Lovely big rooms, well equipped, nice new pool and spa area. Great for families. Perfect location for town, main Mt Beach, Piolet Bay and at least 10 cafes and restaurants under the Towers. Easy underground car park.

Hotel Armitage and Conference Centre
Second time stayed here due to great location. Room is awesome, they kept it tidy and pleasant to stay. Unsure how long the elevator/lift renovation will finish but prepare to use the stairs temporarily or by conference area where the lift is located. Otherwise, stay was great.
