When is the best time to go to The Gap?

The best time to go to The Gap, Queensland, Australia, is during the dry season, which runs from May to October. During these months, you'll experience clear, sunny days with comfortable temperatures, typically ranging from 20°C to 28°C. This period avoids the higher humidity and rainfall of the wet season, making it ideal for outdoor activities like hiking and exploring the natural surroundings. It's also the best time to enjoy the local wildlife, as it's more active and visible. Families will find this time particularly good for visiting, as the pleasant weather allows for uninterrupted enjoyment of The Gap's many outdoor attractions, such as the walking trails and picnic spots within the national parks. You can comfortably spend full days exploring without concerns about sudden downpours. For couples looking for a relaxed yet active getaway, the dry season provides great conditions for scenic drives, enjoying local markets, and dining outdoors.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel’s cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right The Gap hotel for you.

How much is the nightly rate at a The Gap hotel?

To find the best deals for your stay, be flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.

"Excellent"

Adina Apartment Hotel Brisbane

10/10 Excellent

"We loved this property! It was in a fantastic central location, and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating throughout our stay. The apartment was spacious, comfortable, and had everything we needed. We only wish we could have stayed longer. We would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the area."

Evolution Apartments

8/10 Good

"Second time here & was keen to return. Apartment & everything about it was as good as prior visit except noise from street was much louder - not sure if different position or last time the room had thicker glazing but we all (family of 4) noted it. Would still give it another go but if same would choose elsewhere purely for that reason. Otherwise perfect."

ibis Brisbane Airport Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Check in at the kiosk was quick and easy. Staff in the bar were helpful and friendly. Food was great, good sized portions and value for money. Our room was great and bathroom amenities were good quality. Buffet breakfast had a wide range of hot and cold food, plus juices and coffee machine. Overall a great choice of airport hotel."
