When I got to the room it was very cold. The bathroom hot. I had to return to reception to inform them of this as they have removed the room phones and this means they could not be notified nor give room service. I have limited mobility and as there was no lift I found the whole system difficult . When I was asked if I enjoyed my stay , the next morning, I told them what had happened and the receptionist implied that she thought I was being difficult and not at all sympathetic. I hope when she is older and less able she remembers and has regrets on how she treated her guests.

A very speedy change to an accessible room on arrival which was very spacious and quiet. For us, the overnight temperature was a bit too warm, and being on the ground floor didn't feel opening a window was a sensible option! But we managed!

It was friendly with good music and nice breakfast items and menu. The bed was comfy, but my disability wasn't catered for, so my partner had to carry mobility aid upstairs and downstairs, and I struggled a bit on stairs. It was inconvenient and staff were very much in good spirits.

A plesent visit.

We both enjoyed our first visit to the kingscliff hotel, we will definitely stay there again in the near future. We must say we were disappointed with the 12 percent sir charge on our evening meal.

Everything about the Hotel was good, only one small complaint was an excellent breakfast was spoilt by terrible quality of sausages, so. bland and didn’t taste like a Pork sausage, such a small thing which can so easily be put right. Wouldn’t put me off staying there in the future, just wouldn’t order sausages. ,!!!
