For many people, Gladstone is an industrial city and bypassed by many tourists, but for those in the know, Gladstone is at the center of a fantastic tourist region. Much of Gladstone's accommodation caters to the corporate sector as many large industrial corporations are based here and Gladstones port is the most important in Central Queensland. For this region, tourist should book early as the corporate accommodation quicly becomes booked out. Many mines also surround the gladstone district and mine workers often come to gladstone on their days off.
Gladstone's city region is where you will find most of its accommodation. There is a wide range of hotel and motel rooms to choose from.

Both lanch and helicopter transfers are available to access Heron Island.
For those tourist travelling along the Queensland coast, Gladstone is one of the best places to find excellent accommodation.
