Where can I go for Dinner?
There is a great foodies scene in Bundaberg. You can get takeaway from most places, dine in or even have food delivered. Head to our Discover Bundy page to see our recommendations. There are also options in your guest compendium. Most are less than a 10-minute walk from the Matilda Motel.
Do you have off-street parking?
Absolutely. We offer guests a single carpark per room, with a mix of undercover and outdoor spaces available, free of charge. Our carparks are monitored 24/7 by CCTV to ensure that your vehicles are secure.
In periods of high occupancy we may not have enough parking spaces for everyone, however there are many on street parks in front of the motel. Parking is not designated and we are unable to reserve parking spaces.

Can I get late check-out?
Unfortunately we are unable to offer late check-outs. We are a small motel and do not have the same flexibility as larger properties. Check-out is strictly 10am as this helps us manage our small housekeeping team and ensure we have enough time to be ready for our incoming guests. If your particular circumstances require a late check out, you are very welcome to book an extra night.
