Quality Inn Railway Motel

This is a typical Motel that is clean and very well maintained. Considering it has fly in fly out workers using it all the time we were surprised at how well maintained it was. But don’t expect it to be more than a Motel. Opposite the train station and maybe a 15 minute walk to the Main Street. Nothing in terms of cafes or supermarkets on the door step but everything needed is within walking distance.

Our room was clean, comfy bed, great access from station. Breakfast good, dinner quite expensive. NO cutlery, plates or bowls in the room. We bought microwaveable meals, had to share the 1 teaspoon to eat them. The biggest let down was the indifference/unfriendly attitude of the reception staff and the dining room staff. This is hospitality........be hospitable. NOT the hotels problem BUT while writing....Kalgoorlie is shut. NOTHING to do or see once main tour done. the hop on/hop off tour GREAT. The Goldfields museum GREAT. If the hotel or town offered some manner of entertainment- quiz night, music, games it would enhance visitors experience.

This is a good place to stay while in the Kalgoorlie boulder area spotless rooms quiet and very well equipped rooms freshly renovated restaurant excellent breakfast room service meals extremely enjoyable see photos Thai beef salad etc can't fault this hotel join there choice privileges club reconciliation for Qantas @virgin frequent flyers overall l would definitely stay here again the Chilean girl on reception the French girl at breakfast @ the fabulous Shi Lanka chef

My wife and I attended a 4 day Conference in Perth, Western Australia in May 2024. To maximise the airfare from Brisbane we extended our visit by adding a three night stay in Kalgoorlie - "the capital of the Goldfields", after the Conference concluded. To get to Kalgoorlie (650 kilometres east of Perth) we travelled on the Prospector Train. The journey took 7 hours and was quite a pleasant experience. We researched where we wanted to stay in Kalgoorlie on the Internet before leaving Brisbane and stumbled on the Quality Inn Railway Motel and this became our choice of accommodation for our three night stay. It’s a large complex with two distinct sections – a rendered cream concrete and brick corner block ( Forrest and Wilson Streets) housing the reception office as well as Carriages Restaurant and a second larger section mostly in red brick consisting of three buildings containing 102 units, set in a square horseshoe configuration around a large concrete car parking area. A partially covered driveway into the complex separates the two sections. The exterior of the complex provides an overall pleasing effect. Its number one selling point is LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION !!! It is located directly opposite the Railway Station and a leisurely 500 metre walk to the Town Hall in Hannan Street. A bonus being opposite from the Railway Station was that we did not have to carry our luggage too far to get to our accommodation – a “hop, skip and a jump”, no more than 100 metres, and we were there. The Quality Inn Railway is motel accommodation. It’s not luxury but it is clean and comfortable. We chose a deluxe unit with a Queen bed and a kitchenette. The cost per night was a little more expensive than we might have expected; however we appreciated we were paying for the supreme location. As well as the Queen bed, there were two basic lounge chairs with a small occasional table. The kitchenette had a microwave, a small bar fridge, a stainless steel kitchen sink and cupboards with a range of cutlery, crockery and glassware. We utilised the kitchenette for our morning breakfasts. For other meals we either ate out or brought takeaways back to the unit. This arrangement suited us fine. The unit does not cater for the traveller who wishes to cook full meals. There is no actual bathroom as such but a separate room with a door that houses the toilet and shower recess. The wash basin is actually outside this room opposite the kitchenette with the towel racks beside the kitchenette. It’s an unusual arrangement but it works nonetheless. There is a simple writing desk with a chair below the television and attached to the writing desk is a useful luggage rack. There is a swimming pool on site – however we chose not to partake because we were too busy touring. On site is the Carriages Restaurant where breakfast is served each morning if you don’t wish to eat in. It also offers dinner and on one of the nights of our stay we had a m

Very comfortable. Easy walking distance to the centre of town. Friendly staff.

Rooms don’t get cleaned regularly, service is below average. New customers are preferred over repeat by customer or visitors. Numerous occasions have had to cancel booking and go to different hotels due to getting put up in grotty smelly mould ridden rooms. Don’t expect after hours service
