This place is a solid 3 star located on the Strand right in the heart of Townsville. Don't get me wrong, it is by no means a luxury property, but it gives excellent value for money. We felt safe and comfortable, the location gives easy walking access to all of the Strand, restaurants, bars, etc. Great place to stay if you are on a budget!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Attractive historic property. Very clean large rooms with all you need. Staff very helpful, friendly and polite. Quiet neighbourhood, few minutes walk to The Strand or bus to take you to ferry terminal. Easy 10 min walk to supermarket, cafes etc in one direction. Or 20 min in other for same. Most other hotels along Strand appear to have bars and restaurants. For me this just creates more noise and people so if you prefer a more calm stay Yongala would be better choice.
