AustraliaThis hotel is excellent for those looking to be near the action, rather than right in it. It is a little further down the boulevard than some of the other hotels and as such, is quieter and has a different outlook. It would be perfect for families and those looking for a slower pace to their holiday. You can still walk to where you need to be, it will just take you a little bit longer.

AustraliaGreat location just up the end of the esplanade and only a short walk to the main restaurant strip and attractions. Good little bar downstairs. Lovely pool area. Didn’t get around to eating in the hotel restaurant but Muddys restaurant nearby was great for breakfast. Many other places in walking distance to eat at. Was travelling in a group of 8 and we all had rooms nearby which was convenient. We got a great price at less then a $100 bucks a night for a large spacious room.
