The building is going through a refurb, which is okay, but to not have any aircon and not notify prior to arriving was very disappointing. 1/4 rooms still actually had tooling in there. Overall, wouldn’t return.

Wow! We loved everything about the hotel. The view was spectacular, the pool was beautiful and the room was perfect! The bed was so comfortable, full kitchen, shower was awesome and generally, the ideal location for the night life, beach and just exploring the gorgeous Gold Coast. I live near Coolangatta but I can’t wait to stay here again lol

Thanks Chateau Beachside! Looking to the next stay

Cannot beat the location or the facilities at this Chateau Beachside. A block from Cavill Avenue, sparkling pool, spas, sauna, steam room, tennis court and we overlooked the beach. So so clean and the service was great too.

Staff were friendly enough, location was excellent, views awesome!! However, whilst i understand the build is rather old, it doesnt excuse the state of our room... "Cleaning" was rather rough to say the least, the furniture in poor state. i will not state specifics as that's unfair however be aware and dont expect high quality! Just sad that it was as such becuase this place could be fantastic!

We booked a room informing about a Birthday Celebration. The hotel staff was on the door many times to give a warning regarding noise. The Hotel charged a fine for the Birthday celebration noise. The property is OLD and charging for pre-informed events. Not recommended at all

Great location, room in need of a renovation however comfortable. There was no air conditioning but was told they were currently being installed. Microwave and stovetop was great. No actual balcony to step out onto but could push table and chairs close and look out at the awesome views. Parking was a struggle late in the afternoon so would go out in the morning and back by lunch - plenty of parking then.

It’s a well priced hotel, situated in an awesome location. You get a little welcome gift when you arrive and free parking. The rooms are clean and spacious but they all need a serious makeover as it looks like they haven’t had one since the hotel was built.
