Peppers Gladstone
Rooftop pool and five-star comfort near the marina
About this stay
Peppers Gladstone is the clearest five-star option on the Central Queensland coast around Gladstone, built for couples and families who want resort-style comfort rather than a purely functional stopover. The rooftop pool and pool bar anchor the property, backed by a lush garden, a fitness room and a family-friendly restaurant serving international cuisine with an American buffet breakfast. Rooms add kitchenettes, bathrobes, free toiletries and minibars, with soundproofing that matters in a working port city. At 4.6 kilometres from Gladstone Marina and 6 kilometres from Gladstone Airport, it sits a short drive from the water rather than directly on it, trading a harbour-front walk for genuine resort amenities most other Gladstone properties simply do not offer.

Our take
Suits couples and families who want a proper resort stay rather than a road-trip stopover, with the rooftop pool and fitness room doing the heaviest lifting. The 24-hour front desk covers late flights into Gladstone Airport well. Travellers who want to walk straight to the harbour without a short drive should look at a CBD hotel instead, since Peppers trades that immediate proximity for a genuinely five-star property.
- ✓Book well ahead, this is the only five-star property in Gladstone and rooms fill faster than the wider city hotel stock.
- ✓Take advantage of the rooftop pool bar for a drink without leaving the pool deck on a warm Central Queensland evening.
- ✓Use the 24-hour front desk for a late flight into Gladstone Airport, six kilometres away, rather than a stricter check-in elsewhere.
Why we love it

Why guests love itPeppers Gladstone is the city's five-star property, built around a rooftop pool, a lush garden and a family-friendly restaurant. Rooms have air conditioning, kitchenettes, bathrobes and minibars, and there is a fitness room and a 24-hour front desk. It is 4.6 kilometres from Gladstone Marina and 6 kilometres from the airport. An 8.9 score from 130 reviews is promising, and I would choose it for resort-style comfort in Gladstone.
