Recent Reviews in Shaw

Hotel Grand Chancellor Townsville

10/10 Excellent

"Great view from floor 18. Food was nice."

Amaroo Rainforest Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Resort was designed fantastically with salt pool, function room, tennis courts, manucured gardens with water featers, gazebos, viewing areas, nice grassed spaces. Beautiful location on side of a hill with views and bus stop right out front, but beware it is a slight walk from the wharf. Slightly past it's prime but the bones are solid and rooms at amaroo newly refurbished which means you get all the benefit for great price. Small downside is as the resort rooms are privately owned there is no resort/Amaroo reception. Amaroo is one operator of rooms within the resort but you won't check in with a person or have anywhere to securely leave your bags on your first or last day if that's an issue. Otherwise fantastic experience and would return."

Aquarius on the Beach

8/10 Good

"We stay here as it is the most reasonably priced hotel in Townsville when we go to the rugby league. It is about a 20 minute walk from the stadium which suits us. There are plenty of dining and breaky options nearby. Have been a few rooms and the beds are not always up to standard - some are and others aren't."

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Shaw?

The best time to visit Shaw is during the dry season, which runs from May to October.

During these months, you'll experience consistently sunny days with comfortable temperatures, typically ranging from 20 to 30 degrees Celsius. This period avoids the humidity and higher rainfall of the wet season, making it ideal for outdoor activities like exploring the coastline or enjoying the Shaw River.

Couples often find this time great for a relaxing getaway. The pleasant weather allows for leisurely strolls along the beaches, dining outdoors, and participating in boat trips or other water-based excursions without the disruption of heavy rain.

Families also benefit greatly from visiting during the dry season.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline − this is often within 24 to 48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our 'Fully refundable property' filter during your search to find the right Shaw hotel for you.
