Cairns most unique motel accommodation

Your home away from home for work trips, road trips, and rebellious runaways!

At Motel Nomad we've reimagined the ’roadside motel’ by combining modern furnishings with minimalist design to create a stay that is friendly, casual, and above all, comfortable. Refurbished in 2018, our Queenslander-inspired, motel with 30-year-old bones is set in a relaxed palm-filled compound. The property features 54 suites, studios, and apartments. Chill out in the pool, or unwind in the spa.

Savor the flavors of Thailand at Thai Coins, a locally famous establishment just a short stroll away. Enjoy authentic, traditional Thai dishes for both lunch and dinner, crafted with care and passion. Their home-style cooking has garnered a loyal following, making every meal an unforgettable experience.

Our Function and Conference spaces offer unique options for corporate and non-traditional business events.

Easy to find and explore. We're positioned between the Direct Factory Outlet (DFO) Shopping Centre and Cazalys Social Club, just minutes from Cairns City. We are just minutes away from all popular destinations; Cairns Central Shopping Centre, Cairns Convention Centre - home of local NBL stars Cairns Taipans, Cairns Cruise Liner Terminal, Cairns Art Gallery, NorthSite Contemporary Arts (formerly KickArts), Rusty’s Markets, Cairns Esplanade and more. Check our blog for our tips on the nooks and crannies of Cairns they don’t tell you about (but we will) that are an absolute must!
