Meridian at Port Douglas

Just spent 10 nights here Pros: Pool just lovely & a good size Close to shops, beach etc A lift, very handy with luggage No kids if that’s important Good underground car park Cons: Being located at a busy T intersection,traffic noise was often an issue. Especially when trying to enjoy the day bed Poor communication prior to arrival. I was told they could not guarantee the room outlook I had booked months earlier. I was told I would receive a call, but did not. This was upsetting! When I called back again 2 days later I was told all should be ok. No water in the jug or ice cubes in fridge on arrival Very dated apartment with no style at all. Very small bedroom with virtually no storage. Just one wardrobe with hot water service taking up half of it. After 2 days we did discover a cupboard behind bathroom door. Poor WiFi so we could not use foxtel etc Our query was met with ‘yes the WiFi is poor here’ Smallest TV in bedroom located at ceiling height. Not that I really cared but what’s the point! At $450 a night I felt we could have done better and is a reminder to do my homework more…

The Meridien is well located close to Macrossan St and all the cafes and Restaurants. We had a studio on the 3 rd floor. ( elevator from lobby or undercoverparking ) kitchenette with microwave, toaster and fridge. Very neat and tidy. Swimming pools and Spa Helpful staff

The Meridian Port Douglas was one of the most comfortable places we stayed during our recent trip to Australia. A perfect location, it's near the beach and the shops and restaurants in the town. We had a one-bedroom apartment with balcony that was completely outfitted, spacious, and very comfortable. Everything we needed was available, even a washer/dryer. The proprietors were very helpful in suggesting tours and activities for us. All in all, a memorable stay.

Amazing 2 night stay! Impeccable customer service from Eloisa at Front Desk! Very welcoming Managers, Amanda & Ken & thank you to the entire HSK for a sparkling 1 bedroom apartment! Truly recommended - central location and perfect for Adults Only getaway

The Meridien was a very comfortable stay, great location and a really sizeable room. The amenity was also excellent, great pool, laundry facilities and a full kitchen setup. The apartment was great and airy, directly overlooking the pool. Points lost for the bed in 9b as it was far too soft, definitely not a hotel quality bed I believe. Very lumpy and soft, a few nights of medium quality sleep weren’t ideal but the quality of the room and facility was great. Location was ideal, walking distance to the beach and the main ***** for hotels etc and easy access to the marina!

We were allocated this hotel as part of a holiday package; we didn’t chose it. It really is an apartment rather than a hotel and was a little basic for our wants. However we were comfortable and it was adequate. The room was fine. The bed was comfortable and the facilities in the room were fine. There was a reasonable pool but no other facilities in the building, like a bar or staff to help. The best thing about the place was it’s location, close to the beach, the marina and all the shops and restaurants. It had great aircon which was much needed in the tropical climate.

Wonderful - both the apartments and the staff. We arrived very late from a long day traveling, and while reception was closed, the instructions on where to find the key and the room were perfect, along with a welcome note. We had a very early trip planned, so it wasn’t until day 3 that we met the reception staff - very friendly and helpful, reconfirming our trips and pickup for departure times without us having to ask, and then telling us about local places to visit and eat. The apartment was large and well presented, the pool is fabulous- there are laundry facilities, with power provided - perfect for us after three weeks traveling. Port Douglas is a great place to visit. Finally a call out to the manager who was called out of bed at 04:00 in the morning to tell us our taxi was delayed - and coped with two worried passengers that thought that they would miss their plane - a big thank you

Great spot for couples. Very quiet resort ( perhaps too quiet?) everything clean & comfortable. Most comfy hotel bed I’ve ever slept in! We had 2 rooms booked, both standard rooms, although 1 was slightly larger 14B & upstairs overlooking the main road, with a large walk in shower, whilst the other was smaller and 10b ( I think) with had a spa bath, overlooking the pool. The pool access rooms would have been a nice upgrade though! Staff very friendly. Great location, within easy walking distance to beach , supermarket, restaurants & marina . Plenty of parking.

Absolutely lovely place to stay in Port Douglas, only a short walk to main shops, cafes and restaurants and a short walk across the road to 4 mile Beach. I had the bottom unit which was swim out, and it's definitely worth paying a little extra for. Pool was quite warm, but not surprising for this time of the year. Beds were very comfortable and clean rooms. Staff were excellent and helpful, would definitely stay here again.
