This hotel is right of Surfer's paradise. We had had a deluxe room wrh ocean view and was in good clean refreshed order. Buffet breakfast is definitely worth booking, lots to choose from. Easy transport tram, train etc to almost anywhere on gold coast. . BUT, we were on on 27th floor and the street noise at the weekend was insane!. Earplugs soon cut it out the next night!. We willvisit again, good value, great stay all roundinthe heart

Terrible rude staff at the time of check in. No customer service and no understanding. Great location but if stops there. The room we initially got was outdated and smelt bad like old damn carpet and bathroom was dirty with moulds. You can smell the cleaning chemicals being used in there. Was told we had to pay if we want to change room! Not like other hotels we’ve stayed where complimentary upgrade was offered. The bed and pillows weren’t Constance. Aircond felt some what damp and didn’t cool the room despite being on the coolest setting! Pool water looked murky. The spa was cold and the jet wasn’t working (apparently been under maintenance for quite some time now). Breakfast was below average and repetitive. Unfortunately the whole experience with this hotel was underwhelming and we will not be returning back to this hotel and would not recommend this to anyone.
