Top Gold Coast Hotel Reviews
RACV Royal Pines Resort Gold Coast
"Venue is awesome for young kids. Heated kids pool. Free arcade games. Other games amenities for kids we didn't get to use due to our short stay which we'll make sure on our next stay there."
Crowne Plaza Surfers Paradise by IHG
"Great location, big room with big bathroom and big bed - very well suited for a week-long stay. Awesome view and the pool was great too. On the downside, the room had not been properly vacuumed when we first arrived and the water pressure in the shower was terrible and took a long time to adjust - we wasted a lot of water trying to get clean. The room service food was pretty good, and the sports bar next door was great. We would come back again."
Nightelier Mermaid Waters
"We keep coming back clean, value for money, food is great at the pub"
Mercure Gold Coast Resort
"We had a lovely stay. Room was clean and beds were extremely comfortable. Breakfast was ample and regularly refreshed through the morning. Pool and spa was delightful. Weโd have no hesitation returning to stay again."
Novotel Surfers Paradise
"The curtains in the room were terrible,"
