Convenient location for a one night stay on our way home from Queensland. Easy to check in, clean and neat. Plenty of parking, nice pool and bbq area, although we didn’t use either. Bowling club next door suited us fine…

Clean, comfortable and good location for a short stop over.
Top sheets were a bit thin and old fashioned.

Questions about Forster Palms Motel
What time is check-in and check-out at Forster Palms Motel?
Check-in is from 1:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Forster Palms Motel allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Forster Palms Motel?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Does Forster Palms Motel have a pool?
Yes — a pool is listed among the property's facilities. Seasonal closures are common, so we'll confirm it's open for your dates.
Does Forster Palms Motel have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Forster Palms Motel have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book Forster Palms Motel?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
