Guest reviews for Sunshine Tower Hotel

4 out of 5

Nice staff; helpful.. Room nice; but could use some greenery on the balcony rather than bare concrete.. We stayed 12 nights and no one cleaned our room ever? Or asked if we needed anything..We had to ask the cleaner in the hallway for necessities...and emptied our own bin to the basement. The bedding was changed; after asking ; just once in this whole time?

Walking distance to shops, restaurants, esplande. But away from the busiest, private, quiet hotel.

Located on main road. Check out closes at 5pm but instructions were given for after hours checkin. Underground carpark has limited parking. Not luxurious but a bed for the night. Reception staff very pleasant when checking out.

Hi Simon Thank your for the feedback in regard to your stay. We are very proud of our customer service. Due to COVID we are a driving market. QLD is on the move, which is fantastic for all of us in QLD. As they are driving our carpark is getting full from time to time. I can understand your frustration. We are advising guests on our websites that carpark is on availability. Kind regards Clare

Hi CJ, We are sorry to hear of your negative experience with other guests making noise during the night. For future stays, we do have an on-site manager during the night who addresses any problems with other guests and noise complaints. We offer room servicing for stays longer than 7 days, however for shorter stays we do replace all amenities on request. We hope to welcome you back in the future and turn your negative experience around.
