Hotels near Rod and Mary Burrows Park in Brisbane

We stayed here the night before leaving on a cruise that was leaving from the International Cruise Terminal. The main reason we chose this hotel was its close proximity to Roma Street Station as we caught the train from the airport. While it is close to the train station it is located at the top of a reasonable hill and it took a bit of effort to navigate the way to the top, apart from the effort. Several escalators/lifts and then a steep path with no real directions on which way to go. I thought I would be able to see the hotel to give me an idea which way but had to resort to Google Maps to find the way. Unfortunately we were on an early flight into Brisbane so as it was 09:30AM I was not expecting our room to be ready but just needed to store our bags so we good do some exploring. As expected, our room was not ready but the guy behind the counter checked me in, stored our bags and advised that the hotel was busy and our room would not be ready until about 02:00PM. No worries we will be back. We arrived back at 01:00PM and our room was still not ready and waited in the foyer till 02:00PM as previously discussed. Reception gave me our keys and we proceeded to our room on Level 1, or so I thought……..room card would not let me use the lift. Back to reception to have the card re-coded. On entry to our room, it was reasonably spacious and looked clean and reasonably comfortable. Décor a bit dated, but functional. We had a rather large balcony but we could not use it as there was no furniture so the balcony was wasted. Bathroom was small but functional, bit dated but appeared clean. It was only after we used the toilet several times that we noticed water on the floor. We ignored it for quite a while as we thought we had spilt water on the floor but it was not till the next morning that I realised it was coming from under the toilet. I reported it to reception on checkout. As we were tired from our early start we chose to order room service. While we knew how much it was going to cost it was very expensive. Two hamburgers and chips over $70. A bit steep, but as we were so tired we paid so we did not have to go out. The hamburgers were good by the way, but still way too expensive. Overall, this hotel was OK, but the room was supposed to be a superior room. OK. I would hate to be in a Standard Room………..as the room was pretty average for a Superior. After reading some of the other reviews the price we paid was fair and the location is good, just not when you have to push two big suitcases that we were taking on a cruise up the hill from the station. PS. It cost us $73 in the taxi to get to the Cruise Terminal.

Good location and beautiful view. With everything like microwave knives forks spoons plates cups pans pots in the kitchen and washing machine dryer iron hangers. Better offer the room clean service everyday. 8 minutes walk to the city, 1 min walk to the nearest Woolworths, 10 minutes walk across the bridge next to the hotel to the library of Queensland, art gallery, gallery, museum, Brisbane sign, south bank and so on

Recommend if you are looking for a clean and quality place to stay and are a budget traveller. This yha has a very high standard compared to others. It is more like a youth hotel with bunk beds rather than a backpackers place. You also meet travellers of all ages, families and youth groups around the place. The rooms are super tidy and serviced daily, spacious luggage lockers that fit a large suitcase (fantastic!) and are light filled with aircon or windows to be opened. The kitchen is very big, nice rooftop terrace with city views and pool area. Tv lounge and soon it’s own co working hub which I think is a great addition to the concept. Free luggage storage for guests and friendly and helpful staff.

It's not a hotel ”HOTEL” where you'll have cleaners come everyday to make your bed empty your rubbishes but its has kitchen and you have to empty your rubbish bin via a rubbish chute located outside your room near the lifts. But it definitely worth every penny of it, love its location and cleanliness. We were allocated premium room on 81st floor and was the most amazing view and experience!!! Thank you ALEX for your excellent service

Great apartment, spacious and had all I needed for a comfortable stay. Internal laundry, Foxtel, Air con and ceiling fans, full kitchen amenities and a walk in wardrobe between the bedroom and bathroom. Staff were friendly and helpful.

The location of the hotel is superior, the service staff is friendly, the environment is clean, the price is high, and there are many parking spaces! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

Located in the heart of Brisbane's CBD, convenient for shopping & sightseeing with the Victoria Bridge over to South Bank a short walk away, Irish pub next door to the hotel & plenty of shops & food choices around, also local buses, taxis & a choice of train stations in easy walking distance & around the corner from the ******!

This hotel is just a 5 min walk to the Queen Street Mall and also very close to the Treasury ******. I arrived at about 2:00pm (the set check inn time), but a large tour group was also trying to check inn. So I let my luggage and came back latter. My room was located on Level 12, and at the back of the building. As the hotel is opposite a construction site, it was wise to have a room facing the back of this building. The view is nothing exceptional - just a small courtyard with taller buildings surrounding the hotel. The room was very spacious with a comfortable sofa-chair and lamp to view the TV (from a distance). The internet was hit and miss. There are two connections. One free with lower internet speeds and another network for $5 with higher speeds. I was given access to the higher speed network for free when visiting the reception for voucher. Some times the internet connection was exceptional but often it dropped out and you have to reconnect several times. The bathroom was very modern and shower was fulled enclosed with glass door, rather than a shower curtain. However, note there are two issues with the bathroom. The toilet is not accustomed too much paper, and was often blocked. (fortunately there is bathroom brush provided to unblock the toilet). Secondly, there seems to be some problem with the drain under the sink, that was letting water in to the bathroom floor. Hap to mop up the wet floors, using towels, which I put over the drain. Despite these problems, I would still recommend this hotel. It represents good value for money in a prime location.

Room was nice, clean, new and accessible. The location was great, nice vibe in the area with great shopping and eating/drinking venues. Staff very polite and helpful. Train from airport to the valley and about 10 min walk to the Sage.

9 Recreational visits over the years says it all. Great location, very comfortable rooms, excellent dining options and fantastic pricing. Although not as ”glitzy” as some of the newer hotels, it's almost a bit old fashioned in the nicest possible way - and that's very much part of its attraction.
