We had a lovely stay at the Aquarius and the view from our room was breathtaking although we felt the hotel room looked a little tired. Staff were friendly and accomodating.

Fantastic hotel. Great location next to the Casino. Good dining options, rooms are extremely well appointed for business and pleasure. As someone who travels frequently for work, this is the best Property option in Townsville - only one of its calibre.
