"We were in Townsville for 3 nights to attend a rugby league game at Queensland Country Bank Stadium. We had flown to Townsville and so intended to walk or catch local buses for any sightseeing. This proved a great choice as we could walk to Sealink Ferry terminal to catch the ferry to Magnetic Island and walk to the Stadium. We were across the road from the North Queensland Museum and a short walk over the bridge to the Maritime museum. The information centre is about a 10 min walk along Flinders street and the volunteers were very obliging with bus route maps and suggestions for things to do in the area. Rambutan rooftop bar has great options for dining at night at reasonable prices. Through the week the area seems very quiet as there are a lot of unoccupied buildings from the 1920's - 1940's, Friday and Saturday nights are very busy as some of these buildings now house nightclubs etc. There was a bit of noise on the Friday we stayed but it did not worry us. The main shopping centre is about 25min away by bus. The staff at Rambutan were very obliging and I would definitely stay here if I was in Townsville to attend an event at the Stadium."

"The rooms are excellent . Great service and views from the rooftop bar. Would recommend Ardo for anyone wanting a relaxing stay"

"The pool was lovely, and the breakfast was delicious. "

"Very easy walk from the units to the beach. Loved the walk to the helipad where we feed to rock wallabies each morning. Easy walk to a lovely restaurant, general store and bottleo"

"Good value for money & location. The complex is looking a little tired & could definitely be cleaner, but we were grateful for the stay and will come again!"

"Clean and spacious rooms; good location"

"The shower drain had an issue and water would back up while showering, so I reported it to reception. They advised they would send maintenance, which they did, however they used a chemical with a very strong and unpleasant smell. I raised this again with reception and had to request that we be relocated, which was eventually arranged. I would have expected the hotel to offer a room change before carrying out maintenance, rather than us needing to ask. The breakfast was also disappointing. The quality was poor, with mostly frozen pastries and very limited variety. The cooked breakfast was overly oily and had a noticeable smell of burnt oil."

"Great location, clean and comfortable room"
