"A fantastic place for a winter break, Superb location right in the heart of the hospitality district. The light rail service was excellent and cheap. My only gripe was that the heat pump in the bedroom didn't give out hot air (and yes, I did have it set to heat!) and it got quite chilly in the evenings. Other than that, outstanding!"

"This was second time staying. Location is convenient, rooms were clean, staff friendly. There was some works being carried out that resulted in excessive jackhammer noise that almost prevented use of the room during the times the work was conducted due to noise. Other than that it was an enjoyable stay. Only other comment is to possibly expand the buffet selection for breakfast specifically with hot foods. would recommend and would stay again but might not take in the breakfast"

How can I get cheap hotels in Gold Coast?

Best tips to find a cheap hotel in Gold Coast

  1. If you're looking to travel to Gold Coast on a budget, you'll be happy to know that you can find hotels for as low as $51. Of course, that price is affected by amenities, star rating, and even the time of year you visit. At most, hotel prices can be as high as $114. Staying a short amount of time in Gold Coast is an effective way to reduce hotel costs.

  2. When you cut your vacation down to just a few days, you don't have to worry as much about hotel prices since you don't have that many nights to stay. For budget hotels in Gold Coast, 3 to 4 days should be all the nights you need. That's generally enough to enjoy the city's top attractions, though there's certainly enough to do to warrant a week-long trip.

  3. When booking cheap hotel rooms in Gold Coast, it's typically best to book about 3 weeks in advance. Book further in advance than that and you could be paying too much for your room, as hotels will often overestimate future demand. However, if you wait too long, you might find that the hotel has been completely booked.

  4. When you utilize search filters on Expedia, you'll be able to narrow down your results in a flash. These search filters cover a wide variety of factors you may be interested in when it comes to finding a cheap hotel in Gold Coast, including amenities such as Free Breakfast, 2-star rating, or proximity to local attractions. You can even set filters for price limits to ensure that all the displayed results are within your budget.
