Quaint Rooms with fantastic restaurant opposite

We booked a lovely room for one night on our week long road trip from Brisbane to Airlie Beach. The room was exactly what we expected, really quaint and ideal for one night. We asked the receptionist if she could recommend anywhere nearby to have a great steak and were recommended to the Great Western, directly opposite the hotel, which was very lively and served fantastic food. As an added bonus, as we were able to walk to the restaurant, I was able to have a drink with my meal.

Historic old building however needing renovation and upkeep. Bed so old and worn it was unpleasant to sleep, ended up with sore back. Complained to staff who said they would consult management and respond. No response in the four days we stayed. Had to pay in advance with no refund probably because of complaints and the possibility of disputes with customers. I was aware of several others who had complained and had been fobbed off. Property is next to railway and had 5 freight trains run all Saturday night, could not get to sleep. Very limited staff on site, only between 9.00am and around 1.30pm. No room clean for the four days we stayed with other members of our Car Club. Bins were over filled, could not replace used towels, etc. Could not recommend for a stay.

I booked 5 nights at Denison Boutique Hotel but had to leave after 3 due to a terrible experience. The room had a persistent dripping shower tap right next to the bed, making it impossible to sleep. I reported it immediately and was told the hotel was already aware of the issue but couldn’t fix it or offer a new room. The manager was dismissive and unhelpful, telling me to “suck it up” and repeatedly suggesting I could leave if I wasn’t happy — without a refund. Despite eventually sending a tradie, the issue remained. The manager was rude, confrontational, and unprofessional in front of my child while she finally offered a room exchange. The facilities were run-down and the room lock was nearly broken. My daughter and I felt unsafe and unwelcome, so we checked out early and forfeited two nights’ payment. This was the worst hotel stay I’ve ever had in Australia. Absolutely not recommended.
