A Serene Escape in Nature Our stay at this hotel was delightful! The forest-themed rooms, with warm green and brown tones, created a peaceful atmosphere. The huge manicured gardens added to the tranquility, offering a lush, serene environment.Everything was perfect. The dining area opposite the pool was perfect , with a beautiful waterfall feature that made every meal memorable. The rooms were clean, beds comfortable, and the staff friendly and attentive. Malanda rainforest walks and waterfall are only a few minutes away by car.

Nothing

It was a very nice and clean room. The staff was very kind and helpful. They made up the room really neat for pur arrival with some wine glasses and a bottle of wine. The breakfast also was sufficient. The main building is also quite cosy and there were loads of beautiful birds.

There was a road close to the lodge with lots of trucks at night. Ofcourse the lodge can't help that but my advice to light sleepers would be to bring some ear plugs.

Very tastefully appointed room with a beautiful view of the green park like property - with outdoor chairs and table on the terrace. Thoughtful little details e.g. a discreet night light in the bathroom. Lots of power outlets and good lighting with individual bedside reading lamps. Very generous and good quality toiletries. Restaurant was good - had a nice dinner and complementary continental breakfast. Enjoyed the stay despite bad weather.

The exhaust fan in the bathroom was extremely noisy perhaps it could improve with a servicing. The bed wasn’t very comfortable - pokey springs.

Very comfortable room, nice beds, parking space right in front of the accommodation and a view into nature. Bathroom was large and comfortable as well. Located right along the main road.

Breakfast only starts at 8:30, which is really late if you have a long trip or activities planned for the day. No cell-phone reception (at least on our SIM-card/phone provider). Luckily an employee(?) appeared to help us check in, otherwise we'd have struggled.

How the restaurant went out of their way to cook a vegetarian meal for us, as we could not eat any of the main dishes at the Friday night smorgasbord. Thank you staff and chef. Much appreciated. I also like the continental breakfast put on by the friendly staff. The lodge is a great place for a relaxing overnight or weekend stay, for exploring the Atherton Tablelands.

We've stayed at Malanda Lodge a couple of times and always enjoyed being surrounded by nature and a relaxing environment.

Lovely location within parkland. Spacious, comfortable room, good towels, microwave and toaster. Parking outside room. Terrace with table and chairs overlooking gardens. Decent complementary breakfast with gf cornflakes and good gf bread. Bread kept in kitchen away from the buffet and separate toaster. Lovely server at breakfast.

Nothing. Malanda is a quiet town, few eating options but a good base.

Great customer service. Beautifully styled rooms, and a lovely garden.

I didn't like that there were enough rooms available to spread the guests out. Although, we were still placed next to other people with an adjoining door between the two rooms. Unfortunately, this allowed noise to travel between both rooms and this created a disturbance with late night chitter chatter, and early morning TV.

Lovely motel in the middle of the Atherton Tablelands. Room was large and comfortable, kitchen well equipped with a microwave, toaster and kettle. There was a nice outdoor veranda with seating and large grounds to walk around (unfortunately it was raining). This place far exceeded our expectations and we wished we had stayed longer.

Nothing, everything was excellent!
