Search hotels in Rockhampton

There are a lot of great touristy places to visit around Rockhampton. The place itself isn't that great, but is a good stop if you're traveling North or South. Need to watch out and do research on which fuel station to fill up at as the prices do change quite drastically. I was and will only be there for a quick stop, however, the outskirts of Rockhampton does have some very promising places to visit and enjoy.

Rockhampton can only be described through metaphor: the heritage hotel, built in 1898 I’m told, and in fairly original condition. Not a problem. Essential safety concerns though? EG: Four flights of stairs to the residential areas on the third floor. The second set of stairs, which take a left turn away from the lights in reception, have no lighting, and the lights go out in reception and the entrance anyway, at night. The first two steps of the second level are just a “be careful” warning. Dark red carpet, and after sunset, walking downstairs, the two bottom steps just disappear into the darkness, and that is so easy to topple over if you’re not watching every step and if you don’t know how to land like a cat in such a case. And no, there are no staff on hand to help with your suitcase after hours, when all the lights go out anyway. I guess the shiny brass bannisters are expected to suffice. I‘ve replaced my suitcase, but only the singing bus driver singing happily to himself whilst zooming along the highway in the middle of the night, gave me any reason to think better of the world after that experience. The photo is of the Burdekin River from the bus the next morning.

Great people plenty of variables when going out to eat.Very nice down by the river.Public pool great and only $2 admittance.Lots of public transport.Got easily from rocky to Yeppoon & then onto great Keppel on public transport,so very cheap.

We stayed at the Criterion Rockhampton. Best stay ever. Rooms and service excellent. Staff went the extra mile for us. Jay at reception was exceptional. Would recommend to everyone. Food and Rooms were great. Sometimes have to wait a bit longer for meals, but who cares! When the food and service is so good!!.

What a treasure trove of Colonial and Federation architecture. Rockhampton is a dream to lovers of historical buildings. The Quay St walk along the river is beautiful. The Riverstone Tea House with its chandeliers, thin timber boards flooring and exquisite chine was pure delight. A stay in Rockhampton at the historic Denison Boutique Hotel with breakfast at Riverstone Tea House filled my soul.

Liked · Was a lovely Boutique Hotel that used to be Railway Administration Offices. The room was decorated in that period, you feel as if you have left the outside world and ventured into another. The bed was very soft but comfortable. The room was spacious. The lounge chair and seats where very comfortable. The room was open space and had a big spa and the shower was in the spa which could make it difficult for some people to clime in.
