The Langham, Gold Coast and Jewel Residences

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful room extremely comfortable, the best part of the experience with a magic sea view and enclosed balcony. Good location opposite the beach and close to a light rail station. Very nice breakfast. Cathy at breakfast is outstanding. Dinner menu limited but the steak was excellent"
