Very good location, free parking

Very convenient location, shops are in walking distances and close to the airport. The A/C unit in the room was quite old and struggling to reduce room temperature. The water pressure in the shower was quite low, they may need to look into it and fix. Breakfast may not be available on public holidays.

Clean and tidy accommodation with all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The staff were very helpful and polite. Only downfall was the on-site car parking. It was difficult to park a larger car in the allotted spaces available. Appart from this, my family and I found the Clarion to be a great place to stay in Townsville.

The location was great, staff very friendly, however the bath was dirty (had a black ring around it) the shower gel container was empty, the basin was dirty and there was only one bath towel for 2 people. The bed was extremely soft so we both woke up with sore backs.

There was noone at reception when I arrived at 1630hrs had to wait while there were no other guests except me on a friday. The staff was unwelcoming and rudely declined my request for a late check out stating we are not a fancy hotel where these options are available. Secondly the bathroom was poorly designed as it sipped water into the attached toilet area. There isn’t adequate parking available for a medium sized suv.

We were disappointed that the Greek Restaurant was closed for refurbishment - which was the only reason we stayed here rather than down the road. Knowing that it is now going to be an Italian smorgasboard style place - we won't be back. The parking area was too small for the size of cars in the area.

Nice old brutalist design on the building, and nice sized room for the price. Room smelled strongly of mildew and appeared to have been covered up by heavy cleaning products.

Solo visit

Arrived early and was checked in straight away. Given a good overview of hotel services as well as advice on local attractions and services. Room service was exceptional and they confirmed with me for any concerns. There were none. I liked the direct line to the Taxi's and they were a very prompt service. I offered suggestions when checking out and they were noted... Not merely acknowledged

Nice central comfortable hotel

We stayed for one night and were pleased with the location, amenities and nice friendly service. The room was well set up with a foyer area that had a pod coffee machine and sink. The aircon worked well, there was a large TV, and free Internet. The beds were very comfy and overall it was spacious. They do need to improve the lighting tho, it was very gloomy in the main living area over the table and desk. There was good lighting at bedside but even a free standing lamp with bright LED bulbs would fix it for the rest of the room.

How can I NOT help you ?

This place is one step above youth hostel. The man at the reception in the evening was the worst employee and should be let go. How can I NOT help you? Should be on his calling card. He actually seemed annoyed that he had to look up from his phone. Please note there were no hairdryers in the rooms or to borrow from the front desk.
