Reviews of Woodroffe Hotel
Gwen Chopard
Very convenient location with bus stops and a tram stop right down the road. We got a great corner room with good views. It was less than a kilometre to the start line for the Gold Coast Marathon, and there're restaurants and cafes all nearby, leading to Australia Fair Mall, that has supermarkets too.

What was more concerning is that we fe...

I gave it 5 because its cheap, quiet, staff are nice, I had a low-hassle checkin & out and I got a good sleep. If you want a room you can swing a cat in though this isn't for you. If your expectations are just to have a place to crash at night it's perfectly fine.
