Make the most of your stay by adding an experience to your itinerary too.
Our rooms are clean, secure and affordable, so head north and escape to destinations that are sure to promise sunny days and balmy nights.
QUEENSLAND
Winter is fast approaching... But not for tropical Queensland. While the rest of Australia hibernates, the northern parts of the sunshine state come alive... 
Winter means dry season, and for those in the know, that means the PERFECT time to visit the sometimes-sweltering state. With temperatures comparable to late Spring in Sydney or summer in Melbourne - yes, seriously - Cairns, Mission Beach or Airlie Beach make for an absolutely balmy staycation with sun, sand and highly-swimmable seas galore.

NORTHERN TERRITORY
Don't expect to be building snowmen! 
️ May-October is dry season (which means less humidity), and the perfect time to visit Northern Territory's capital. With temperatures barely dropping below 20°C by night, you'll rarely have to change out of shorts and flip flops!
