Heart Hotel & Gallery

This smart hotel in the heart of Airlie couldn't be more central. Architecturally inspired by early Queensland homes, the whitewashed, fan-cooled rooms are smallish but elegant, with top-quality bedding, up-to-date tech fittings (Bose sound systems, Nespresso machines, massive flat-screen TVs) and luxurious bathrooms. The gallery, on the top floor, shows the work of local artists.
