I came to Townsville to relax for a few days and escape the southern winter. I chose the Aquarius vis a web search and was not disappointed. The room was clean and quite roomy for a studio room. From my balcony I had an awesome view to the sea. The hotel is close to a food and bar precinct and the beach is across the road. The staff that I engaged with were always pleasant. For me, I enjoyed my stay with no complaints. I would stay again.

We stayed on the 13th floor with absolutely stunning views, the only criticism I will say is the water pressure was very poor but I can live with that.
