Default Shear Class...............

Is the Versace Hotel on the Gold Coast

Having just spent the weekend here i'd highly recommend this hotel if anyone is thinking of treating themselves or others. It oozes of shear class and elegance without being tacky in any sort of way and the service is exceptional we found. I've posted a few pics just in case anyone is interested Believe me when i tell you it don't cost the end of the earth either as we only paid $250 / night thru Travelzoo on a room only basis (which included a free upgrade to suite level)

As you can see the length of the pool is a pitch and a put (and there's even a little beach for the kids)

I went there on honeymoon. The girl at the desk asked if I wanted the Bridal but I said, No, I'll just hang on to her hair like usual.

Still you get a lot more bang for your buck here than you did in the UK.

I normally stay at the Gold Coast International and it is bloody fantastic.

The kids love it too...

We were at that Hotel last month twas nice enough indeed but it depends on what offers are available as to what hotel you would pick i suppose .We've actually stayed in room only hotels on the G coast for up to $170 / night so if you can get Versace say for $250 on a special i'd say it would be a no brainer which one to choose
