We stay up here at the same time every year for the last three years. And love it every time!! Location - right next door to St Bernard's, so you can always get a decent steak, and some plonk from bottle shop, and get to cuddle a gorgeous St. Bernard!! What more can you ask for! Try and get a room on the second floor to really enjoy the view. There's nothing like waking up and looking out to the dewy beauty of mount tamborine, makes that deadly drive totally worth it Oh and did I mention HEATED BLANKETS!! The couple who run it are lovely, approachable and friendly, and will go the extra mile to make your stay comfortable, There's a pool, but man. It's so cold up there that the only people who swim are drunks bomb diving at 3am on a dare :)

After a long day of driving and exploring nature, we decided to wet our whistles and stop at this…read morespecial place. It's a hotel that reminded me of Germany from the parking lot side. Inside you quickly see the namesake St Bernard dogs who own the joint, which their own room and freedom to roam around. Inside it felt like a traditional British style pub with a good selection of beer and food. We only got drinks out, with the real draw being the patio out back that overlooks the mountains and valleys beyond. There were paths below and gardens with flowers too. Clearly this is the most popular area as they had lots of tables of varying sizes and many happy parties enjoying the view too. There were also many amazing birds flying around and perching on the railings. If you're nearby, this is a great spot. I'm sure it'd be fun to stay at the hotel too.

Conveniently located over the roundabout from Dreamworld. The motel is getting a little bit dated…read moreand has limited facilities in the rooms but for the price and convenience,if you are going to a night time event at Dreamworld I would highly recommend this place. They do have a Chinese restaurant located on the premises but we didn't try it out, although I have heard that its reasonably priced and good food ( will update if I try it next time). The only thing I would suggest is make sure you don't miss it when you're trying to get through the (at times) very busy roundabout. There is a sign but the driveway isn't lit up at all, so if you're getting there at night you can easily miss it and at busy times on roundabout you're trying to concentrate on traffic so it can be a little difficult to look for the sign. I would also have liked an exhaust fan in the bathroom, just my opinion but I think every toilet/bathroom needs exhaust fans. Some of the lights in the room weren't working but that can be easily fixed ( we were just too exhausted to care). If you are looking for convenience, budget friendly accommodation and don't really care about anything but the basics then I would recommend Coomera Inn. They do have a pool but we didn't get a chance to use it. They also have a shuttle that can take you to the other theme parks for a small fee.
