Q1 Resort & Spa

Great location, easy and secured car park with never an issue finding a car space. Elevators in the process of being renovated. The renovated elevators look amazing. Rooms are dating but clean, tidy and warm in the winter months. The shower had some black gunk coming from the lower track but everything else was very clean. Kitchen has everything needed to function for the basic cook including a small draw dishwasher. Fridge was of a good size, lounges were of abundance, TV had all the Apps but not free to air TV. We just used the 7 & 9 Apps. Remember to sign out of your Apps before you leave. A very pleasant stay and will be returning.

Booked a family room which came with a king size in the main bedroom with a separate bedroom with two single beds. We somehow got a room with views of the beach though we had only booked a city view room. Washer and dryer conveniently within the room. Convenient car parking within the hotel basement. Convenient access to tram just outdoors. Quite good value for money considering the alternatives at a similar price point. Negatives: There was only a single bathroom, and that too wasn't lockable. Sauna facilities accessible via the gym, but can't go into the gym with kids. Indoor swimming pool available, but it's a single depth of 1.5m, which was too deep for the kids. Woolworths/Coles is a little too far for quick shopping trips, though there's a convenience store close by.

Did not go to the hotel but to the observation deck to have lunch. It was amazing going up the super fast lift. The view is breathtaking. Walking around and getting a full city view/ocean view was a lovely experience. Can't complain about the food as it was all pretty good. If you're the kind of person who doesn't finish a pizza and wants to take the leftovers home, make sure to take your own container as they don't have any to give you.
