Our stay was pretty good, we were upgraded to a premium room as it was my partners 30th birthday. The room was very clean and comfy and had everything we needed. Breakfast was good with many options but did not vary from day to day. Unfortunately despite saying the rooms were sound proof we were between the lifts and a room with two crying babies which kept us awake a few nights. They were also painting the floor we were staying on and one night we returned to the room to find it stunk of paint fumes and the windows did not open to air out the room. Parking was also quite expensive.

Great location, but the room was terrible. The soundproofing is awful, I had a neighbour come back at 3am and could hear every word of her hour-long phone conversation. I could also hear people in the hall constantly and upstairs. The temperature control didn't work either. The staff are nice, view was lovely, and it was a clean hotel. But the noise really ruined the experience.

Too crowded at breakfast restaurant. No cutlery until asked for it and no much variety of food. Room conditions is good but hard to differentiate hot and cold taps. Chargrilled restaurant service is poor. Food is not hot / warm and needs improvement on taste. Hotel receptionists are polite and welcoming.

I had a pleasant stay at Voco Gold Coast. One thing I wasn’t aware of beforehand was the AUD 350 security deposit, which would have been helpful to know in advance. That aside, the complimentary breakfast was excellent, the staff were very friendly, and the location—right at the Surfers Paradise Tram Stop—made it incredibly convenient to explore all the sights and sounds of the Gold Coast.
