Greater Melbourne residents will again be locked out of Queensland amid a cluster of COVID-19 cases linked to a quarantine hotel.

People coming from Greater Melbourne will not be able to cross the Queensland border for 14 days from 1am on Saturday.

The decision on Friday comes a day after Queensland Health reintroduced the border pass system for anyone coming from Victoria.

Thirteen cases are linked to the Holiday Inn at Melbourne Airport, which has sparked a five-day lockdown across Victoria.
