Room was comfortable. Lounge chairs were dirty/stained. Benchtop cooktop would have been appreciated to cook small meals or even supply cooking utensils to use at onsite BBQ facilities.

Great Location , amazing views. Rooms are standard but comfortable, pool is nice with views over the coral sea. There is a short walk uphill from the town centre, this is not to taxing but could be for some people. Recommend...

Excellent walkable location BUT hill to walk up to property was steep which could be problematic for some people, All taps leaked and shower dripped constantly, bathroom cupboard had water damage and falling apart at the base, hot water ran out quickly, no stove top, had ants in kitchen and bathroom, and room and furniture was in dire need of updating - should have been rented at a reduced rate. Therefore, booking advertisement was misleading. When speaking with management, they mentioned the room was to be renovated soon, so maintenance approach was minimal. It's a shame that this room reflects poorly on the hotel. Not sure of the state of other rooms. The Anchor Bar was very good. Would only stay again if we had a renovated room with fully equipped kitchen as the location was excellent! I'd call hotel before booking to inquire about room condition and its amenities!

Even though the description states ‘Free WiFi’ the room did not have it. Only in pool area, which is not appropriate if you have to run a work conference call. Very misleading… it’s like saying ‘We have free WiFi, but you have to go to the closest Starbucks’.

Excellent position for a reasonable price, however, the property itself is looking a little tired. Our room was a good size, with a nice view, but did not have a lounge room light, there were no towel hooks or towel rails in the bathroom (so nowhere to hang towels), the bathroom shower curtain rail fell down, the particle board ledges in the wardrobe were on the way out etc.

The property was well located and the staff and service was great. The room itself was clean but very dated for the cost. Simple things like light globes missing leaking tap Tv and remote that need replacing. It would be lovely if it had a facelift.

When we arrived at the hotel we thought it was lovely,staff surroundings ect. The views are amazing! We then got told where our room was (up a steep hill) it was at the top of the hill which we felt was right out of the way. There is also no wifi in the rooms which for us was a huge let down. You only get wifi round the main pool and reception area. They were the only down falls we had. The hotel its self is spotless.

It’s got incredible views, decent restaurant, bed is small but comfy, and staff are super pleasant and friendly…….that’s about it. The property is run down - inside and out, requires upkeep or an overhaul, and housekeeping is poor…….is it a “you get what you pay for?” The stay wasn’t a bargain. The room was not swept or mopped - hair and bits on the floor, tables benches not wiped, the fridge looks newish, the bathtub not clean - hair inside the tub, a huge stain on the bottom of the tub, hair and dust and base of toilet, cobwebs on the windows. I like that 1.5 rolls of toilet paper and 2 tiny tubes of shampoo are there to cover your stay, reception is only open certain hours - so if you run out of toilet paper in the middle of the night it’s a problem. The thin tiny blanket provided is not enough to warm some people at night (we stayed during winter). Only the spa is heated and only one pool is available when they claim 2. Parking is good but some access and spaces are very tight so if you have a larger vehicle it may be inaccessible in some parts. Doors and balcony doors lock but are not super secure. There are long term or permanent tenants living there, with a “you’re in my home” attitude - so you will hear loud music, or they will put cones on parking that they believe belong to them (there is no allocated parking), they will be loud in the early hours of the morning…..I guess we all want to feel the “my home” vibes where we live. If clean, I would maybe stay again.

Excellent location! I didn’t have a car but found I could walk everywhere I wanted to get to which was SUPER handy! I think some rooms MIGHT be a little noisier if you’re near the pool (just on weekend day evenings because there’s a cute little pop up bar that opens really close to the pool) but my room wasn’t near there so I had a lovely quiet spot and SUCH a great ocean view! The room itself was totally fine, had everything I needed with a good amount of space, comfy bed and just the best balcony and view. Staff were really nice, welcoming and accommodating. If you book, it might be worth doing it directly with them, just so you know where abouts you are room-wise, but overall, a really great spot, highly recommended this place!

A standard room should have standard inclusions. There was no remote for the air con/heater. The hot water ran out within 2 minutes, There weren’t enough utensils for 2 people. The bathroom fan didn’t work. Only one face washer for 2 people. We had one towel each for 4 nights. The carpet in the room was sticky to stand on and needed a clean badly. The laundry facilities were appalling. The washing machine didn’t work properly. The clothes came out the same as they went in. The reception wasn’t attended past 6pm. On the upside it has awesome views.

Amazing restaurant but dated accommodation
Restaurant food at The Anchor Bar was exceptional, credit to the chef. Good location to Airlie Main Street. Rooms are very dated and although maintained really showing their age. Noise from other guests very loud to the point of seeming to be in the same room. Connecting doors may as well be left open. No privacy on balconies at all and need to keep curtains closed in case the neighbours are on their balconies. Bathrooms could do with a really good scrub floor to ceiling.
