After reading the reviews it was with some trepidation that we arrived at this hotel, how wrong some of these comments are!! We were warmly welcomed by the receptionist and found even though we were an hour and a half early our room was ready for us. We found our "budget" room booked on wotif was on the 15th floor... More

After previous reviews we were confused about what to expect and were really pleasantly surprised. We were located on the 34th floor and despite other reviewers having issues, we were not disturbed by any street noise, there were no lift issues and the staff were nothing but helpful - special mention goes out to concierge. Our room was very clean,... More

Big pompous name for an ageing property. Pay for internet service - some rooms have it, some don't. They'll put you in a room that's supposed to have it, but doesn't. Location is quite all right, but front desk not particularly helpful, rooms are only okay. Some have two doors to get through because they're separate yet conjoined rooms. What... More

We checked in and were told the pool was shut for renovations and we could swim across the road in the Islander hotel pool. It would have been nice to know this when i booked. The... More

A group of 4 of us recently stayed at this hotel this late January 2012 and we were really not that impressed. Fair enough the location is pretty handy and central in surfers paradise, but a lot more could have been done about the cleanliness of the rooms and front desk service. we stayed just one night before moving to...

Elevator very fast to get to 30th floor! Stayed in a spa room. Recently renovated and very clean. Spectacular views! Only problems we had was aircon felt as if it... More
