Hotels near Maryborough Airport - MBH, Maryborough

So much interesting history, the woman who wrote Mary Poppins was born in Maryborough. Such an interesting town, so much historical significance for Queensland a great place to visit and if my circumstances were different, I’d actually consider moving and living in Maryborough.

Even with the rain falling nearly the entire time we were in Maryborough, the town’s charm still shone through. From its beautifully preserved heritage buildings to the friendly locals and relaxed pace, there’s a quiet magic to the place that no amount of rain can wash away. The streets were peaceful, the cafes warm and welcoming, and there’s something oddly soothing about watching the historic town glisten in the rain. Fittingly, the skies cleared on the day we left, revealing just how stunningly beautiful Maryborough truly is. We’ll definitely be back—hopefully with a little more sunshine next time!

There is a lot to see in Maryborough. Be there for Thursday morning and go to the Market in Adelaide St. Good quality and well priced produce. Stock up on Honey. Many Heritage Buildings and Museums to visit.

So much history in Maryborough. The military museum is one of the best in Australia. The Gallipoli trail is a must. The river is lovely and the town is peaceful but has everything you want for a few days to see all the history.

Convenient location. Walking distance to to nearby shops and take away food outlets. Room was clean, tidy and well stocked. Motel staff every accomodating and attentive. Would recommend staying here.

We were visiting family so didn't do anything much touristy this time. We were there mid December for Christmas and found the weather hot, humid and almost unbearable without air con. (we used to live in Maryborough) There was a breeze some of the time but it's best to stay in the shade if you can. Lots of that in the parks. If you are into heritage stuff, then you could spend a week in Maryborough and not see it all. Museums are great as are the ghost walks and walking tours of the town. Beautiful parks and gardens with a water park (within Anzac Park on Alice St,) for your kids which is more than adequate for a days fun. Bike paths, skate park, feed the wildlife like ducks, geese, turtles, eels in the lagoon adjacent to the golf course which is part of the park. Lots of exercise equipment and climbing frames, swings, balance beams and a flying fox. Grades from toddlers to adults across several spaces. A Riverside walk and a steam train called the Mary Ann are at Queens Park as well as a band stand and tribute to the ANZACS. You could spend the day in this park too. Quiet spots to sit and admire the garden beds. Not a fan of takeaway food but most of the coffee shops have a good range of sandwiches and salads. The pubs offer the usual fare, none of which we eat but have been told is good.
