First time staying at the Voco, check-in was easy, staff were friendly. We stayed on the 19th floor with an ocean view. Bed was comfortable, with plenty of room for luggage, bathroom was clean and everything worked well and the dual shower head was a plus, with great pressure and plenty of hot water. We used room Service and the meals were tasty we ordered again the following night, very quick and food was great. Would have liked to have some fresh air but the rooms don’t have opening windows or balcony’s. Parking was easy and secure. Pay at the property but worth it for convenience and safety. Breakfast buffet was enjoyable only issue was the 1st coffee machine was broken the whole time we were there. The 2nd machine was also having issue but we made do. The pool was refreshing and plenty of lounge chairs and sun to relax in. Overall a great stay.

Reception staff state the car park is full only to overhear car park offered to other guests after we've already checked in. Head reception staff member condescending to people of non- English speaking backgrounds. Room card continually times out and doesn't work for your room, so repeatedly had to go back to reception to reactivate the card. Two towels in room for four people and very limited tea/coffee/glasses etc in room- reception staff would not bring up extra towels for your room on request. Told at the restaurant we hadn't paid for breakfast when we did. No apologies from staff for multiple errors. At the end of the day, you get what you paid for- shame as it was previously a nice hotel to stay at.

Excellent location, right next to the Surfers Paradise station and the Q1 sky observation tower. The building is a little old but luckily well maintained. Great breakfast buffet selection and friendly staff service. P.S. if you get the river view, you can get stunning sunset view all from the comfort of the room, which is also very warm during winter as the sun shines in during the colder times of the day.

Changed 3 rooms in 3 nights, our first room was not clean, hair found in the bed, dirty used towels, toilet paper had dust and mould etc on it. Second room our toilet wasn’t flushing properly and then clogged. 3rd room was fine but just extremely inconvenient to change EVERY night.

I recently stayed at the Voco Hotel Surfer Paradise in Queensland, and it was a great experience. The hotel provided a peaceful and clean environment, which was perfect for a relaxing stay. Its location was incredibly convenient, with easy access to all the local pubs and the town center, all within walking distance. We felt very safe throughout our stay. The staff were notably friendly and helpful, adding to the overall positive experience. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable and well-situated place in Surfer Paradise.
