Hotels near Dan Gleeson Memorial Gardens in Thuringowa Central

Really loved staying here. Room was very comfortable, cleanand spacious. We had a ground floor unit with a peak of the sea. It was very central to shops and restaurants and the waterfront and amazingly quiet. No oven but the cooking facilities were great. The staff could not have been more helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

We had four bookings on the Friday evening, we arrived at 1:15pm, one rooms wasn’t clean which was okay as Check-In was 2pm. When I arrived back to the hotel a little after 3pm with my keys to the room, I went up and the room had not been cleaned. I went down to reception they did apologise and gave me another room key. A few staff members had called in sick, which is understandable at the post-Covid times. When we got to the the room it was run down and didn’t look like the photos at all. On our check out morning, the adjacent room, had obviously checked out early with housekeeping being in the room around 8am, making all sorts of noise and speaking really loudly, too bad if you wanted a sleep in. Our other friends had some issues too. They also had a weird cemetery photograph on the wall which seemed out of place. I was really hoping this would be a new place to stay as we are frequently in Townsville, next time let’s hope Rydges isn’t fully booked so we can stay there again.

The location is right on the strand of the beach. The sunset is very beautiful at dusk. It is also very convenient to go to the coffee shop to the supermarket and walk for 10 minutes. Buy all the daily necessities and sit on the terrace to watch the sunset until dusk, which is pleasing to the eyes. As for the service, there is basically nothing except Check In. It's not like living in a hotel in the Asia-Pacific region, with five-star service In terms of price, in terms of 1000 heads, it does not include anything. It is really because there is no choice.

Very satisfied, like it very much

Just when we thought Townsville could not possibly have any more surprise offerings, we stepped into the Rambutan Resort on Flinders Street. The ground floor bar and small lobby belies what we found in arrival on the 3rd floor accommodation level. We have a relaxed Italian restaurant - Armati’s, fabulous bar, rooftop pool, poolside cabanas encircled on 3 sides by the accommodation suites. Our room was tastefully furnished, somewhat “Hamptons style”, large comfortable beds and while the ensuite was on the small side, this was compensated with an overly generous shower - were talking 1.8m x 1m. We did hit a minor hurdle with a water leak from a pipe in the bathroom ceiling, however management were prompt and efficient in their response and you could not really hope for more. The only concern is that with it’s own pool, bar and restaurant at your door - I mean really at your door- you might have no reason to leave and find you’ve missed out on some of the sights of Townsville. And Townsville really has a lot to offer. However this is now certainly my go to accommodation in Townsville.

On the spur of the moment we decided to stay overnight in Townsville. We looked at many places but really wanted something on The Strand with some views. We decided to check out Waters Edge on the Strand. Went in to see what was available and the lovely Michelle was happy to let me check the 1 bedroom unit out before we committed. It was pretty good but no balcony. Michelle had a studio up on the next level with a balcony but it overlooked the pool so we opted for the first choice. Honestly, the major appeal in choosing to stay was how fabulous, friendly and helpful Michelle was! The unit was nice, although a tad dated. It was obvious there had been some upgrades. The bed was comfortable and having a kitchen, washing machine and dryer was a plus. We enjoyed our stay so much we extended a 2nd night. Only minuses was no balcony, no washing powder and it was very bright at night with light coming through the curtains and the bedroom binds. Pluses - spacious, comfortable, clean, well equipped, central, secure parking and great views. Photos online were accurate so you know what to expect. Would definitely stay again although a higher floor with balcony would be better and also block some of the street light brightness.

If you are here in Townsville, choose this one, don’t hesitate, because this one has a fully functioning air conditioner. If there is no air conditioner in Townsville, or the temperature of the air conditioner is locked, it will keep you all night. Can't sleep at night. The girl at the front desk was very enthusiastic.

We had a couple of nights in Townsville and this hotel was a good location to easily walk around the sites of the city. We arrived early to check in, rooms not ready but were happy to store our luggage while we went out for lunch. Staff very pleasant at check in - but as seems the norm questions asked about if it was our first time in Townsville (and it was) and if we needed directions, information etc. Rooms clean & tidy, sufficient toiletries, view from tiny balcony over side street. Lounge chair very low to ground and very uncomfortable. Bed very comfortable. Wifi very fast. Hotel located within walking distance of most of the sites of Townsville. No breakfast supplied but restaurants in close proximity.

My father and I stayed here on the Anzac day weekend as we flew in to see the Cowboys game - the stadium is a stones throw away, so this is in a great location. A change in our original flight schedule saw us arrive in Townsville a couple hours earlier than originally anticipated, and we were lucky enough for our room to be ready to access then. Basic, affordable accommodation, with friendly staff, the Palmer Collective is a great choice in Townsville. In fact, I've stayed here on 3 of my 4 Townsville visits (the other 2 under it's former names of Ibis and Townsville Central). This will be my first choice when I return to Townsville next
