Well meaning staff but management has set it and forget it. I had the worst salad of my life there and the hotel seems to be sticky. The room was nicely appointed and the lovely reception girl carried my bag upstairs.

Great place to stay, was only there for one night but it is a great location near the Strand. Great dining and bar facilities. Rooms were clean and tidy with motel information and menus in rooms. Really liked the convenient car parking, is a bit tight but very handy to hotel, with cctv. Will definitely stay again.

Really excellent property and would definitely stay there again. The location couldn’t be better, the pool and restaurant on level 3 was lovely, as was the breakfast and coffee downstairs. The room was a good size and the bed was quite comfortable. The shower was a little strange with the water flowing underneath the door to a central drain in the bathroom but wasn’t an issue at all. The staff were lovely and couldn’t fault their service. Highly recommended!

The hotel rooms are directly adjacent to the rooftop restaurant, which gets loud and can stay loud very late into the night. Multiple nights we were woken by yelling and people running past our door. The rooms are small and only suitable for more than one person if they are very close. The bathroom/shower area has no privacy, so we frequently left the room while the other was showering. There's a small underground parking garage suitable for compact cars. I had a full-size three- row SUV, and scraped the frame a couple times entering and exiting the steep ramp. Prices are what you would expect for the area. It's a few blocks from the Strand (easy walking) and avoids higher prices. Very close to the ferries to Magnetic Island. Staff are friendly. Food in the restaurants is good. Pool looks nice, although we didn't use it. Separating the rooms from restaurant parties would go a long way towards making this a hidden gem. A door (even a curtain) would certainly help the privacy issue with the bathroom.

We stayed at the Rambutan while I was competing in the Duathlon world championships in Townsville. The night before my race, the hotel hosted two parties on their rooftop common area (a bachelorette party and a wedding reception). This area is right by the hotel rooms and we were not informed that either of these events would be taking place in advance. We were initally told there was no space for us to eat at the restaurant that night (which we had planned on for logistical simplicity with my race) and the noise from the partying hosted by the hotel woke me up multiple times after midnight, which was really unfortunate for my races the next day. We let the front desk know upon checkout and they acknowledged that they had received several complaints about the noise and said all they could do was offer us free coffees at the restaurant for the trouble. At a very minimum I would have expected the hotel to inform us that they would be hosting parties in the common areas that are within earshot of the private rooms. If I had known this was going to be scheduled the night before my race I would have made accommodations elsewhere.

Townsville must have won the Grand Final on the day we stayed. There were revellers partying till midnight around the rooftop pool and bar three millimetres from our unit door, after which they all moved to the street screaming yelling and vomiting until 4am. Never again.

The rooms are quite small, which is why they didn't get an excellent rating. A king sized bed doesn't leave much space when a couple with a suitcase each are occupying the room.

Unfortunately for us as over 80’s. Parking and access was a disaster. A very, very steep drive to the underground parking was beyond me - driving a borrowed car. Extremely steep stairs from the upstairs parking were beyond us - let alone carrying luggage down. The lovely general manager JR or RJ drove and parked the van and helped with luggage

Lovely hotel, close to maggie ferry. Rooms clean, great shower and a nice big bed, all we needed Pool was lovely to sit at for a while, we didnt swim in it. Only thing that was disappointing was that we were overcharged as handed in the vouchers for free drinks for guest with dinner but still were charged and given the wrong chicken schnitzel. All in all, if ever in Oz again, i would stay again and do recommend the Hotel
