The room was very comfortable and clean. There was a light not working in the bathroom near the makeup mirror - only mentioning for your maintenance to rectify for next guests. I love the views out to Magnetic Island and The Strand and the balcony is always a great place to relax, but the landscaping is still very disappointing. Our first stay was 12 months ago and you could see how poorly the lawn had been laid - the joins were showing and it was near dead - we put it down to being relatively new and having had a very hot summer, but considering how well done everything is the Ardo building is, it was quite a let down. It has not improved much apart from the lawn looking more established. When you arrive and see all of the dead palm trees around the entrance and on the ocean side of the building they are even worse it detracts from the overall experience. Having said that, the other landscaping around the entrance has matured well and the frangipanis are looking great in the carpark. We will definitely stay at Ardo on our next visit to Townsville, it is the best accom in the City.

Romantic Staycation

Was a very comfortable stay and perfect for a romantic staycation away from the kids. The staff were quick to assist us in any way we needed and we both felt well rested the next morning.

Had a couple of technical issues. I’m not surprised as it is a new venue running some state of the art systems. Problems happen. The staff went out of their way to assist. That is the measure of a great company. Problems could not be fixed then and there, however they made sure I was happy. Gold star.

I loved that the area was quiet & not noisy and loud like the Strand area that we also stayed. That area has hoons driving and reving their cars all night every night. I would never stay in that area again. The place was lovely and modern and had a beautiful view from the roof top swimming pool. Only two things let it down for me. The ceiling of the rooms look like they aren’t finished & the pool while so stunning looking was a bit too shallow for me. No deep area.

Great views, sitting on the balcony in the afternoon watching the boats was a highlight. The room was well appointed but a bit on the smallish size. The only other downside was the exposed concrete slab as the ceiling, make the room look like it hasn't been finished, All in all the experience was amazing
