"My partner and I spent our anniversary weekend here along with other typical Gold Coast adventures. The room was lovely, tidy and clean, the staff were all friendly and helpful. The only thing was we weren’t sure on how power worked (you need a second card) and after being asked if we’d stayed there before and said no, we had no idea so we weren’t sure. Otherwise check in was smooth and everyone was lovely at front desk. Parking is opposite the hotel and honestly rather affordable for multiple entry/exit (if you’re wanting to drive around) but it’s not a far walk nor a hard walk. Our beach view was slightly obstructed, however we got a lovely view regardless of the beach, city and hinterland because we were on the 24th floor but laying in bed and sitting on the balcony we had a wonderful view. We had a lovely time regardless and we’d love to be back as soon as possible. Thank you for helping us make our anniversary trip wonderful :)"

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Gold Coast

  1. Book for the cheapest times: Visiting the Gold Coast on a budget is a great value for money, especially in February, June, and August, when hotel prices may drop to lower prices. For those looking to experience the city's landmarks, history, and culture — including its beach, family-friendly spots, shopping, dining, romantic settings, LGBTQ-friendly establishments, theme parks, sea views, golf courses, and business attractions — a stay of at least 3 to 4 days is ideal for exploring these key sites.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: You may discover great savings on hotels in Gold Coast by visiting the Deals section on Hotels.com, where discounted hotel deals could be available. For last-minute getaways, check the Last-Minute DealsOpens in a new window area, and enable email alerts or push notifications to be among the first to know about flash sales and special offers. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool in the Hotels.com app allows travelers to compare hotel prices and amenities, increasing your chances of finding affordable rooms when availability or prices change.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may vary depending on factors like the hotel's location, star rating, and time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates might help you save on your Gold Coast hotel stay. For those interested in unique accommodations, boutique hotels can offer a more personalized experience and sometimes even better value. When you book with Hotels.com, we'll inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average, and if it appears to be on the higher side, we may suggest alternative dates that could help you secure a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels near the downtown area usually tend to be pricier, but thanks to Gold Coast's excellent public transportation links, you may find an independent hotel further out that's more likely to be affordable and still well connected. For those interested in exploring alternative, less crowded neighborhoods or even lesser-known nearby cities, there is often excellent value for money. Opting for these alternative destinations could offer a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
