Comfort Inn Big Windmill
If you’re a tourist visiting the Coffs Harbour region for the first time, be sure to stay at the iconic Comfort Inn Big Windmill. Just because you’re in Coffs Harbour for touch football doesn’t mean it has to be strictly business. The Comfort Inn Big Windmill is literally packed to the brim with interesting activities that you can do during your stay. Choose to spend your time doing laps of the crystal clear 15 metre swimming pool, take a short walk to a nearby beach or talk to the friendly staff who are happy to help you organise sailing, sightseeing and snorkelling adventures. Can’t be stuffed going out for dinner? The German inspired Edelweiss Bavarian Restaurant is located inside the hotel, so you can indulge in some traditional German a la carte cuisine just a few steps from your room. Wash it all down with an imported German brewski for the perfect end to a stressful day of cheering on your nation.

Sawtell Hotel
What better way to mingle with locals and fellow supporters by getting together over a good wholesome meal and a couple of cold tap beers? Located just a short drive south of where the Touch World Cup is taking place, there are bound to be plenty of people heading to the Sawtell Hotel after the day’s play. Perhaps you haven’t had enough sporting action for one day? Bring a couple of mates down to enjoy some more live sport on the big screen TVs, which include a TAB so you can have a little punt as well (gambling responsibly of course). If you’re travelling with the kids, book into the family friendly Fishtales Restaurant, located inside the Sawtell Hotel, for some scrumptious fresh seafood, alfresco style. With a laid-back atmosphere and friendly staff you can’t go wrong if you choose to spend the night at the Sawtell Hotel.
