3 Stars Hotels in Queensland, Australia

For a relaxing holiday with no fuss consider this accommodation. It was perfect from the room, views, facilities and location. Rooms as you expect for the price. Views that you don't get sick of. Facilities of laundry, bbq, spas, pool and games/gym area were great. Location location I didn't have a hire car nor did I need one walked to Capri boat hire and the skypoint observation building and all the shops (bws across road and coles 2 blocks away) Right in the heart of Surfers! As for the bad reviews they want everything for nothing. The $3.00 beach towel hire was for the whole 5 day stay not each day. The staff were helpful and friendly. A/c and fan worked a charm. No room service while here 5 days but that's how they keep the prices down. Couldn't hear noise of road much as the surf is loud. I will definitely be back. Thanks again.

I left another local hostel after one night as it was just too noisy - I wanted a place for a good rest so that I could really enjoy all the amazing day trips nearby. This place did just that! I booked a single occupancy room (shared bathroom) on the day and stayed for 4 nights - great value for money and really did the job - I had a perfect rest here. Other guests were of all ages and were friendly. The hostel was very quiet at night and put on some optional entertainment (I chose not to partake and it didn’t disturb me at all). The pool area is small but great! Big kitchen area to cook in and store food. The staff were great at helping me book day trips and the location is fantastic for these (I did the Great Barrier Reef, karunda skyrail and daintree trip from here and the location was perfect). I would definitely stay again!

I recently stayed at the Soho Hotel Brisbane from January 3rd to January 4th, 2024, and I must say it was a fantastic experience! The check-in process went smoothly; the staff was very welcoming, and the room was clean and comfortable. The hotel's central location made it easy for me to explore the city. I particularly appreciated the attention to detail in the room amenities. Overall, it was a delightful stay at the Soho Hotel Brisbane.

Close to the airport and wonderful for an early morning flight, the hosts are very lovely and helpful. The rooms are clean and comfortable, everything was in working order. To be honest the air con was great on a hot day, and close to some to shops.

Always a great place to stay. The convenience of its near-to-airport position is always appreciated and it is the hotel of our choice when stopping overnight in Brisbane. The reception process is always streamlined and we never experience any delays. Well done Ibis !!!

The personnel is helpful and friendly. The location is perfect and the bar/club is always busy. You can eat, drink and party all at the same place. The air conditioning in the rooms was a bit too strong, and there is no controller to modify it. It's a centralised system. The bed has to be done by yourself when arriving. Finding it done would be appreciated. A shelf and individual light in the bed would be really useful. The building is very big and has enough room in the common areas and kitchen (which is busy at any time). Services are fine overall.

Easier to nice location, polite people, easy to get help

Bupper within walking distance of Gold Coast Airport in Coulangatta. I booked a private room to recover because I stayed in a very noisy 々 good buffer １ weeks until the day before my stay (laughs) I don't have a single for four consecutive nights, and the first two nights are twin singles It was like 50 〜 60 Australian dollars per night in Su, and 40 Australian dollars per night from the third night? Still, it is broken compared to the surrounding hotels. (Australia is really expensive and hard to stay) Also, it is good to move because it is difficult to move at check-in, so if you ask if you can't do it in the same room during your stay, you already have a reservation I was told I couldn't. Still, the staff was good. Except for the owner, the staff were all friendly and nice backpackers (laughs). The facility itself was old, well maintained, and there were several public spaces, and the privacy was moderately protected and cozy. Dark room, dining room, bright room with billiard table, spacious garden where smoking and BBQ can be done, garden with pool, and other garden with bench ５ places? There was. Unlike the buffer in the city, it was such a buffer that I wanted to stay again in a calm atmosphere. There are no restaurants and supermarkets around, but it is close to the airport, so it is good for the night before the flight or the rest after entering the field. I will definitely stay again soon.

Stayed here to access the city and had a long walk along the river and up a very steep climb to the top to get to the Hotel lugging my bags and cameras walking from the station. Room was a short space bigger than a double bed with a very tiny bathroom and shower. I liked the jug and tea and coffee but missed having a window. The room was clean and the bed comfortable and it was adequate for an overnight stopover. There is a bus stop almost opposite and the views from the cliffs across the road are amazing

I wish I had of read these reviews prior to booking a room. I wanted something close to the airport and at last minute this was all that was left. I don't consider $148 a cheap room for 1 night, a shared backpackers room would of been cleaner. I got a text after booking and paying asking me to enter more details again including credit card, it said to upload a photo, didn't say upload your licence so therefor never sent the room code, when I rang I got a lady I could not understand who explained I didn't need to worry because I could do it at reception, when we arrived at reception the lady told me I MUST DO IT OR I CAN'T STAY!! 1hr later and 2 others in reception having the same issues we were given a room code, the room smelt like a dead wet dog, we were on ground level the curtain was see through and didn't block any of the elements out, the shower was that small you could only fit in one leg at a time.... prior to arriving I asked if they had a laundry on site I was told yes to only be told once checked in the washing machine is broken.. NEVER EVER AGAIN.

I stayed here for four nights, check in was easy, the staff were lovely, the view of the city skyline was lovely and the price was good considering how close I was to the city . I needed to be close to the my University campus which was only a quick walk down the hill. The train and small Woolworths were also very close walking distance as were plenty of good coffee places. the bathroom was recently renovated and clean and there were notices up saying they were doing ongoing renovations so hopefully this improves some of the downsides I experienced. The downsides of this place include, the two pillows were very flat, however as it was just me I used both. The carpet inside my room was very stained with what looked like pink/maroon-ish coloured paint or something. the bedside tables were dusty and in need of a wipe down. The restaurant which I only ventured into once was not good. I ordered vegetarian nachos which were terrible and barely any sauce and no sour cream the waitress only told me they had run out of sour cream after waiting ages and then being presented with them at which time I was offered tomato sauce as an alternative they cost about $17. I ate them only because I was exhausted and couldn't be bothered doing anything about it. The glass doors to the balcony were also very dirty and...More

The hotel is in an area surrounded by bars so perfect for someone who wants to party. A long walk to the centre and a 5 minute walk to Fortitude Valley station. The reception area and very large kitchen are always spotlessly clean. I was in an 8 bed dorm which had a large table island in the middle of the room with individual open cupboards. Not big enough for anyone’s bag to fit in though. The room became extremely messy as people couldn’t store bags and suitcases and we are all very trusting leaving our belongings inside these open cupboard spaces. The hostel does provide each person with a small safe above said open cupboard. 1 separate toilet and 1 separate shower in the room for all 8 people. Very frustrating! Other than that, the bed was comfortable.

We stayed in room 19 which we found to be very noisy. The slamming of doors whenever guests were leaving their rooms was constant - through to the early hours of the morning. Guests talking in the hallway, cars going past on the main road and items rattling on the roof. If the TV was on, most sounds were not heard. It wasn't until you were ready to settle in for a goods night rest, that every sound became apparent. We were also disappointed with the manager during our stay - Friday 7th June to Monday 10th June 2019. We had not met this gentlemen before. He treated us with disdain and it showed on his face. We showed him 2 drink vouchers we hadn't used on our previous visit and he looked at them and said they are old and not to be used. We said there was no expiry date and he said ”doesn't matter” & threw them in the bin and stared at us. Very embarrassing to say the least. We asked for soda water with no ice and no lime and he made a soda water with ice and lime. We have stayed here 5 times previously and have always been treated like valued guests. This trip we felt like lepers. We are not sure if we will be back. It is a very convenient location and the housekeeper is very thorough and very polite. the bed and pillows were comfortable.

If you look forward to a new meeting! Every day is prepared every day, and it's very nice to make a new friend space. I met a new friend here. It's Nahel. I received too much help with my friend while I stayed in Selina. Nahel is an indispensable employee of Selina. Thank NAHEL˚₊·—̳͟͞͞♥

Great hotel overlooking the canals - the ambiance, the finish and the amenity at the Hope Harbour Hotel was outstanding. Beautifully built (it used to be the Ramada) spacious, big open deck overlooking the canals and boats. Nice little bar and separate dining room - again overlooking the canal. Staff and service was very good - it was personal and felt very comfortable just being there. Twin room with balcony overlooking the canal. Beautiful beds and lovely pillows - good size TV, excellent bathroom and tea/coffee plus fridge in the room.

Good location motel for families, in front of Gold Coast Highway that close to the bus stop to go to airport or to the boardbeach south, where we can easily hop in to the trem / bus to central (surfer paradise, carvill / cypress ave) or Movie World. The motel have swimming pool and big bed with complete facilities for families (netflix, iron, toaster, microwave, refrigerator, utensils) and also has a 70 model bathroom in very clean condition. Besides hotels they have 24 night owl supermarket and many restourante (italia, japanese, ice cream etc) with 5 mins walk distance to Mermaid beach at the end of the road.

Nothing to complain about the accommodation itself. Everything is fine: location, cleanliness. But it was one of my worst travel experiences so far. I stayed in a 10 bed female dorm. There were only 3 occupied beds that night. One girl brought a man to the room and had sex on the upper bed at 5 am in the morning. I was really shocked. It was the guest problem so I am not blaming the hostel. I'm just writing what happened that night.

Paradise island resort. Not vacuumed and really dirty around and behind furniture. 2 pots with tefal coming off, toxic. Kitchen CBS appear to have things just thrown in. No flannel unless you pay extra. No dish towel. Difficulty finding car park. Dw had cutlery left in, smelly, no powder to use. No bulbs work in lounge lamp. Sign to clean or get charged. Party of 7, drunk, disorderly, smoking and diving IN the pool. No answer from onsite mangement. Told desk following day and pretty much told there were no complaints. We know there were others complaining. Went on for hours. How do you complain when no management here and no answer on phone.Wish I'd checked the reviews before staying in this dirty room. Huge disappointment. The only benefits here are maybe a lovely pool and location. You could do a lot to tidy up the unit. I have photos of mess but can't upload them.

Do not stay here, bedbugs!!!! On our second night of staying here we discovered a bed bug infestation, forcing us to leave the hotel and all our clothes behind. When we first alerted the hotel the next day they continuously berated us for not going to them straight away despite it being 1am when we first discovered the bugs and not seeing any hotel staff at reception when we tried to find them. The manager, Matt tried to say they have their hours on the check in sheet they provided however it doesnt not say anywhere on this that its open till 4am. The main problem of the bed bugs was trying to be shifted onto us for not alerting them in the middle of the night. The hotel staff further attempted to shift blame onto us, accusing us of bringing the bed bugs in despite the whole ecosystem of bed bugs, babies larve and dead ones under the bed that have clearly been there well before our one night stay. The hotel reluctantly gave us a refund for our stay after we requested it, however they refused any reimbursement for the significant expenses we incurred in dry cleaning and replacing our belongings. This experience has cost us hundreds of dollars in new clothes, additional hotel expenses, and cleaning services. We understand that bedbugs can be an issue in hotels, the disappointment lies in the inadequate response and understanding demonstrated by the hotel staff when addressing the matter. It's essential for establishments to handle such situations with empathy and professionalism, aspects that were obviously lacking in our experience. Save yourself the trouble and money - steer clear of this place

Our stay here was OK but not brilliant. Although we had paid for the room we got an email about two days before saying if we did not pay the $100 bond our booking could be cancelled. We tried unsuccessfully for hours to contact them by phone and in the end the hotel we were staying in up the coast managed to contact them on our behalf and pay the bond. We were travelling all over Australia and this was the only hotel that wanted a bond before we even arrived and what for I am not quite sure! We were told which room we were in and that it would be open with the key inside. What happened if someone just helped themselves to stuff in the room and we got charged from the bond? Parking was a bit of a nightmare as there are not enough spaces for the rooms, we managed to squeeze our car into one of the spaces but were constantly worried about damage. Within walking distances to lots of shops, bars and restaurants and of course the beach. Room was OK although the carpets could do with replacing. It was not one of the best places we stayed in but it served a purpose for 2 nights. We got the bond back within 24 hours but were not happy about having to pay this. Would not stay here again.

On the 14.3.23 at 1.25 pm my adult son and I visited the Hinterland Hotel for lunch as it was a busy day for us, we approached the counter and the mature aged blond was serving a patron first and we kindly waited, whilst the woman was pouring the beers she asked what did I want, I asked, ”Is this where we order lunch?” she replied, ”No, use the paddy app on the tables.” I said, ” I have a government phone that does not accept these apps.” She then replied, ”Use his!”. I nicely said ” My son has a vintage Nokia and that wont work.” The woman said abruptly, ”It works on all phones!” ”Can you please give me a paper menu,” I asked, ”NO PAPER MENU'S” was the stern reply... The other patron looked at us in disbelief. We felt discriminated against and we left as though we were won't welcome there. I have lived at Springbrook Mountain since 1977 and will never go back to this establishment ever again. P.S. Do you need an App to play the Poker machines out the back?

I would definitely stay again!

The air conditioning in the rooms was a bit too strong, and there is no controller to modify it. It's a centralised system. The bed has to be done by yourself when arriving. Finding it done would be appreciated. A shelf and individual light in the bed would be really useful. The building is very big and has enough room in the common areas and kitchen (which is busy at any time). Services are fine overall.

This Motel was disgusting.It just smelt of cigarette smoke and a bottle of bleach.But the room was still dirty.The door did not lock properly.The shower had dirty shoe marks in it the fridge did not work and my food was spoiled.The bed was like a brick so uncomfortable and I only sat on it.I rang to get help with the fridge and they were not helpful at all.I had to move and spend more money on a motel.And still 2 wks later the manager won’t return my phone calls or emails will not refund my money.Highly recommend you never stay at this motel is absolutely disgusting.The fridge had mould in it.

I stayed at Hotel Tropiq in mid-October 2023 and had a good stay. Positives - great location with nearby cafe, Indian restaurant, and British restaurant. Only a $20 taxi to the Pier/Marina or 20 minute walk into the city. The reception staff were super friendly/helpful. Pleasingly, the room perfectly suited my solo fishing trip too. Negatives - Hotel Tropiq was very basic/ghetto with a peculiar room layout. The beds were on rollers and hard to sleep on. Windows and sliding door were very dodgy. No insect screens on one window! It was certainly a budget style of accommodation. In future, I will stay somewhere nicer if my girlfriend joins me

we stayed a couple of nights in a 2br cabin...well set up and has all facilities u will need...except wifi...comvenient location if u have a car...but bus nearby...staff werent real friendly...but helpful...park next to cabin...quiet and comfy

This was the first time ever I have had a verbal altercation at a hotel with a staff member at a hotel due to service issues. The front clerk would not allow my bags (one suitcase and a laptop) to be left after check out without paying for lockers, despite a $175 a night room charge and an empty storage area. He said this was common hotel practice. I challenged him & explained most hotels allow bags to be kept for a few hours after checking out – after this the desk man changed his tune and said this was just their hotel’s policy. I felt like I was staying at a backpackers and was very disappointed at the policy, and at the service. The experience I had on check out alone (especially the attitude of the staff member) made this easily the worst experience I have had at a hotel in the last 10 years. It was a shame because the gentleman on check in was lovely and allowed bags to be stored prior to check in, when I arrived on an early flight. The room itself was at the opposite end of the hotel and was a 5 minute walk down a long hall to get to the room. It was also noisy at night time as I was given a room adjacent to the main street (Grafton Street). The positives – the location is excellent (right in the centre of town) and the quality of the rooms and room size is ok. Honestly though, my recommendation is to steer clear of this hotel - there are lots of great hotels in Cairns that are far better for the same price (or less). And I know many locals who feel the same way about this place.

The photos provided by the operators are extremely deceptive. The accomodation is old and run down. The shower tiles were painted at some stage, and it is now peeling off both the floor and the walls. The “updated” vanity basin and tap are poorly sizes and you are unable to fully wash your face due to the shape and size of the basin with a shorter necked faucet . There is no complete enclosure for water in the shower resulting in you flooding the bathroom each time you shower- we ended up using the common showers in the passageway to attempt keep our room dry. The toilet paper is only single ply so bring your own if you decide to stay here !! Our towels and sheets had stains on them and the pillows are flat and lumpy. I wouldn’t swim in the pool unless you’ve had your latest tetanus shots. We were followed back to the accommodation by a slightly hostile homeless person one night which was slightly unnerving for our teenage daughters. The nicest part of this accommodation is the outdoor BBQ area. The breakfast provided smelt ok, but we decided to eat at the cafe at the marina each day as we were heading out to the reef and islands anyways. We decided to stay here and save money as generally we are out during the day and only need a comfortable bed and a clean shower- next time we will be going back to our regular accommodation closer to the Esplanade. I

Once I got used to it (it took me a day or so), I liked the place! The manager, Mike, was laid-back, friendly and always very helpful. We arrived on a dark, rainy day and night (normal for the time of year in Cairns) and my first impressions of the accommodation were a bit gloomy: breeze-block walls (thankfully painted white), *****-lighting, a bit of a stale/damp aroma and sofa with black-tape repairs. However, for most of our stay we had sunny (and mostly dry) weather and it felt much better in the apartment and the breeze-block walls protected us from most of the neighbourhood noise. The apartment was clean and well-equipped. The cooker worked well - we didn't mind using matches to light the hobs. Good, clean toilet / shower room. The shower was powerful enough with water staying consistent at the chosen temperature. Very good value.

We stayed at the Edge Hill Tavern the night before our flight back home because it is not far from the airport. We arrived 2 hours early and the staff wasn’t bothered at all. They immediately checked us into the room. There were some struggles with the key system and they instantly gave us free drinks at the bar which was very very nice and courteous. As our flight left in the evening we asked for a late check out which was no problem at all! We were so impressed and exited about the staff as they were really friendly. The rooms are just perfect. You’ve got a good working AC a big TV with Netflix the bed is unbelievably comfortable and the bathroom was nice and clean. We were really happy during our stay as we were treated in such a good way! We would really recommend the hotel!

It is very rare to have a hotel of this price during the Spring Festival, so if this hotel can meet the basic needs of rest, in addition to additional facilities, it is really good value for money! First of all, the location of the hotel is a certain distance from the city center. It is a half-hour walk, but there is nothing to visit in the city, it is nothing more than a supermarket to buy things. Secondly, the hotel's facilities are complete, basic things are available, and you can rest well at night. There is also a kitchenette in the room where you can cook your own meals, which is really a bonus. Finally, because it is a motel, the service is basically absent, but the front desk staff are very enthusiastic, so there will be no uncomfortable feeling.
