Grand Hotel Townsville

Just off the bustle of the Palmer Street restaurant strip, all the rooms at this smart new hotel have private balconies. There’s no restaurant—but no need of one. The hotel offers a charge-back service from five local restaurants (and room service as well). As well as standard hotel rooms, you have the choice of one or two bedroom apartments, which offer an open plan kitchen and living space, separate bedroom and bathroom, and a laundry.
