  • Magnificent 360 degree views of the Coast, Surfers Paradise and the Hinterland. Nothing more to add!  more »
  • Well worth a visit , we saw it on the tv show Travel Guides.We were not brave enough to do the climb but watched others.If you have a gold Entertainment card,you get a discount.  more »
  • Went up last Thursday, and was a little disappointed. The view was good, but for 25$ (sorta Eiffel Tower prices) you expect a little more. We went at dusk so we got to see it during the light and dark...  more »

  • An absolute MUST for anybody visiting the area, and an ever better spot to get your bearings! I bought the $36 annual membership and I highly recommend it, because it gets you unlimited entries (at any time of day) plus discounts in the cafe/restaurant as well as entry to the various live music events (which I haven't seen yet but am intending to). Make it your first stop on arriving (with the gorgeous beaches of course).
  • As a tourist in this city, this observation deck has been part of our "must see" list. And it was a great experience. The food served to our group was excellent, the deck is amazing. And the high speed elevator.... ⚡️💨
  • Views spectacular!! Sat to have a meal of wedges which I thought was reasonable and delicious. The milkshake was $8 which I thought a little steep but it was nice. However was deeply unhappy with the hot choclates and coffee. They were $5 each but came in a tacky little paper cup. Seriously people. If I'm dining I want a mug. Paper cups, what a disgrace.
  • Great attraction if you get tickets included with something else (I certainly wouldn't pay $25). Amazing views obviously, and lots of informative displays without it having a museum feel to it. The building is starting to date and lose some of its glamour.
  • We came over easter. We didn't have to wait long and the views are spectacular. Definitely worth checking out. Nice cafe up the top for coffee if desired.
