The hype
Guests love the massive rooms and convenience of the shops downstairs, but often complain about the rock-hard beds.
Meriton Suites Southport
$150-280 / رات
یہ بک کریں اگر You want a high-rise apartment with a full kitchen and laundry, away from the chaotic noise of Surfers Paradise but still connected by tram.
لوگ اسے کیوں پسند کرتے ہیں
- Incredible floor-to-ceiling views (rooms start on level 25)
- Woolworths supermarket and tram stop directly downstairs
- Resort-style indoor and outdoor pools that are actually heated
فوری جائزہ: It’s a polished, reliable skyscraper that feels more like a high-end residence than a hotel—perfect for families, but lacks the 'holiday vibe' of a beachfront resort.
@Wandering_Ren نے جائزہ دیا: I honestly didn't expect the view to be this massive. Opening that door and seeing the whole Gold Coast stretch out in front of me was the highlight of my trip. It felt like I was floating over the marina. Definitely ask for a high floor—it changes everything.

Reality check
The 'Ocean View' is spectacular, but if you book a 'Mini Suite,' you won't get a balcony.
- You need a full kitchen and laundry for a longer stay
- You are traveling with a family and need separate bedrooms
- You prefer the quieter, local feel of Southport over the tourist trap of Surfers

اندرونی نکات
- ✨
The 'Hinterland' view rooms get amazing sunset colors and are often quieter than the ocean-facing side.
- ✨
There is a secret pedestrian entrance from the Woolworths plaza directly into the hotel lift lobby—save time walking around the block.
- ✨
Ask for a 'high floor' specifically—rooms go up to level 55, and the view difference between 25 and 55 is massive.
جانے سے پہلے جاننے کی 5 چیزیں
💡The elevators can be slow during morning rush hour (10am checkout) because of the 55 floors.
💡The outdoor pool can get extremely windy because it's on a podium level between high-rises.
💡You have to take your own rubbish out to the chute in the hallway; housekeeping is weekly for long stays.
💡The 'Mini Suites' are basically just a hotel room—don't book them if you want the full apartment experience.
💡The tram stop 'Broadwater Parklands' is literally across the road, making a car optional.
