Kitchen pots (large pot and frypan) are of a low quality, frypan no longer non stick and large pot to cook pasta could not be bought to boil. Cutting knives should be sharper. Bedroom with two single beds was full of moths (30+) took quite some time to get them outside. Location is great and the view excellent. Apartment is a good size.

As we booked at the last minute in school holidays and there were only two of us, we had to take a 2-bedroom apartment. It was very spacious and well-appointed though more than we needed for 1 night. The downside was there was no lift so we had to carry our luggage up a flight of stairs from the carpark. But there was access to the main hotel and pool area through a gate in the back garden.

Thank you for your lovely review and thank you for being a valued ALL Accor Silver member. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the spacious, well-appointed apartment and the convenient access to our pool area. We understand that the stairs can be inconvenient when carrying luggage, particularly when arriving after a long journey. Our Garden Terrace Apartments are the only accommodation type at Mantra the Observatory without lift access. We do offer other apartment types with lift access, and we’re always happy to assist guests in finding the best option for their needs when booking. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back again soon! Warm regards, Ashleigh

We decided to book a stay half way between Sydney and Gold Coast. This apartment is so dated, tired, beds uncomfortable, TV is small, carpet is 20 years old. Couldn’t wait to leave first thing in the morning. Next time we will keep driving straight to the Gold Coast

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and thank you for being a valued ALL Accor Gold member. I’m sorry to hear that the apartment did not meet your expectations and that you found the beds uncomfortable. We understand how important a comfortable and relaxing stay is, particularly when breaking up a long journey. We appreciate your comments regarding the presentation of the apartment. While the carpet and beds are less than three years old, I’m sorry they did not provide the comfort and overall impression you were expecting. Your feedback is valuable as we continue to review the presentation and comfort of our accommodation. We regret that your stay was disappointing and appreciate you bringing your concerns to our attention. Warm regards, Ashleigh

Amber W. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

When we checked in, we were excited to stay. The building is in a great location and staff at reception were friendly and helpful. We enquired about staying an additional night, and as it was going into peak rates, we knew the price would be more expensive, however it was almost 3 times the rate we had paid. This is one of the largest increases I have ever seen between peak and off peak at a hotel. We then proceeded to park, whilst they state a 2m height, the carpark roof is lower than this across most of the carpark, which only allowed us to open our boot part of the way. When we arrived at our room, we saw our balcony faced the other tower, with views directly into our bedroom and lounge, and vice versa to the opposite apartments. We did not use the balcony as we had absolutely no privacy. Even when in the living area, with the blinds drawn, we still did not have privacy as they are sheer and do not block the view from neighbours. There was only a small AC in the living area, which made our sleep very uncomfortable, as was the bed. Although the apartments are spacious, I would not stay again as our overall comfort was below average standard.

Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. I’m pleased to hear you found our location convenient and our reception team friendly and helpful. I’m sorry, however, that the apartment did not meet your expectations in terms of privacy and overall comfort. You booked one of our Courtyard Tower Apartments, which are positioned within the courtyard of the property, with apartments facing each other across the central area. I appreciate that this means the outlook and level of privacy can be different from our ocean-facing accommodation, and I’m sorry this wasn’t what you had anticipated. We have noted your feedback and will reach out to the owner to discuss your recommendations. We also understand your comments regarding the additional night rate. Rates can vary depending on demand and availability, particularly as we move into peak periods, although I appreciate that the difference you experienced was substantial. Thank you again for your feedback. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and the suggestions you have provided. Warm regards, Ashleigh
