If your looking for a quiet stay in Townsville, this isn't the place for you. Rooms right beside a bar that doesn't close till 10pm, then when that stops you have the night clubs next door that go till the early hours of the morning. Had to ask staff to get room amenities like tea, milk etc re-stocked

I am rating this hotel terrible as we didn’t get to stay there due to Cycline Koji as we were stuck in Rockhampton due to Bruce Highway closed. We phoned to let them know 1st thing in the morning as soon as we knew the roads were closed due to the Cyclone but they would not refund our accommodation which I thought was extremely disappointing that they had no lack of empathy that we could not physically get to the hotel being 8 hrs drive away in a cyclone. Such a bad and uncaring attitude for a hotel in such extreme circumstances.

Stay was good for the purpose; location is great and the overall setup offers a lot, especially the bar and restaurant next to the pool are fantastic. Room was ok, nothing special, but unfortunately, the floor was not very clean and during the night it was quite loud, especially as there is a large fan on the roof that makes quite some noise. Staff is very friendly. Parking works quite well (there is even an undercover parking area right underneath the pool level; entrance at the back of the block).

Very noisy. The rooms are directly outside the pool / bar area and music can be heard from the rooms. Despite the bar bar and restaurant closing at 10pm people still sit in the pool area and drink. If you are after a quiet night this isn’t the place for you. The staff are nice and the location is central but it is very noisy.
