We arrived at the Brisbane airport which is over an hour’s drive to gold cost and reached the Mariott around 5pm in the evening. The check-in was friendly and quick and our room on the 15th floor(1502) was well appointed with serene hinterland views. The lobby was welcoming and the rooms (done in whites) are a good size with comfortable... More

We booked a stay on the Marriott for 3 night s at the end of a 2 week holiday on the Gold Coast with 2 teenage children. This was the luxury end to our holiday. The big attraction was the pool - it sounded awesome and our teenages are water babes so we hoped it would live up to expectations.... More

It would be all but impossible to find a fault with this magnificent 5 star accommodation. The accommodation, the service, the grounds, the ambience, the restaurants were all excellent. We don't travel to the Gold Coast all that often however when we do visit, we know where we will be staying. More

We recently stayed here for a wedding and had a really good time. The function room was beautiful! We had a nice room overlooking the beach which was lovely. I was disappointed we didn't get a room on a higher floor as I had requested it. The room was spacious and clean. The decor in the foyer was lovely and... More

To be able to stay at a 5 star resort for about $140 a night is pretty amazing. The rooms, while they look a little old and dated, they were clean and they looked pretty cool. We were given a corner room, with "ocean views"... Yes, we could see the ocean, but it wasn't anything spectacular as it is obstructed... More

Very average dated Marriott, but quiet still good. You'll love the size of the rooms. But have to wait for cleaning a few times (even at 4pm), thin walls - we are listening the hot bed action in the middle of one day :) 10 min to the SP center. SPA was TERRIBLE! The worst service ever - don't try... More

Hadn't stayed at the Marriott Surfers for many years but had fond memories of our previous visit. Whilst the 'waving fans' have now been replaced the refurb of the hotel is fantastic! We were upgraded to an ocean view room and whilst it was a standartd room there really wasn't anything standard about it! I will look forward to another... More
