Pros:

Beautiful and clean

Cons:

Be aware the harbour view rooms have a very interrupted view of the water. It is more of a car park view, not a water view.

Pricey but our Go To when in Townsville
Pros:

Great location and beautiful setting.
Has a lovely hotel ‘scent’ and generous bathroom and room size.
Hotel staff are brilliant.

Cons:

It is expensive and ocean views particularly so.
Would be great to have breakfast inclusions to balance this for a Townsville property- even with it in a magnificent setting.

Schönes Hotel mit Schwächen beim Personal

Infinity Pool

Cons:

Bedienung in Rooftopbar war uninteressiert an uns als Gästen. Angebotener Gepäcktransport hat zunächst das Zimmer nicht gefunden.
