Can’t disagree with all the positive comments preceding; clean cheap etc. Perfect for what we wanted, attending a friend’s birthday party and this was within walking distance. Big positives for motel of this cost was free Wi-Fi and a number of free Foxtel channels. However a few words of caution, whilst clean and tidy a number of items were in... More

Stayed for 2 nights as a stopover on the way to Bribie Island. Disappointed room not ready at appointed check in time after long hot drive. Managers very nice and friendly. Room dark and small. Very basically equipped with jug and fridge. Out of the hustle and bustle of Surfers but short drive only to all attractions of Gold Coast.... More

Great value $120 a night. Could not have asked for better service. Thanks Billy. The only thing is the curtain... More

We arrived here late on a very rainy night after checking out of a filthy motel in Palm Beach. The gentleman was very helpful late at night - The room was average and the vents in the bathroom need a good clean as do the carpets - overall good place for a stopover. Cheers

Positive: Mermaid Beach is a nice Gold Coast location for a quieter holiday, being a little out of the main action but still a short bus ride or slightly longer walk to Broad Beach of Surfers. This motel is about five minutes walk from any shops or eating places, but these include convenience stores, several restaurants and bars. For groceries... More

Our second stay at the Classic Motel was just as good as the first. As I don't drive, a full day on the Goldy plus the hike to & from the Sunshine Coast is a bit much so this is perfect for when we need a bed whilst going down to the theme parks etc. The staff were very accommodating... More

My family and I stayed at Classic Motel for 3 nights during the school holidays. We stayed in a spotless family room. The hosts greated us warmly and when we came to the room the hostess had already been there to turn on the lights and put milk in the fridge for us. Whatever we asked for was provided to... More

We only stayed here, Family Suite room, one night as we decided to stay an extra night and the hotel we were staying on, had no rooms available. And we don't regret. It was 3 of us, adults, and it only cost us $150 on December 27th. Considered high season in Gold Coast. Only a short drive from Surfers Paradise... More
