Great place to stay, only thing they could do better is the self closing doors make a decent bang when inconsiderate people don't hold them to shut, maybe some of that thin rubber strips in door jam

This is part of the KDV Sport complex. Nice room, good bed, clean, BUT the bathroom we had basically had a postcard sized shelf for toiletries (seriously). The sink is square, quite small, and only a small space for a bar of soap. Sure, it does have a medicine cabinet but that won't hold my toiletries bag. Other than a space problem in the bathroom it is a great place. Free mini-golf, sauna, and pool. Bit of a walk from hotel to sport complex.

Great location. Pretty good price. The room was small but clean and the beds were really comfy. Shame about the breakfast. $20 for cereal or fruit or toast... pretty average. Coffee was extra on top. Overall a good place to stay and would stay here again but find somewhere else for breakfast.

Excellent staff who are friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable, clean and super quiet. The restaurant is lovely and our meal was very good. The wait staff were excellent. There is not much undercover parking, but plenty of onsite open spaces, protected by a security gate. We have used this hotel previously and will continue to return on our next trip. Thank you Elite Gold Coast staff.
