The hotel is in a great location. Just across the road is Cavill Ave with many shops and restaurants. The beach is also just down the road.  If you are a light sleeper, don't get the room facing the main road as you can hear the traffic quite loudly. In saying that, I don't know how much better the river... More

The Vibe was central and came recommended, so my partner and I decided to stay here for 4 nights during a visit to the Gold Coast. The staff were very friendly, but we were unimpressed with the room. The decor was dated, some of the furniture was mouldy, and the bed was very hard and uncomfortable. A pool was advertised... More

The Vibe is what you would expect from you average hotel and is priced accordingly, it is nothing too fancy and although the rooms are clean they need some attention to detail and the hotel is quite old..The staff were just awesome on check in but a real let down on check out when they tried to overcharge me, overall...

Staff were pleasant and helpful, the room was reasonable quiet considering location, rooms were clean and we had plenty of room. The bed gave us a good nights sleep, and the breakfast buffet was very good for the price. Parking onsite was only $8.00 per day.
