Guest Reviews
- Ludovic (8/5): - Bien placé Personnel distant et froid. Pas d'effort avec les personnes ne maîtrisant pas l'anglais
- Yasaman (6/5): -
- Vaibhav (7/5): - Location Options in Breakfast
- Garth (8/5): -
- Justin (9/5): -
- Debra (2/5): -
- Tina (8/5): - Clean and great breakfast Bed could have been better
- Te Paea (9/5): Loved the location, friendly staff, clean rooms & complimentary breakfast - Room size catered for 2 of us and was very clean. Complimentary breakfast a bonus. All staff were very friendly and helpful. Location was within walking distance to the city and Suncorp Stadium.
- Jenny (8/5): -
- Andrea (7/5): - Room clean and comfortable. Train station 5 minute walk Breakfast was average, fruit did not look fresh. Room charges more than what I booked
- Jackson (8/5): - Friendly staff Pillows to hard
- Ben (5/5): -
- Horne (8/5): -
- Adam (8/5): Good rate and breakfast - Great hotel and room. Experience slightly tainted by the huge group that bowled in as we were checking in. Very rude, loud and self important. Poor coffee at breakfast ... perhaps get a half decent machine.
- Stacey (7/5): Clean rooms, friendly staff and a great location, however the uncomfortable bed made sleeping difficult during our stay. - The staff were friendly and it was reassuring having reception staffed 24/7. The rooms were clean and the location was convenient and close to everything we needed. Overall the stay was okay, however the bed was extremely uncomfortable. After sleeping on it for three nights we woke up each morning with a sore back and body aches, which really impacted the quality of the stay. A more supportive mattress would make a big difference for future guests.
- Ofelia (8/5): Great location and clean - Good location , close to the train station . The room was small for two people with medium sized luggage and carryon bags
- Deborah (10/5): -
- The Whitchurch's (9/5): - Location was good. Breakfast was amazing. The beds are very firm
- Belen (10/5): -
- Lois (10/5): Would recomend this hotel - Room was clean and the breakfast was great Everything was fine except there was some construction opposite but that was out of their control .
- FRAN (8/5): - Convenient location The price was exorbitant for what it was. Paid $475 a night for a bed and shower
- Marco (5/5): - Breakfast The carpark situation
- Shane (7/5): -

- Moon (8/5): -
- Louisa (10/5): -
- Stephen (10/5): Excellent 2 night stopover - Almost everything we liked about our stay, staff super friendly and helpful. Only downside would be breakfast, juice was watered down. Being able to get lactose free milk for cereal was a positive 😋
- Lana (10/5): Highly recommend. - Great location and walk to riverside and many restaurants and bars.
- Garry (9/5): Great buffet breakfast… value for money. - Central to city and Fortitude Valley. Lack of signage leading to Carpark underneath. Get more signage for car parking.
- john (10/5): - The tavern beach house next door food is excellent. The room was great. Car parking is really good. The bed was good. The shower needs a grab rail. Locks on doors need to be more secure with door chains. A small microwave would be nice.
- edmundo (10/5): Ubicación, calidad y precio - Excelente ubicación, buen desayuno y mejor atención. Nada
- Wayne (9/5): Amazing clean hotel that is perfect for a city break - Value for money and inclusive of breakfast, ideal location Check in staff appeared unengaged and lacked a welcoming demeanour. Service was efficient but felt robotic.
- Shockley (10/5): - Everything Nothing
- Lynette (8/5): Comfortable and Convenient - Very close location to restaurants and doctors on Wickham Tce. Very busy at breakfast! Continually running out and slow to refill.
- edmundo (10/5): Excelente ubicación - Excelente ubicación, buen desayuno y buena atención. Nada
- Navigate25606166822 (4/5): Gone downhill. Disappointing. - Gone downhill. Bathroom absolutely stunk from either the drain or the airvent. The shower curtain was mouldy. They replaced it when asked the following day with one that was far too short so that water went all over the floor.
Indian man in reception was rude.
Hallways need vacueming.
Breakfast is pretty good and the wsit staff are friendly and helpful.
The accessible rooms ( wheelchair) are a good size.
I stayed 5 nights. And although I've stayed here 4 times for usually a week at a time I probably won't be back.
- Kym (8/5): -
- Adrie (8/5): Mooi groot hotel. - Ontbijt was goed
Parkeren kon gelukkig voor de deur, de garage was vol. Was goed voor 1 overnachting.
- Allan (8/5): Overall a good stay, wider breakfast options would be nice - Central to our needs Breakfast was hit and miss, good the first day, 2nd day, no teabags, cutlery and food not being refilled quickly
- aaronw218 (10/5): Great stay in Brisbane - Stayed here for a few days in July. The rooms were clean and small. All the rooms are the same size so my family of 4 needed 2 rooms. They did a good job of making the rooms look bigger than they are.
The morning breakfast was the highlight! Coming from the U.S. I wasn’t expecting much but I was greatly surprised. There was a huge spread of food every morning, fresh eggs, a potato, breakfast beans, a meat, yogurts, fresh fruits, and beverages. It was a great start to a day of walking and traveling around the area.
If you have a vehicle, the car park is a tight squeeze if you have a van. The lobby has a small bar if you need a night cap.
If we ever get back to Brisbane, I would stay here again.
- Lindy (8/5): Good for an over night short stay. - Clean, food was good Rooms were very small but tidy.
- Phil (9/5): Great - Convenient location and nice breakfast
- Neil (9/5): Perfect for short stay in central Brisbane. Excellent value. - the room was exceptionally clean, basic but well appointed. everything Staff were very friendly and efficientworked well. The breakfast was great, simple but with a good spread of fresh food. A perfect place for a short stay trip to central Brisbane.
- Kelly (10/5): -
- Erin (10/5): -
- Wenshii (3/5): Really bad - Before check-in, a twin room option was clearly offered, but after check-in, only a double room was available. Booking.com is still selling the twin room option.Purely deceiving consumers
- RICHARD (5/5): - Location is good i
- Amanda (7/5): Resonable choice for a night or two. - Black out curtains
Clean rooms
Comfortable beds Unfriendly staff
A bit dirty downstairs
Breakfast area was a bit dirty
- Chelsea (8/5): - Great location.

- Karen (9/5): -
- Jodi (10/5): Breakfast no accommodation yes - Very comfortable bed and beautiful surrounding Breakfast was a let down, food was cold and they packed up around us as we were serving ourselves so we had to race back get the food off the trollies. The feeling they gave us was bad. Attitude side eye. Very uncomfortable 😕
- Callum (10/5): Very great stay will Definetly be back soon - Very clean great service and cheap for the location and very good breakfast Nothing
- Mauro (10/5): EXCELENTE RELACION PRECIO-CALIDAD - Lo que mas me gusto fue la relación precio calidad. La verdad que sentí que mi dinero valió la pena. La habitación era muy linda, todo estaba impecable, la cama grande y cómoda. Nada de ruidos, sin dudas volveré si mantienen el precio. La zona del desayuno estaba atestada de gente, me costo encontrar donde sentarme a pesar de ser una persona sola, pero quizas ese dia habia un contingente y me toco justo con ellos. La oferta de comida es buena, el cafe gratuito es malo, recomiendo comprar un expresso.
- SU-FEN (8/5): 很棒的住宿地點與服務。 - 1. Stay green 可以每晚500點加入membership 帳戶內,我很喜歡。
2. 地點很棒,方便到訪Queen Street Mall, 而且搭公車和火車都很方便。 1. 我住在有view of valley的房間,要加錢,結果這房間的窗戶是落地窗,不是半截的窗戶,我有一點懼高症,不敢開窗戶,所以選這種要多付費的房型是錯誤的決定。
2. 浴室的玻璃門關不住淋浴的水,會流到洗臉檯下的地面上,建議準備踩腳布放在浴室內,不然我只好用浴巾當踩腳布。
3.早餐缺乏蔬菜。

Not a good selection of hot food, inconsistent selections (porridge one day, not available the next). Very basic and I didn't have a great start to my day as a result. the eggs were rubbery and there was no other protein option.
