Isa Hotel

Red Earth Boutique Hotel. We booked an Executive Room. We got a run down room with closet doors that didn’t open or close, drawers missing, old pilled pillows and sheets, an uncomfortable bed an air Conditioner that clicked loudly all night and a Guest balcony next to our room. At midnight my wife was bitten twice by a bug in the bed (not a mosquito) that was very painful, her face and chin became swollen for three days and had small bite marks. At 1 am we packed up and left to drive on to Darwin and cancelled our booking for the return trip. No refund was offered.

Room above the bar is a dance floor and you cannot sleep

Need a renovation

Kettle requires replacing. Carpet requires cleaning or replacing. Otherwise comfortable.

Asked to moved room as I was over the cooling system for the kitchen that also included barbed wire surround.. Room also has huge paint feeling off ceiling.. The alternate room had literally a 1/4 window and was also 1/2 the size of the current room and closest to the noisest section of property. Went to Rodeo Grill for dinner... no service, had to ask how to order food, drinks, etc.. Food was horrendous. I paid a fortune for buffalo wings, salt and pepper squid and the driest coleslaw that ever existed at a cost of $6.for the bowl.. packaged it up myself (on principal, as I paid for it) and walked across the street and ordered dominos.... So I right this sitting on my bed above the peeling paint {Picture attached}, eating Hawaiian pizza. I am a chef so I understand food service. The was disgraceful. Unfortunately, I am here another night.. Will be eating out and spending as little time in the room as possible. Definitely would NOT recommend to anyone. Will be speaking to management tomorrow will probably leave a day early.. not worth staying.

A little tired but clean. Avoid rooms over the beer garden. Not a chance of sleeping with the music. Rodeo bistro not the cheapest meal in town by far. But it works. Remember, this the Isa, so no 5 star should be expected. And do steak. Great steak. You are not near the ocean so oysters don’t quite make it in good condition.

Booked Red Earth, but got given a room at the Isa Hotel instead. I've stayed in some average accommodation across rural Queensland, but this was the worst on that list. There was a large patch of ceiling paint peeling off, the carpets are visibly dirty, the window was covered in grime and ... there were bed bugs.
