Dear [QT Hotel Management / Customer Service], I am writing to formally express my complete dissatisfaction with my recent stay at QT and to request a full refund. We travelled from Melbourne and specifically chose this hotel for its advertised balcony and view. Upon arrival, we were informed that the balcony doors could not be opened—this was not mentioned anywhere in the listing. I have a diagnosed lung condition and require access to fresh air. Had this restriction been disclosed in the advertisement, we would have opted for an Airbnb or another accommodation that allowed open windows or outdoor access. Furthermore, when we returned to the hotel late on Sunday night, we found a notice on our door stating that guests would not be allowed to exit the building between 7:30am and 9:30am due to planned works. This was clearly not a last-minute development and should have been disclosed at the time of booking. We had planned to sleep in before our flight, but were forced to leave the hotel earlier than necessary due to this significant and avoidable inconvenience. To make matters worse, we experienced food poisoning twice after consuming meals from your in-house restaurant, further ruining what was meant to be a relaxing stay. Given the misleading nature of the booking advertisement, the unacceptable disruption to our plans, and the serious health issues we encountered, I am requesting a full refund.

Fundamental Flaws in Bathroom Design

Would’ve been a nice stay except for: 1. Shower was way too small for a doorless design. To prevent water spilling outside the shower cubicle, I had to go very close to the faucet - hit the tapware & had a deep cut on my forehead. Reported to front desk but didn’t receive any acknowledgment 2. The bathroom washbasin was too short for the inverted U-shaped tap, exacerbated by the shelf just above the basin 3. Our booking entitled us to 2 complimentary drinks but we had to ask for the vouchers after checking in

Beautiful property, exceptional service! A few minor issues with some of the bath towels old and ratty, the shower screen coming off at the base. No soap for the bath. But overall an awesome stay in an awesome room. Room service was exceptional as were the front desk staff.

Pleasant short stay

Stayed overnight for a business trip to Gold Coast, and it was overall a good stay. The (buffet) breakfast experience was not the best I have had - some items ran out and there was a queue for the coffee machine :-) All in all minor and a pleasant stay overall

This was the second room we booked but for 5 nights for my parents. Same issue as us, paid extra for a balcony/ocean view room but had access cut off for ‘scheduled maintenance’ yet we couldn’t use it?! Really disappointing. We shouldn’t have been charged extra for our 2 rooms when we couldn’t utilise our balconies and ocean views.

Amazing room, poor experience

The room was gorgeous, but all the balconies were closed. We were not offered compensation for this or notified about it in advance. We would have cancelled our stay if we had known. After complaining, we got a buffet breakfast, but we had specifically booked a suite so we could sit on the balcony enjoying a glass of champagne to celebrate our anniversary, and so we had space to have a nice room service breakfast at a table so that we didn't have to brave the mother's day crowd at a cafe. As well, someone had left our fridge open so the fridge was room temp when we got there. It was really disappointing. Our 4th stay at QT, and probably our last.

Stunning property- we were just really disappointed to get woken up at 8am on departure day to check if we’d used the minibar… checkout is 11am and we’re sleeping in bc we were kid free…! Also really disappointed to pay significantly more for 2 ocean view rooms to have them block access to our balconies due to scheduled maintenance. I don’t think it’s ethical to charge so much when we were unable to use our balconies or get fresh air into our rooms. Great location, great team, just really disappointed with being woken up and also not being able to utilise the balcony which was why we paid the extra.
