The front counter staff are absolutely lovely and so helpful. However, I paid for a deluxe ocean view room and it was terrible, I have previously paid for an ocean view room at the same hotel and had a much better apartment.

We booked for 6 nights but left after one night & found somewhere else. It was dirty, smelly, dusty. The TV, airconditioner, didn’t work. No batteries! We bought some & they still didn’t work.Was told we would have to wait till they got the maintainable worker to check it out….. The hot water in the shower was minimal. The lobby on level 12 stunk like 40 years of never being cleaned. Wouldn’t walk in bare feet anywhere. The bed was small & old. Scary all round. Veranda had black dust on it. Windows didn’t fit properly anymore so old. So loud. Looks like they are running it into the ground before they knock it down. I’d expect more from Accor. It’s not exactly cheap. We were offered another room we went to see it. It was just as bad. No thanks! I couldn’t wait to get out of there & have a shower somewhere clean. I didn’t go anywhere near the kitchen to scared. Little roaches running around…vomit! And we had the refurbished room! If you value cleanliness I wouldn’t stay here. Just so disappointing we had to go find another place & waste our time doing that. They still charged us for one night. But the only good thing is we did eventually get a refund for the 5 nights. Never again!

location good

The location of the hotel is very good, but because the hotel rooms are old, the smell of old carpets and old furniture will become very unpleasant, and the room cleaning is not very clean. When I checked in, I found black spots on the pillowcases.

The photos you see online to book look good but the actual apartments were very old, mould in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen had a bad smell and there was dirt in the corners and the kitchen cupboards were filthy. When it rained, the water came inside from the balcony door. The only good and very clean thing was the ocean view from the apartment and the pool toilets that were very clean.

Room was not ready by 2pm as per the check in time. Furniture especially the lounge was very very old. Old kitchen with original stove etc and old appliances. Wall paint was terrible and needs repainting. Beds were average. Views of the beach were fantastic. Great indoor pool and spa. Limited visitor parking.

The location is excellent. Short walk to everything. Patrolled, beautiful beach straight across the road. The view was stunning from the 14th floor. Unfortunately my room was very tired and worn and well overdue for a renovation. Compared to my other family members who were in beautifully renovated rooms, I paid the same price as them which is a bit disappointing. The carpet is almost threadbare and very stained. The kitchen was fantastic and a laundry in the room was great. No air conditioning to the bedrooms was a major disappointment. The undercover swimming pool was great for the children. Overall it was a terrific stay and would definitely stay again in another room. The 180 degree views of Surfers Paradise truly made up for the tired old room.

Disliked: Room comfort

Great position but lacking in comfort

The wide ocean view from the lounge room was great but having only one air conditioner for a 2 bedroom apartment where one of the bedrooms didn’t even have a window that opened was well below expectations. The lounge looked 20 years old and needed replacing several years ago. Only one TV with no subscription channels was also disappointing. Overall, if you want no frills with great views and a position close to Surfers Paradise then it will suit but i recommend going in the cooler months due to the lack of effective A/C.

Family holiday

What a great location. We actually saw whales and dolphins from our balcony. The down side was the lift problems. The lift actually opened on a wrong level one day and our kids got out accidentally and we lost them for a while. As there was only one that worked most of the time we were there, wait times were terrible. It was also disappointing to hear of renovations taking place only a couple of days before arrival and it made it impossible for us to change to another Property due to cost at that time! This could have been communicated earlier but obviously that was the plan. The last we encountered most of the time at the front desk was really friendly and helpful! Sorry didn’t catch her name. Overall we had a great stay but these few issues mentioned above were not great at all!

Property was under construction. Tennis court was not usable. A fire drill without warning. We got locked in the stair way, walked down 19 flights of stairs to get out. The property was dirty & old. The photos online do not show the real state of this room. Enough is enough with false advertising. I saved a year for this short stay & it was dreadful.
