What guests think

Across recent reviews, The Gladstone is praised for clean, renovated rooms with comfortable beds, friendly staff, and a central location near dining and the waterfront, offering good value and convenient parking for short business or stopover stays.

Some reviews note drawbacks such as occasional noise (from nearby venues or other guests), stale or earthy room odours, small fridges, and mixed pool upkeep or temperature. Dining feedback is positive on quality at the onsite Rocksalt and nearby cafes, but a few mention higher prices and inconsistent hours or breakfast availability. Overall, it suits travellers seeking a reliable base with modern comforts rather than extensive resort-style amenities.

Upon arrival i was asked for a $200 deposit, without any prior communication regarding this fee. Thankfully, after a long deliberation it was waved as I had no use for the mini bar. For four months I had been looking forward to relaxing in a bath, unfortunately, we arrived to find that the bathrooms had recently been renovated and my room no longer contained a bath. Only a shower with a half screen, so the bathroom floor floods with each shower. They don't have daily servicing and with only two towel hooks for four towels, we were trying to dry ourselves with wet towels. Our rubbish piled up and we couldn't find a rubbish shoot or spare bags to use. The beds are so soft that back pain was inevitable. And the TV screen had a blurry picture and strange colouring. The 'city view' was like overlooking slums. Special mention to the car park with open rubbish bags lying in it. The staff were lovely, the rooms were clean. The pool was freezing, but nice. I wouldn't stay there again.

Close to restaurants and supermarkets, as well as some smaller cafes, there were plenty of dining options around the hotel. There was also plenty of parking. The rooms were large and modern and very comfortable. It was good value for money considering the standard of the hotel and the location.

On check in staff member wasnt very pleasant. Asked if she chose savings for my deposit. She was stared and said yes after her pause. Popped pin in to see i had a surcharge. She chose credit, not savings. Wasnt friendly at all. Check out was lovely. Staff memeber was friendly, warm and kind. Room advertised as City view. Overlooked a large dirty looking carpark, back of old buildings then in thw distance what they classed as city perhaps. Room was really lovely however and very clean. Alot of noise from a pub close by but settled by midnight.

Usually happy with our stays here but this time had to ask for a room change due to excessive plant noise in floors 3&4 making for unpleasant environment in the room. Staff were able to reposition us thank goodness. Otherwise room was clean albeit chairs in unit need replacing - very uncomfortable.
