Classique B&B is the perfect demonstration that, in terms of hospitality, the experience of your hosts counts above everything. The place itself, an original queenslander, is worth the visit ; it is now unfortunately in an urban environment, which lets in a certain level of street and traffic noise that cannot be avoided by this type of historic timber construction....

Stayed here in November but only now have had time to enter our review. What a lovely warm welcome we received. Russell was on hand with a much needed cup of English tea. We couldn't decide where to eat and Russell, not only suggested the venue, but drove us into town as well. Room was lovely, clean and spacious and... More

Thank you Iva and Russell for such a wonderful stay at your beautiful B&B. The upgrade to the Gold Room was just lovely and the bed was so comfortable. We loved trying all the different tropical fruits at breakfast - so healthy and appropriate for the hot, humid Townsville summer weather. All the different wonderfully cooked, tender meats for the...

This is a wonderful place to stay in Townsville. Iva and Russell are the best hosts one can wish for. Due to traffic jams we arrived quite late at the B&B, but they were very hospitable, and were more than happy to prepare our dinner a bit later. The food was great, perfectly grilled meat and tasteful sidedishes. The room... More

We stayed only one night in Classique and wished we had stayed longer. Iva and Russell were friendly and had a quality of attention to our needs without being intrusive. The house, of which they were rightly proud, was spacious and beautifully maintained. We had a room at the back of the house, which had a generous sized bed, ensuite... More

We stayed two nights in Classique during our two month trip from Ireland touring around Australia. Russell and Iva were wonderful hosts. He was waiting for us on arrival off the Greyhound bus and dropped us back into town to a restaurant.The breakfast was memorable with an array of fresh juicy fruit .With just three accommodation rooms, we felt we...

Russell and Iva make wonderful hosts and run their B & B in the old style where guests are treated like part of a family. We were travelling from Brisbane to a family wedding with an aged relative with specific health needs so we felt a motel was not appropriate and we couldn't be happier with our choice to stay...

Classique is a beautiful old ‘Queenslander’, the sort of houses northerners lived in before the arrival of air conditioning; weatherboard with wide verandas, and raised off the ground to enable cool air to circulate. Eva and Russell – ironically both from cooler climes in the northern hemisphere – have kept this tradition alive by restoring and maintaining the house to... More
