Hotels With Breakfast in Queensland, Australia

The hotel room was clean, spacious, and clearly recently renovated. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We were able to store our luggage safely in a locked baggage room. The hotel grounds are beautiful, with clean and very attractive pool areas surrounded by lush plants. In the early evening, you can even see fruit bats flying over the property, which adds a special touch to the atmosphere. The hotel is a bit further away from the city centre, but only 15min from the airport.

This hostel offers standard facilities, including a large kitchen. The rooms are small with basic amenities and air conditioning. The kitchen and bathrooms could be cleaner. The courtyard has a small pool and plenty of tables and chairs, making it a great spot for young people to socialize. My room's door lock was faulty and couldn't be fixed even after half a day, so I was moved to a different room on the second day. There was a mix-up because the power outlets were in different locations in the two rooms, and I couldn't find them at first. The staff and supervisor on the check-in day were very helpful. However, the staff member who handled my room change was quite slow and unhelpful. I had to pack all my belongings and carry all my bags to the office to complete the room change. I stood there with heavy bags while she slowly processed everything on the computer for over ten minutes. Just as I turned around to find a place to put my luggage, she said it was done. Then, once I was in the new room, I couldn't find the power outlets, which really put me in a bad mood.

Hotel is next to star casino and walking distance to board beach. Hotel is looking pretty new and in fact, has been opened for few years. The only down side was the house keeping on one of the night. We booked for 3 rooms for 3 nights, on the first day, the house keeping was completely messed up. 3x Rooms did make up (partly) with soil towels (one of the room only has bed tidy up, nothing else) and etc were collected, however, no cleaned towels replaced, bin still full. Without this drama, this hotel is good.

1. **Prime Location:** Situated right on the Cairns Esplanade, it's a mere 2-minute walk to the Reef Fleet Terminal (the departure point for Great Barrier Reef tours) and 3 minutes to the Esplanade Lagoon. Restaurants and night markets are plentiful nearby, and a taxi ride to the airport takes about 13 minutes. 2. **Amenities & Experience:** Most modern rooms feature private balconies with city or harbor views. The free Wi-Fi is stable, and the outdoor pool is comfortable. The Bushfire Flame Grill Brazilian BBQ has a great reputation (breakfast/dinner are extra). Paid parking is limited, and street-facing rooms occasionally experience noise. 3. **Service:** There's a 24-hour front desk with multi-lingual staff who can assist with booking Great Barrier Reef/rainforest excursions. Luggage storage is seamless. 4. **Drawbacks:** Parking can be tight during peak season, some bathrooms are a bit dated, and breakfast isn't particularly cheap.

We stayed here for 3 nights. The room was ok but during our stay, no one came and clean up and we asked to change the towels only and the housekeeper seemed like she wasn't happy. When we checked in, the staff at the reception didn't give us any information on when to check out or information about the hostel because my application showed that I could check out until 5 pm, luckily I was asking. We don't ask for any special treatment but just the basic thing that we should've known. We've stayed at YHA Sydney Harbour and the staff were friendlier. Not that bad but not that good though.

The hotel's location is fantastic; you just walk downstairs and cross the road to the beach. The hygiene is decent, and the bedding is clean. The building facilities are a bit old, but getting a sea-view room at this price point is a great deal.

I’d give a solid 9.5/10 to this hostel. Everything is great, staff is amazing - very friendly and welcoming, everyday there is an event and they are always nice, location is perfect - walking distance to all major points in the city and very close to public transports (both greyhound busses stop and train station for the airport). Guests are great too and this is a very social hostel - but fortunately not a party one. Perfect to make new friends but also to get some good sleep in a quiet place. Toilets in the rooms are a bit old and the cleanliness is not excellent but still good. Highly recommended if you want to spend some good time in Brisbane in great social hostel.

Handy location, friendly staff, simple but good breakfast. Room size is good with a relaxing roof top message pool. Shower curtain design is a bit too narrow to wet the toilet floor. Another point is we can hear noises from people on the street next door around mid night on Thursday and Friday nights ( we were staying on lower floor).

It was great stay. Clean room, quiet, peaceful ambiance plus the beach itself. Professional staff. In short we love it ❤️
