8/10 Very good

The hotel is nice. Currently under remodel but they did a good job of keeping it clean. The only thing we didnt enjoy was the lack of privacy in the bathroom. The rolling doors leave a portion under the sink open to the bedroom.

The staff, breakfast and cleanliness was great. The hotel is in a very handy location for Brisbane convention centre and Southbank in general. Two of us were travelling in a twin room and it was a bit on the small side. It would be fine for a couple…

We travelled interstate by car and found parking at the hotel easy, convenient and well-priced, although a little snug for our large vehicle! Check in was quick and simple and we were quickly settled in our clean, well-appointed room overlooking the park - a lovely outlook. The buffet breakfast featured an impressive range of dishes and the quality was fantastic. The hotel was conveniently located for our one-night stay, within walking distance West End and the South Bank ferry stop to explore the city.
