Hotels near Mayes Park, Brisbane

Friendly & pleasant receptionist. Easy to find. Located within walking distance or short drive to shopping malls & food places. Great underground parking. Room & bathroom were clean & bed was comfortable. Had a good night's sleep. Air conditioning system above the bed was good but is a bit noisy. Plates & cups located in a low cupboard. Hard to reach plates located towards the back of the cupboard. Ironing board & iron were good. The room key card had to be inserted several times to operate the lift. Other stayers had the same issue. Overall a great stay.

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.

It was a nice room, with full windows (the view was to railroad but still you had sun which made me happy) Good choice for who want to stay there or work. The room was fully furnished so you could cook there. We were only one night there, the staff let us to check in even sooner because we arrived few hours before the check in time. Just one thing which we did not like it at all, was about the bed mattress. Totally it was good choice.

The newly-opened voco is a delightful hotel hidden inside an otherwise slightly dreary-looking building. From the outside it looks a tad unappealing, but inside it's been thoroughly rennovated and is quite snazzy. Reception are friendly and the foyer breathes modern. The corridors to the rooms are quite dark and nothing special, but inside, the rooms have been re-built to look and feel quite luxurious for business-traveller standards. Breakfast was an excellent spread and the view from the high-floored rooms are quite nice. One thing to note: there's currently (July '23) major roadworks taking place one block away down North Quay, the road out the front of the hotel. There was no noise in the hotel but traffic out the front of the hotel moves at a snail's pace as a result. For taxi drop-off/pickups, ask for the corner of George St and Ann St. It's a 100m walk and you'll save lots of time.

Stayed overnight in the Brisbane quarters after having to make a last minute booking and being faced with limited accomodation options. I think this place is trying to promote itself as a hybrid hostel/hotel. However having stayed there it’s clearly the former rather than the later. There is of course, nothing wrong with that - but I think it’s been a source of some confusion and previous negative reviews. On the plus side the staff were really friendly, the location was central and the private room we stayed in was fine - with TV (with Netflix), a clean private bathroom, small bar fridge and comfortable bed. It had a compact infinity pool, small kitchen and fitness space (very limited though). It looked recently renovated. Breakfast was included but for memory this was just cereal and toast. On the negative side - it is a hostel. This isn’t really clear on TripAdvisor for some reason. Anyone ＞40 years of age will feel like a dinosaur here. It carries all the traditional tells of a hostel - you get your towel assigned at reception, it’s noisy and the sheets are a bit threadbare. They will ask for your passport or drivers licence as your form of ID. Overall it’s a great option if you know what you’re in for. I think the private rooms are only worth it if they are priced around 100 dollars or less as there are usually plenty of hotels around that 150-200 mark.

I recently stayed at the Soho Hotel Brisbane from January 3rd to January 4th, 2024, and I must say it was a fantastic experience! The check-in process went smoothly; the staff was very welcoming, and the room was clean and comfortable. The hotel's central location made it easy for me to explore the city. I particularly appreciated the attention to detail in the room amenities. Overall, it was a delightful stay at the Soho Hotel 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.

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.

Stayed there with my partner and baby. Was absolutely disgusting. Mattress had blood stains on it. Cockroaches and other insects everywhere. The receptionist and cleaners were nice. But the manager was absolutely rude and not professional in the slightest. Had cockroaches go into my babies bottles, in his cot. In my bed under my pillows and all. Couldn’t walk around without shoes. The door to the room was broken. Roaches in the shared shower and toilet. Even in the sink in our room roaches came crawling out. Not worth the money. When I asked for a refund the manager swore at me, was extremely rude. Not in any way sympathetic like the other staff were. I will be taking this further as it’s a health and safety hazard.

The motel was easy to navigate to for us country bumpkins who don’t drive in the city we could walk to the Westfield shopping centre rooms clean and tidy we had 16 and it was at the back so not much road noise for being on a busy road. Aldi next door was a great convenience
