When we arrived was initially given room that wasn't what was booked and was already occupied, was soon sorted after going back to reception. Accessible room was good but nowhere to put soap in shower and nowhere to put other toiletries as was only a tiny shelf available. In main room there was no suitcase holder so case had to be put on desk to enable easy access. Lovely area to relax near pool and look out over sports precinct. Lovely meal in restaurant,but continental breakfast very basic. Parking area good. Would consider staying there again if ever back in area.

Comfortable, quiet, with efficient staff. Room very clean, bed mattress firm but linen very soft and cozy. Shower head can be raised and lowered, and shower walk-in had no step up nor down - handy for those with vision impairment or minor mobility issues.

Great stay

We wanted a hotel adjacent to the GC Suns stadium in Carrara. The Elite is an easy walk across from it. The hotel itself was really good value for money. The room was clean, well appointed and big enough for us. We had a nice quick meal in the bistro which was well priced and very good.

Lack of dining options (esp. children) incl. breakfast. Needs to be some form of rubber / stopper underneath shower door to prevent wet bathroom floor. No matter which way I had the shower head, water still went out the door. Very clean & walking distance to sport stadium.
