Hyatt Regency Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"Spacious deluxe room. Close to all Sydney spots of interest."

QT Gold Coast

10/10 Excellent

"Great little get away for a girls trip with my young daughter. The room was spacious, clean and well maintained. Unfortunately the weather was not kind to us which meant we didn’t get to use the pool. However having the cafe and restaurants just downstairs was very handy. Loved that it was close to the main area of surfers yet just far enough away to enjoy a more relaxed vibe. We will definitely be back. Staff were super friendly, helpful and polite."

Mercure Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"PROS: The room whilst small is layed out well, clean, tidy and practical. The bathroom is a good size and a decent bath. Staff was super useful and friendly. CONS: The pool is all one depth and just too deep for an average 7yr old to touch, its heated but still a little cold. The parking is $50/night and is a little smelly The TV is a bit of a nightmare to stream to"
