Ulasan Hope Harbour Hotel

Had to wait while one of our 2 rooms was made up but the room that was supposed to have been made up had only had the beds done. Toothpaste splattered across the bathroom mirror, toilet unscrubbed, no face washers, hand towel or bath mat though there were fresh towels on the beds. The kitchen hadn't been done as there was no dish cloth or liquid for cleaning only 2 tea cups, no mugs and the fridge contained half eaten yoghurt, a full bag of grapes and a 1/4 of rotten watermelon its juices all crusted under it. The well frosted freezer contained a partially eaten iceblock frosted into the freezer, obviously it had been there long enough to be frosted to it. The kitchen had not been stocked with tea coffee sugar or most importantly for me milk (being a little fussy I bring my own tea and coffee) I have doubts about if it was vaccumed due to the pills as several other items on the carpet. I mention the pills as we had young children with us. The aircon remote had no batteries or back to it but we just swopped out the batteries for the T.V. remote The cleaner sent to remedy this politely made it clear that she wasn't the one who'd made up the room. She cleaned the mirror restocked the face washers, hand towel and bath mat, removed the food from the fridge and freezer and upon request gave me a cloth for me to scrub off the crusted watermelon juice. The beds were clean (I checked) with fresh sheets and comfortable. They were clear that they expected courtesy to others by not making alot of noise late at night or slamming doors. The pool area could have been cleaned. I don't know where the dirt came from but it was there when we arrived and still there when we left. The lobby chairs I wouldn't sit in, needed a good scrub with soap and water. They unlocked the freezer at the Cafe late one night for us to buy ice cream. The staff were helpful and polite. The kids loved playing ping pong and swimming.

Firstly, the room was excellent, ultra clean with bath and shower. The sheets were exemplary, bed very comfortable as were the pillows. Bar fridge and microwave, toiletries in the bathroom. Towels excellent. Airconditioning excellent. I was excited to see a very large, modern wide screen TV with onboard Android system. Disappointed that no internet connection (so I could have used my own passwords for my streaming services. Even more disappointed that there was no aerial connected, but I had brought my own tech and internet. I just switched off the TV. Imagine my extreme displeasure to board the 3rd floor lift at 05:00 to have the doors closed - but no button worked! I WAS TRAPPED IN THE LIFT!!! I pressed the yellow emergency button for 5 seconds - no answer - pressed multiple times. I phoned the hotel main number, so they could press the lift call button - no answer. I phoned the 24/7 emergency 1300 number. The operator said she would send someone out - who would phone me with an ETA. Getting anxious, being 60 years old with a heart condition, I dialled 000 to call the POLICE! The dispatcher commended me on remaining so calm. I assured her, being very hot in cramped spaces with very little air was definitely not conducive to my remaining calm. They said to call 000 back if I got out before the fire brigade arrived. Five minutes later I heard voices outside. Someone heard my banging on the lift doors and cries for help. I GOT OUT That night the guy on reception said sorry. I explained that, although the room was marvelous - and that I did eventually get out, a man of my age and I'll health could have died - why wasn't anyone on duty to answer the damn lift emergency phone? He said he was sorry.

1 room they gave us was stinky(there was 2 refigerators and one was upowered and smelled like something is dead inside). Then i asked for anorher room that was okay but in the morning there was no water. Went and asked abot it and they said there is constucton by concil and no water. So i was unable to use water.

Shower handle was bit broken but otherwise okay stay.

I checked in on Monday afternoon and went to my room. After unpacking I laid on the bed with a cup of coffee as I had been driving for five hours to get there. Within ten minutes a guy walked into my room dragging a suitcase. I was up off the bed in a flash and he took off saying sorry as he fled. You need a pass code, not a card to enter the room so obviously the receptionist gave this bloke my room code. I went straight to reception, but it was empty. There were half a dozen people waiting to check in. They were told the receptionist went to pick up a mate from work and would be back in 5 minutes. They said they had been waiting there 40 minutes. I went back down to the reception half an hour later and he said sorry and that was it. He had given someone else my room entry number and sorry was all i got. I never slept for two nights , every noise i heard sounded like my door being opened. I had a 5 hour drive back home with no sleep. The aircon barely worked and took two full days to start feeling cool and I couldn't get hot water through it. It took a couple of minutes to get it to shut off. The mixer was obviously had it. I was down on the coast to visit and help care for a n old mate of mine who doesn't have long to live. I left early morning and returned later at night so no one on reception to inform about my problems. I expect I will have several more trips down to the coast but will not stay here again. I hope this gets passed on to the Hope Harbour management.

Stay was good the room was good enough for what we needed.  Reception staff were not very helpful or informative other staff (cleaners) were helpful.

The hotel is really good value for money. Beds are comfortable and as it is located in quiet area, that gives a chance to get a good quality sleep. Definitely better to have a car when staying in this hotel as it is a bit far from anywhere. Area itself is very ellgant though. Great service from reception team. We had a beautiful vue on the marina.

Lovely staff always helpful and easy and convenient comfortable place to stay ... Really enjoy coming here thank you

Rooms were spacious. Beds were comfortable. They can do better with cleanliness. Front desk was accomodating.

The food was great, the room was okay but it needed more towels and the air conditioning was not working great. The room was not clean that great.

We only spent a night there but it was a magical location. Beautiful views of the canals. Glorious sunrise. Excellent attention. If we ever need to stay in the Gold Coast then this hotel will be in the list.

Excellent place for the price laid back staff always there to help restaurant is good too

I booked this hotel because of the location, wanted to be near by my friend’s house. From the checking up and till check out I was so annoyed. For starters receptionist was so rude, checked in then it was so hard to find my room, it’s like a maze with stairs here and there, imagine you are dragging your luggages! Broken tv, broken door handle, dirty bathtub So over all, not coming back and would not recommend

Love the view from room. You need to walk a bit far from the receptionist. There’s no small spoon for us to make the coffee and no phone in the room. Got someone knocked our door at night. When we checked, no one outside.
