Ardo was a pleasant surprise. Our corner ocean view suite was spectacular, and I would have loved to have stayed longer than just the one night. Roof top restaurant had great staff, very attentive and willing to go the extra mile.

Fantastic place to stay in Townsville. Free onsite parking and right next door to The Ville for extra dining options though the restaurants onsite are excellent. Rooms are spacious and very well appointed. Recommend spending that little more for an Ocean room so you can see the sunsets each night. Rooftop bar was a perfect spot to kick off the night before going out or for a more casual meal. Cannot recommend enough.

Beautiful venue with sensational view. Only gripe is nowhere in hotel to get coffee and only instant coffee in room. The combination is not appropriate for a hotel of this standard. Otherwise really liked it.

We absolutely loved the nice and spacious Pool at the Rooftop with a nice View of magnetic island. Initially we only wanted to stay for a night on our way to cairns but we ended up extending by one night as we really loved it. Big and spacious room, I’ve never had that much space to put things, especially in the bath room. We parked our car just outside the hotel for free. Not too much in walking distance in terms of restaurants etc which was fine for us though.

ARDO was fantastic, from the moment we walked in. The smell of Adro is absolutely beautiful, then theres the view, amazing and staff were friendly, helpful and always around to help. The room had all you needed and lots of extras too. The bed was extremely comfortable. The toiletries smell delicious, the only negative for me was the shower water pressure, such a let down for such and amazing shower room.
