Gladstone Hotels with Wi-Fi

From a photographer pensioner's perspective, not being able to afford high-price accommodation, the Aaron Motel in Gladstone, Queensland, made our overnight stay quite affordable. The relative ease with which one, or as many as you wish, can access the Gladstone CBD and waterfront is well worth the inconvenience of the Motel's semi-urban location. The benefit there being this location, unalike the nearby CBD, does not have the volume of noise and traffic as it's visible neighbour. Earlier bedtimes, all the rage with some oldies. If wearing rose tinted glasses, upon removal, notice you may have a, well behaved, tradie's 4wd parked next to your vehicle. Tact is all that's needed to overcome any phobia of tradies. Seriously, try striking up a conversation, maybe about their job, to' break the ice'. So much is learnt through talking. The photographer would do very well by visiting, within reasonable walking distance, the Eastern Shores Precinct after dark. Its coloured water fountain feature is a boon. The rest of the walk around the park's perimeter has many interesting angles and intensities of light. Maybe stop and watch the latest cricket match on a large screen on the grassy reserve. If, unavoidably, you fall asleep on the lawn till dawn, carry on with an early daylight re-shoot. A casual stroll to waterfront proper will realise the same satisfying results as the previous night's shoot. This time it's gulls perched on a mast top, glints of sunrise masking storm clouds, images of a yellow hulled ketch reflected in the smooth, aqua marine, surface of its host body of water. Make sure that you're shooting-away during the morning MLH, ( Magic light Hour), be there well before 8:00 a.m., after which you can expect your stately carriage to turn into a photoshop project. Don't jig around for too long, there's the CBD and all it's got to offer including the coffee. And, of course, the short walk to your unit at the Aaron for a well earned, mid-morning nanny/ poppy nap. Enjoy.

This was an excellent motel for us. A nice, simple place too stay, an easily-accessible Tesla charger and close to a good choice of eateries. But what made it special was Carol's friendly, accommodating attitude. We had a problem a few days after we stayed there on our way home - Carol just said ”Sure, I can help” and the problem was solved. Thanks, we'll stay again.

We booked the 2 room apartment. I cannot fault the room at all. Very clean, new and homely and management were lovely The only negative was the wifi even though we were given the password would not work for us we were there for a week and the mosquitos...Lord knows how they were getting in but we got smashed during the night in bed every night. No fly spray in the rooms, that would have been handy. Gladstone itself is not great and out views were pretty much refineries and smelts on the water. But this accommodation was just right really. Handy location near shopping centres etc,. The rooms can be serviced but they charge you extra for that and the car space was quite small.

Surprised at how well the property was. The Easter holidays unfortunately had the hotel facilities not operating at full capacity but on the whole the cleanliness and service that we received was excellent. Gladstone as a whole was a surprise packet!

I have been here before, it has the best sunset but over time the park view has been built out. Great location, the new renovations are excellent, no tacky carpets and all crisp tiles… bathroom great, beds great… pillows perfect … all the things a bloke wants!!! I won’t mention the rate given… I will just say they deserve more for the room but market rate for Queensland is peanuts for this quality! Lots of other units are empty! Great motel, fresh and clean!!

Stayed here for a night whilst visiting for a sporting event. Spacious room with two queen beds adequately sleeping 4. Located within the Yarella sports club, with various dining options was a bonus of not having to travel elsewhere to eat. Beds were comfy, bathroom clean and room was modern and quiet.

After a torrid few weeks travelling back and forward from South Qld to help care for a very ill close relative in Gladstone , we arrived there at the Central Apartments late on the Thursday afternoon . Staff could not have been nicer and more welcoming were the folks on reception , which under our family circumstances was very much appreciated . Room was large and well appointed and the large eastern facing balcony was extra special . Fridge was massive , as well as other kitchen gear was good. My wife would have loved a TV in the main bedroom as you battle the small fry for control of the lounge TV when Sesame st , Bluey and other children programmes are on . One extra amount of thanks when the manager lady ( sorry did not catch your name ) and Rayne at the front desk printed out a eulogy for me . Especially with my lack of IT skills when my email never came through to the hotel a few times. Many thanks ladies and gents in a stressful and sensitive time for me and the family .

The Peppers Gladstone, the first five star property within the Gladstone region. Guests have state of the art rooms to relax in, two dining options, swimming pool and pool deck bar as well as the option of two gyms to sweat it out in. Attached to the Yaralla Sports club, which has also seen a massive renovation, guests of the Peppers and Mantra hotel are sure to be amazed by the overall facilities and friendly staff.
