I loved that they have a mini "Big Ben" ~ it made me think "the QUEEN's LAND" (as in I was in Brisbane which is in the Aussie state called Queensland 😀. Lovely weather, 25 Celsius even though it's half way through Autumn (April). Smooth traffic.

Brisbane is amazing. A plethora of dining options, a fantastic bus and ferry system (currently A$0.50 per ride!), the zoo and glow worm caves each an hour away by car, an international airport close by, and a great massage and bath house (Soak)!

Good transport system - buses, trains and cats. Several good parks to walk around. 2 art galleries and a museum. The South Bank leisure area. Only issue for us was the crowds due to school holidays in December and January.

Brisbane is a dead easy city to get around. The CBD and southbank are easily walkable. The rail network from the airport is great. Like most big cities, traffic is a nightmare - so avoid driving!

Brisbane is a great city for tourists with cheap transport and free outdoor entertainment options in South Bank. It was easy to get to Australia Zoo and the airport.
"We liked the location, comfortable room. Not a view from our room.
The rooftop breakfast option was superb, as was the food.
We will go there again. "
"The Restaurant Food was very enjoyable.5* for the Savoury Mince at Breakfast. The Prawn Linguini was very nice - a little oily but will be back for another serve.
A relaxed atmosphere and tremendous staff.
My room rather small had all the comforts found in hotel rooms. Small fridge was OK except full of minibar items which I never use in any hotel.Little tubs of milk are of a bygone era. There are better options. Very clean room, bed and pillows very comfortable. Enjoyed nice hot showers."
"The ladies in The Lab were amazing such wonderful service and very professional our Breakfast was delicious. And the staff on the desk so friendly and helpful."
"What a great place to stay 10 out of 10. The quality of the finish to the rooms and buildings were unreal. Would love to go back in summer and try the pools out. Very impressed "
"So handy to everything. Staff were very welcoming. Quirky little bar and reception. Breakfast was included and we paid $1 for parking. Great option for a nights stay! "
