Stamford Plaza Brisbane

Felt a little like a hotel living off it's past glories, probably quite exclusive with full amenities but looking a bit old and tired and in need of a refurb. This was booked for us by a travel agent so didn't compare prices elsewhere, also we were only stopping over but wouldn't have been happy if we were staying longer. In total we stayed three nights. Quick pointer|: Gym is small but pretty well equipped Pool and jacuzzi is a bit tired but large enough Breakfast is not very good, usual fare but... Coffees bad, bircher too sweet, eggs on platter looked like they had been there a while, pastries reheated from frozen and not good... I could go on but you get the picture. Even the outside seating area felt old and unclean, they use it for the restaurant in the evenings too. Felt understaffed too, lots of dirty tables and one poor waiter running around trying to do everything. Rooms are old, a bit dusty, and definitely in need of a refurb. The view is pretty spectacular though. Reception service felt, with some people, a bit too abrupt at times. Again I haven't checked other hotel prices but a quick check on the Stamfords website said around 200AUS per room per night and as we had two rooms this was costing us 400 AUS plus 28AUS for breakfast so just over 500AUS per night which didn't feel like value to me.

We booked a Storey Bridge Suite and it was sensational. Lovely suite, awesome view

The breakfast is advertised as going till 10am and we were there at 9am. Had to ask for several food items to be replenished.

Nothing i paid for the grand plaza suite and didnt get my room

I didnt get too stay

Excellent place,
