Direct Hotels – Islington at Central, Townsville

We really enjoyed our stay. The facilities were good and the staff friendly. The carpet had lots of stains on it but apart from that it was clean and tidy and perfect for our needs. The outlook will be much better when the surrounding construction is complete. We had a 3 bedroom apartment which had spacious and comfortable beds. The living space and outdoor area was a great indoor outdoor feel. Just check arrival instructions if out of hours arrival.

Overall, wouldn't recommend. 2 bedroom apartment for four adults only has one room key and one car space. For the price of the room, much better value can be found elsewhere

We took my daughter away for her birthday with her 3 little uns & brother. The 3bedroom unit was quite spacious and we could lock them out of our room so we got a wee sleep in :) Great bbq area and pool. Balcony is a great size also. Apartments are a little tired but still in great condition and was perfect seeing we had little uns running around with us. Even had a washing machine which is great with a young family. Really enjoyed our time here. Very close to restaurants etc too but we just used the fully self-contained apartment and then the bbq area which was so spacious. Will be back again!!

This was a great place to stay, rooms very spacious, clean, quiet. Would stay there again if in the area.

Lovely top floor room with two bedrooms close to all attractions however the ironing board could do with an upgrade and more cable channels but overall very nice

Convenient and close to anything worth doing in Townsville - give it a go!!

The apartments are in a great location within walking distance of the centre of Townsville and dining options. The Old Railway cafe downstairs makes amazing coffee and breakfasts. Give them a try. The apartment we stayed in was clean and spacious for 2 guests, with no discernible noise from neighbours. The pool was refreshing after the heat and humidity of the location. For those staying and self catering, implements are sufficient, although I was unable to get the oven working. The wifi was intermittent, as was 4G and there is a download and device limit. Please note, there is no apartment servicing for stays less than 8 days, so you may need additional laundry and dishwashing liquids. Also, instructions for rubbish disposal would be useful for guests. Upon request, you can get additional towels. Reception is not open 24x7, however the staff were most accommodating and helpful.

Rooms v clean and spacious apartment

Really good overall, just a few cockroaches in the dishwasher but no other issues with the resost of our experience. Lovely staff at the front desk!
