It's a new build well-appointed and is furnished well but could be so much more homely with at least a couple of lounge cushions and throws a rug or 2 and bedside lamps, sadly it lacked " soul ", but these minor details would prevent us staying again as 3 couples.

"Everything went fine over the weekend. We only had one small blip over breakfast. We booked for 2 adults and 2 kids - giving our kids age of 14 when we booked. When we went to breakfast, the breakfast staff said breakfast was only including kids, which is 12 years and under. We were always clear on the kid's ages so I'm not sure why they weren't included in the 'breakfast included' option. Very confusing. This should be made very clear when booking as the breakfasts at the hotel is very expensive - over $50 a person!"

"We loved staying here at the Novotel Surfers Paradise. The only thing I can suggest is that while they are asking the visitors to be “green”, they only offer 1 peg hook and a towel rail suitable for only 1 towel. Having more hanging areas for wet towels and bathers would be the icing on the cake."

"Two adults and two little kids stayed here on Friday and Saturday night over the Airshow weekend. I had read some of the other reviews and I had low expectations thinking it was going to be a bit tired. But our room was great. Clean. The room itself was modern and fresh. Two double beds in the one room, as expected. Big bathroom. It was great having a combined shower bath so the kids could have a bath. Very comfortable. No issues with bed comfort or water pressure. Balcony is very small- I don’t like when there are table and chairs pushed up against the balcony railing. Overall, exceeded expectations."
