The Prince of Wales

What an experience !! The advertisement was totally misleading . 1 - No restaurant. We were told the roof had fallen in . We commiserated with the manager only to be told by locals that food hadn’t be available for 7 years !! 2 - The rooms were spacious but 1 night was enough. 3- The kitchen for guest use was disgusting 4- Bathroom facilities were on par with a poor caravan park quite a trek down an uneven hallway. We escaped at first light to wait for our train and find coffee and food. The lovely people of Proserpine were very apologetic for this hotel and described it as an embarrassment, dodgy, a dump, a dive and the Dero pub where no one goes to. The town has the potential to be a beautiful art deco town . The hotel could be beautiful if renovated but we were told that it has been sold many times and it has deteriorated each time .

I booked the Prince of Wales for three nights for my son to stay. He was very disappointed with the stay because there was a child staying that cried day and night. We assumed being a pub/hotel that it would be a child free zone. Unfortunately this was not the case as he had a terrible sleep each day.
