Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Evolution Apartments are appreciated for their convenient location near Roma Street station, making airport transfers easy, and being within walking distance of the shopping center and the Brisbane Convention Centre. Many guests enjoyed the spacious apartments with well-equipped kitchens and city views from the large balconies, and having a washing machine was a plus. While some guests have mentioned that the apartment decor appears a little dated, the pool, gym, and Sky Lounge on the 36th floor provide great views of Brisbane.
