The hotel had rooms overlooking the water, but it seemed they didn't have double-glazed windows to block out the noise. The rooms were extremely dirty and needed a deep clean. Despite being on the fifth floor instead of a higher floor, the location was workable and within walking distance of the CBD.

I had a great stay at the hotel! The rooms had a nice makeover, making them quite pleasant. They were clean and very comfortable, though I wished for a room with a better view considering the high-rise buildings around. The service was excellent at reception, but I did receive some wrong information, and the air conditioning kept flickering on and off. The location was perfect for exploring Brisbane with quick and easy access to everything. The dining options were good, especially with The Guilt Rogue bar nearby offering amazing lunch specials. Overall, a wonderful experience with a few minor hiccups.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was great with stunning views overlooking Brisbane River & Southbank, and it was close to everything. However, the noise from the verandah and reception area was quite bothersome. The rooms were clean, but the early morning noise from lifts and running water was a downside.

The hotel was conveniently located close to public transport and within walking distance of popular areas like South Bank and Queens St Mall. The rooms could benefit from updating and being situated on a higher floor to reduce noise from the freeway. The check-in time of 3 pm was adhered to.

I had a fantastic New Year's Eve stay at the hotel with a spectacular river view at night from my room. The full functioning kitchen with a full-size fridge was a great addition. The service was excellent, helpful, and accommodating, especially when I checked out the Sky Lounge at sunset for a breathtaking view up the river. The location was perfect for exploring SouthBank and the City, being within walking distance of key attractions. The dining options, including The Guilt Rogue bar nearby, were a delightful culinary experience. Overall, a great stay with a few minor drawbacks.
