Location
If you're looking for a hotel with a perfect location in Surfers Paradise, look no further than Q1 Resort and Spa. Guests have raved about the great location with nothing being too far away - including the beach, shops, restaurants and even the tram. The views from the hotel are fantastic with some lucky guests being able to take in the beautiful sea views. The convenience of having a 24/7 convenience store and bottle shop nearby has also been noted. Furthermore, the hotel is situated in a high rise, providing guests with great views of the surrounding area. With easy access to everything, including public transport, this hotel couldn't be more conveniently located.

Breakfast
When it comes to breakfast at Q1 Resort & Spa, there are mixed reviews. Some guests were not impressed with the buffet breakfast, describing it as "below average" and "extremely average." A few even recommended skipping breakfast altogether or opting for the café in the foyer instead. However, others had better experiences, calling the Q1 breakfast "amazing" and praising the great coffee available at the downstairs café. Unfortunately, some guests had trouble getting to the popular SkyPoint buffet breakfast due to the crowds and it's a shame that it couldn't be booked as part of a package deal. Overall, it seems that breakfast at Q1 Resort & Spa may be hit or miss, depending on the guest's experience and preference.

Rooms
Q1 Resort & Spa is a beautiful hotel in a great location with amazing views of both ocean and city. The rooms are spacious, well-appointed and beautifully laid out. There are different types of suites and apartments to choose from, the 3 and 4-bedroom apartments being the most spacious. The rooms are equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay including massive TVs, spacious balconies and luxurious spa bathtubs. The communal utilities in the room and the facilities throughout the hotel such as the spa are fantastic. The standard of the room is fantastic, clean and modern. Although, some guests have mentioned that the furnishings could be updated and the cleaning could be improved. The kitchen could be better stocked with sharper knives and matching plates that fit in the dishwasher. There was hardly any dishwashing liquid provided and only one dishwasher pod for a six-night stay. However, the hotel staff are accommodating, friendly and helpful which compensates for these minor issues. Overall, Q1 Resort & Spa is a great hotel for anyone visiting the area looking for beauty, comfort and luxury.

Beds
If you're looking for a comfortable place to stay, Q1 Resort & Spa has got you covered with their cozy beds. Some guests have reported uncomfortable pillows, however, most have noted that their beds were very good and comfortable. There were a few complaints about single beds joined to create doubles that were slightly uncomfortable, as well as outdated mattresses and some old, worn-out beds. Nonetheless, the majority of reviews highlighted the comfortable and luxurious sleeping arrangements that the resort had to offer.

Some guests have noticed build-up in the fridge draw or felt that the bathroom wasn't quite up to scratch. A few also mention seeing ants or other indicators of uncleanliness. However, these cases seem to be in the minority and the overall impression is still overwhelmingly positive. Don't expect to encounter any "disgraceful" bathrooms or "dirty" surfaces during your stay, as most guests report that the place is "exceptionally clean" and "well-maintained". Just be aware that cleaning supplies may not be as readily available as you'd like, so you might want to bring some of your own.
