Oaks Townsville Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Quite part of Palmer Street, although it’s a long walk to the Strand and into the City, but if you like walking, it’s great. Staff are friendly and willing to help or assist with any matters. Clean and spacious rooms."

Madison Ocean Breeze

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel/ serviced apartments are a best kept secret down at the strand. So comfortable and quiet it is a real treat to stay at. Between Zoe and Sim on reception they have everything covered, if you need anything they are on point. Easy walk to shops for food, even easier walk To one of many pubs and close to the main road it is quick to get to anywhere.. oh and the view, well from my room is OUTSTANDING… and great way to end the day after a long road trip! Thank you and see you all Again in 2027. Cheers Phil."
