Why are serviced apartments better for business travellers?
At Quest, we know that travelling for work purposes can be stressful. That’s why we always strive to meet all our business travellers’ needs. Our serviced apartments offer more space, improved facilities and friendly service to help you feel as comfortable as possible during your time away from home.
Serviced apartments typically offer more space than hotels or motels, with separate living, dining and sleeping areas, fully-equipped kitchens, and laundry facilities. These features, unique to serviced apartments, allow you to cook your own meals, do your own laundry, and work and relax with plenty of space.
We also offer regular housekeeping, valet laundry and dry cleaning services, local restaurant chargeback arrangements, a pantry shopping service, and a babysitting booking service. This way, if you’re busy with work commitments, you can depend on us to help you out with these everyday errands.

Does Quest charge an online booking fee?
No. Quest does not charge an online booking fee for bookings made directly with a property through the Quest website.
Quest properties are owned and operated by franchisees who are dedicated to making your stay hassle-free. A big part of this is ensuring that you deal with real people! Sometimes it will be the franchisees themselves; otherwise, their team of reception staff will be pleased to help you over the phone and throughout your stay.
In addition to reception, an on-site manager is available to ensure the security of all guests and to attend to any urgent after hours enquiries you might have.
Do I need a credit card to make a booking?
Yes. To confirm your booking, we ask that you provide the details of a valid credit card or make a cash deposit equal to the first night’s accommodation, approximately ten days prior to arrival.
Variations to this may apply during peak periods and at the property's discretion.
What is Quest’s cancellation policy?
A cancellation fee of one night's accommodation will apply to any booking cancelled within 24 hours of the arrival time. If no arrival time is specified, 2pm will be considered the arrival time. Cancellation fees will automatically be charged to the credit card provided, or deducted from the reservation deposit.
Any Quest property may alter these terms and conditions for specific bookings and advise the alternate terms and conditions that will apply.
Can I earn Qantas Frequent Flyer (QFF) points?
