Relaxing Pool Experience

The indoor pool was a favorite for my kids! They loved relaxing after a long day exploring the Gold Coast. The spa amenities added that extra touch of relaxation we needed.

I had a somewhat mixed stay at this hotel. While the location is fantastic, right across from the beach, there were significant downsides, including the dated facilities and issues with the elevator and sauna. The apartment we stayed in was roomy and had beautiful views, but the interference from construction next door really affected the overall experience. Overall, it's convenient and comfortable, but not without its flaws.

Rooms

The apartment we occupied was spacious with renovated bathrooms and a kitchen, and the view from the 12th floor was stunning. However, some details in the room, like the shabby wardrobe interiors, showed the building's age.

Service

Service was quite good; maintenance responded quickly to fix a broken shower and replace a light bulb.

The hotel's location is absolutely prime, just across the Esplanade from the beautiful beach.

The facilities left much to be desired, as the pool area did not receive any sun due to the new building overshadowing it. Also, the sauna was frequently out of order.

I had a mixed experience during my stay. The location is fantastic, just a short walk to the beach and local shops, and the rooms offer beautiful views. While the apartment was generally clean and well-equipped, there were a few maintenance issues, and the service response left something to be desired. Overall, it's a great spot for a getaway, but improvements in service and maintenance could enhance the experience.

I had an amazing stay in a sub penthouse that was truly worth the extra cost. The view was breathtaking, and I loved the wider balcony compared to other places I've been to. The kitchen was stocked better than I've ever experienced, and the bed was really comfortable. However, I was also disappointed by some rooms that my friends stayed in – they were old, poorly maintained, and didn’t meet our expectations.

The sub penthouse was outstanding with an excellent view and ample kitchen supplies, although some other rooms were shabby and needed maintenance.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The view from our apartment was simply breathtaking—180-degree views of both the city and the beach. The location was perfect, with everything we needed just a short walk away. The only downside was that the indoor pool was closed for renovations and the air conditioning in the double bedroom could use an upgrade. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I can't wait to return!
