Top Elanora Hotel Reviews

Nightelier Mermaid Waters

10/10 Excellent

"The room was spacious and clean exactly like it was pictured. Breakfast was included in our stay and there was a good variety of food offered which we enjoyed. Staff were friendly and very helpful, definitely recommend."

Paradise Resort Gold Coast

8/10 Good

"Overall good stay with grandkids Clean rooms, helpful staff, good pool for kids. Plenty to do. Excellent spa pool and good restaurant. Daily paid parking is good value for money. The unisex showers poorly maintained, hot water does not flow properly - had to shower kids in cold water on a cold morning. The toilet was clean. The website which has daily information was not updated properly and only same staff were aware of the cancellations and changesm"

Mercure Gold Coast Resort

8/10 Good

"Nice property. Quiet location. Good amenities, my son loved the outdoor soccer court. Small bar fridge. Stairs only if not staying on a ground floor can make it difficult with heavy luggage. Parking far from rooms. Staff can help tho. Restaurant was understaffed for service on our night but food great."

Rydges Gold Coast Airport

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were very nice and updated. The family rooms were fantastic. The one we stayed in was at the corner of the building so we had great views on both sides with the floor to ceiling windows. The only downside was the lack of a safe in the room but overall the hotel felt secure and safe. The staff was wonderful. We will definitely be revisiting on our next trip."
