Lovely little well priced hotel. Bathroom could use a deep clean and a handle on door for the outside of the balcony would be a huge improvement but overall really enjoyable stay.

Cracking place to stay and eat! V
Checked in here for 1 night and liked it so much, we booked for a 2nd night!
Really fantastic hotel - decor in reception area lovely and bar and restaurant superb - especially roof top area! Great vibes.
Food was awesome - we ate at their restaurant (Goldies) for both evenings! Can really recommend the steak but to be honest, everything that came out looked and smelt amazing!
Staff went out of there way to chat to us and give us recommends on what to do / where to see etc. Location is ideal - one block back from the sea/beach but very central to everything and walkable to everywhere!
Would highly recommend this hotel and we would definitely stay here again if we returned!

Loved the facilities. Restaurants and bars inside the hotel then you're a 2 minute walk to the beach and shopping.
By far one of my most fav stays I've had on the Gold coast. The new Reno is amazing

Perfect location. A stone throw away from Surfer’s paradise (mall and beach). The restaurant on the ground floor served very delicious food.
