We had the king suite. Our room was very spacious and clean. The mountain views were nice. Air conditioning works great. There is Beam e-scooter hire parking at the front of the hotel. The bar is nice. Only tip to know is sometimes when you swipe your room key, if turning the handle down doesn’t work try turning it up (counter clockwise) something the front desk told us after we had trouble.

Wonderful stay. Hotel rooms were clean and comfortable bed with two different pillow options (soft and firm) being from Melbourne we really appreciated the aircon being efficient, so much so we needed to turn it down down at night so it wasn’t so chilly! The pool was absolutely lovely! Could use a few more sun beds. What made the hotel experience even better was the friendly staff! Everyone was so lovely and efficient, always had a smile. The happy hour drinks were great. Food was so yummy and nice big sizes, especially for the two salads on the menu, was very full after which doesn’t happen often for salads! We will certainly be returning! Thank you Harbourside Hotel!

We booked two rooms, but due to a flight, we had to do a late check in. The receptionist was very friendly and everything was good. But moment later, my friend messaged me that her room was not made. She reached out to the receptionist, who had the best effort to look for sheets and made the bed for her. Unfortunately, no pillow cases were provided. Room has a dated smell both rooms My friend was offered a free breakfast as a compensation. Little did she know that the free breakfast was specified to a particular date. Talk about it later paragraph. The next day we had a whole day of activity in the sea which required us to leave the hotel at 6:30am and returned to our room for a quick shower before dinner. We were both not happy with the shower. The hot water would stopped for a while and run again. Everytime it stopped, there's a loud clung sound. So I was taking a cold water shower essentially. I went to complained at the receptionist but they can do so little, as that's the last night in staying. my frd told me that she also had the same issue. We were both very unimpressed with this hotel. My friend went you claim her free breakfast since our second day is free, but she found out that the free breakfast is only for the day before. She was not informed about it. And on a second thought... why would anyone want to put a date restriction on a win back compensation. I don't understand. So no bkf. We checked out the day after. Very unhappy with our stay.
