Hotel in zona Buranda Station, South Brisbane

Stayed here for 7 nights at the beginning of April. Check in was quick and although we requested a quiet room, we were sadly given a room that faced onto a road and the helipad of the children’s hospital. So, the room was rather noisy from the traffic and from helicopter landing and taking off at night. Even with ear plugs on I could still hear the traffic. Room: Room 714 was very clean, it seems the Australian standards of cleanliness is much higher and better than at our previous Marriott stays in Cardiff, Wales and in Edinburgh, Scotland. Housekeeping at this hotel is very thorough at cleaning, as we didn’t feel any dust on the surfaces. My partner is blind and the first thing he does is touch the surfaces to get to know the layout of the room and he was impressed that tables, chairs & walls didn’t feel dusty. The housekeeping ladies always provided us with fresh towels and 2 bottles of water daily, as well as change the bed linen when requested. These ladies (day as well as evening housekeeping) are all lovely and friendly, requests for extra toilet paper, tissues, even slippers, toothbrush and toothpaste were promptly supplied with a smile. The housekeeping team at this hotel should be commended for keeping rooms/bathroom clean to a high standard. Reception: The ladies at reception Jess and other lady (who doesn’t wear a name badge) are efficient when checking people in however, they were not so friendly once you’ve checked in, they both came across as cold, sourpusses. Every day we went past reception and these 2 ladies never smiled or said hello. Once we initiated a hello and got a forced response. The male reception staff at night and on the days when the ladies were off are much better as they always greeted people as they walked past reception. Location: This hotel is perfectly located as it is close to all the restaurants in the Southbank and there’s lots to choose from. It is also about 2 mins walk to Goodwill bridge which connects to the Botanical Gardens. From this hotel everything is within walking distance, we walked to Queen Street shopping mall daily and it took us about 10 mins via Southbank parklands and crossing the bridge. We are not super fast walkers but we found everything in close proximity to this hotel. We will definitely stay at this hotel again when we return to Australia next year.

Il servizio è stato fantastico, con un grido al personale - Exec Chef James, F&B Operations Manager, Gareth, Christine dal Ristorante Signature per citare alcuni che hanno fatto il nostro soggiorno fantastico e hanno fatto il passo extra. Infatti, tutti i membri del personale che abbiamo incontrato erano molto utili, attenti e felici. Recomandate la piscina al piano di sopra, il bar terrazza per cocktail. Prenota, una perfetta fuga...Lasciate i bambini a casa.

We had to find alternative accommodation at short notice with some difficult personal requirements. The staff at rydges southbank assisted greatly with answering multiple phone calls beforehand to assist. Although not guaranteed, we were given the impression that arriving early at 12 wouldn't have been a problem but didn't get our suites until 2:10 as this has happened to us before elsewhere and advertised check in is 2 we took this as a learning experience check in is 2 plan to be at hotels at 2. We have two king suites on the same floor. This was closest we could figure to adjoining rooms in Brisbane on short notice, which, as already stated, Rydges staff helped organise prior to booking. Both king suites are of good size with a bedroom and separate lounge area and large TV of which both allow use of personal streaming services from phone or laptop there are plenty of charging points and all the usual mini bar tea coffee toiletries fridge and microwave. King size beds are comfortable, although the sheets seem a little small, so I trash them the A/C in one suite is a little too good, and maintenance have turned off as cold bathrooms look recently done with bath and separate shower with good hot water. There is an app for nearly everything here, including room service and digital room keys. Although swipe cards seem more reliable on door locks, the app itself works well and has a surprising amount of things included. Room service always arrives at requested time (on app) and appears to be the same price as eating in Cafe downstairs with only a $4 tray charge added. All food has been great and reasonable priced for hotel food. The cafe downstairs has the same menu with bar and a good range of drinks. The staff is great and always friendly, and I seem happy to be at work. There is a very well equipped gym and large spa separate to the pool area, which so far our stay has been a little cool to use. Best of all, our suites are fully serviced and super clean and restocked daily, which extra amenities and services can also be requested via the app.

Viaggiando a BNE ogni 15 giorni e mi sono abituato a rimanere nel CDB, anche quando sono stato a qualche conferenza in BCEC. A causa di un ultimo minuto di prenotazione, sono finito al Novotel qualche mese fa, e questo posto è ufficialmente il mio nuovo HOME quando in città. Camere molto moderne e tranquille, a 100 m di distanza dalle sale esposizioni (grazie a un racconto a posteriori), con parcheggio accessibile 24/7 (puoi entrare e uscire facilmente), questo posto è super conveniente. Avete appena la porta accanto a tutto quello che Southbank deve offrire e a una breve distanza a piedi (o scooter) dal ponte pedonale sul fiume CDB (CDB) il personale è giovane ed efficiente, sorridendo tutto il giorno. Infine, non si può fare meno, si può stare lontano dai rumorosi studenti/backpackers notturno + treni/autostrada del centro città.Dopo tutto, anche se si trova a Bris-Vegas, è venuto qui per un riposo!

Nice clean 1-bedroom apartment with well-stocked kitchen and comfortable bed. Very central to South bank and West End and near the river front. Just wish that they would spend some money to heat the swimming pool during the autumn and winter months. If your apartment faces Edmondstone Street there is a high-rise apartment being constructed and the crews start working at 7 am which can be noisy.

I love this apartment, the staff is friendly and explained why the parking was not available on the day - even printed a map for us because we couldnt get to the place. Thank you! Love the facilities as well, so lovely, really felt like home away from home.

We had a really nice stay in this service apartment. Very clean, nice staff assistant, very new and well furnished.

Stayed in a one bedroom apartment. It was very large and clean. There is a lounge area and kitchen separate to the bedroom and bathroom. I also had a very large balcony. The furniture is a bit dated, but it's all clean and in good condition. There is no servicing of the room during a stay so ration your toiletries and the like. Reception is only available limited hours and not outside business hours. Overall a good base for a work trip to Sydney.

Fantastico - molto grande posizione, vicino al centro convenzionale, la barca e la zona shopping. Molto moderno e pulito, grande avere un posto per fare un pezzo di tosta e una tazza di tè al mattino. Raccomanderei molto a chiunque rimanga più di pochi giorni a Brisbane.

Wasn’t planning on staying here, but was bumped to this accomodation at the last minute by Clix. So a bit disappointed as we were staying at one of their other buildings which was closer to restaurants etc and had a better pool. The apartment was clean and looked out over the hills and river, the bed was comfortable. Could have done with more kitchen utensils like a baking tray for starters. Stove had a wok burner but no wok or fry pan. Tiny wash basin with no side bench so had to put stuff on floor. Shower door handle had coroded and needs replacing. Disappointed in the pool, even though technically out doors it was all under cover thus no sun light so a bit chilly as it acted as a wind tunnel. Also was on 22nd floor and could still hear trains that ran past building.
