Hotels near Indooroopilly Secrets & River Walk (Self-Guided walking tour) by FreeGuides.com, Indooroopilly

We were not aware of the late check in procedures but thankfully the staff (Dana) reached out and sorted it out for us, otherwise we might have been locked out! The hotel,building and room looks clean and new. Although it's located right above Taringa train station, we did not hear any sounds from the trains at all during our stay. Covered parking is available for a fee or there is usually street parking. If you are checking in, there is a loading zone next to the hotel. As the hotel is on a steep slope, might be worthwhile parking as near you can to unload. Although there is no housekeeping services for short stays, the front desk are helpful with any requests always. Overall, a great affordable find for a new-ish hotel and minutes away from the CBD, UQ and westfield indooroopilly.

Loc Super convenient location on the corner of Jephson St and Sherwood Rd, with the popular Toowong Village Shopping Centre, a 10 minute walk away. The Toowong railway station can be accessed directly from the shopping centre. There are plenty of buses trundling up and down Sherwood Rd heading in various directions to the city or to the Indooroopilly Shopping Centre further south. The nearest ferry terminal is Regatta, less than a km away, but at the time of writing it is still under repair following last year's floods. Room We found the room to be clean, comfortable and spacious, with a large king bed, two bedside tables, each with a drawer and a lamp, a TV on the wall, and a handy desk for working at. On the balcony, was a small table and two chairs. There were plenty of power points to charge appliances and the downlights were strong enough for easy reading. The stylish touch lamp on the desk and standing lamp in the corner were useful for extra illumination. There was a hanging rail with about eight hangers. There were two sets of two drawers, one underneath the hanging rail and the safe, with one larger set underneath the TV. They were reasonably sized, but being virtually on the floor, they were super inconvenient to access. I can’t understand why the designers didn’t think of this, because it’s extra difficult to get down so low, especially if you’re a bit older, or with knee problems. Also in the room was a safe but that too required bending down. On top of the safe and below the hanging rail was a shelf to store one suitcase. The tea and coffee making facilities were also very difficult to access as they were rammed into a little shelf snuck between the drawers and the desk-top. The room though was quiet, being at the back of the property and therefore not facing directly onto either Jephson Street or Sherwood Rd, both busy roads. One could hear some noise from within the hotel as people walked up and down the corridor, but it was a minor inconvenience and most fellow guests seemed friendly and well behaved. There wasn’t much of a view, and the room just looked out onto the sprawling next door apartment complex, and to the right between the trees we could see Jephson Street, and the traffic going up and down, but the sound didn’t carry into the bedroom if the balcony door was kept closed. Bathroom The bathroom was not an en-suite, being situated in the passageway, between the front door and the bed. That was just as well, as it had a sliding door, which is never great for privacy, although it could be locked. But the bathroom was modern and stylish, and the water pressure in the shower was strong. A transparent glass wall separated the bathroom from the bedroom, which shocked me when I first saw it. I immediately phoned the reception to tell them that we needed another room due to the lack of bathroom privacy. But luckily, as reception pointed out to me, the glass has an inbuilt feature which, at the flick of a switch could turn i

We checked in Monday 25th July and checked out Monday 1st August this was a 7-night stay. We stayed in apartment 15 which faces onto Jephson street, Toowong. Toowong is actually somewhere we lived several years ago and back then - 2014 - we were quite close to this complex so we have some previous experience of this immediate area. It is a very good spot to be placed; plenty of public transport, car parking in complex, shopping at nearby Toowong Village Complex, a ‘GoodLife Gym’ (which if you ask management nicely may let you have a very reasonably priced short-term daily / weekly entrance pass – my wife did this), coffee shops and so on. Good spot to be. Just across the road is 'The Gunshop Cafe' - we had a breakfast there really, really recommend. Toowong Central Apartments are an older set of 28 apartments BUT the welcome, the hosting, the housekeeping and in particular the unit we stayed in was fresh and crisp. Please note: this is a busy area at times so you will experience traffic noise (peak hours) and this was the case in apartment 15; for us however it was not an issue – we have traveled extensively and when our heads hit the (very comfortable bed and pillows, in this case) we sleep like logs. If, however, you are a light sleeper speak in advance to manager Jack (who is very approachable) and see if one of the other units might be available and perhaps better suit your needs. I am confident he will do his best for you if he can. Check-in time was 1.00pm; we arrived sometime prior to check-in but on-site manager Jack kindly took our luggage to store whilst my wife went (via ‘Good-life Gym’) to an early morning business meeting; I went out for coffee and breakfast – lots of choice very close by. Worth noting that on-site manager Jack has been here for the last ten years; he is still, self-evidently, keeping a firm hand on his leadership and management duties even during these difficult Covid / post Covid times when hospitality has really struggled. Jack is, in our short stay here, doing a good job in providing safe, serviceable, comfortable and welcoming apartment type accommodation. Thank you – Jack! When finally we were checking in, the first thing I heard was my wife exclaim from the bathroom: ‘Home-made hand soap! How lovely!’ Good start! Apartment 15 is very well presented; the unit is in really good condition beautifully clean and really welcoming. Very strong (free) Wi-Fi and reliable connection throughout our stay. The double bed is very comfortable. The bathroom is in excellent condition (looks fairly new) and water pressure from shower excellent. Hot water plentiful with no loss of heat if enjoying an extended shower. Comfortable sofa, comfortable table and chairs both inside and outside (on balcony); all serviceable and well maintained. Kitchen area beautiful clean on arrival and all is in place to make our stay a pleasant one. Fridge good and cold. Great lighting throughout this unit. Loved the bedside lamps. Ther

Hotel location is not bad, 2.7 km from the University of Queensland, 15 minutes walk there is a large shopping mall and supermarket, we arrived some night, contact the hotel in advance, the hotel room key in the room is placed in the safe at the door, took the key Directly stationed. The whole room was very good, and it looked very hygienic. After we completely relaxed, we saw an extra large cockroach on the wall of the bathroom (about one inch long), frightened the three children, and the husband brave. He shot him to death, but then saw a few more in different places and continued to shoot. The hotel used a bottle of aerosol spray to prepare it, and told the front desk that they gave another bottle. Apart from the rest, the view from the balcony is good and the surroundings are quiet.

We booked this accommodation overlooking the river as very close to Wesley Hospital. I spoke to Kerrin direct on making the booking and then met him on check in. He was very professional and helpful. I requested a late check out which he assisted with, but depends on the day, plus arranged for continued parking the following day, which was very helpful. The bathroom, bedroom and lounge area was clean and everything was in good working order. I read one or two poor reviews, which were untrue in our experience, due to good value for money, we were pleasantly surprised. For the people who made poor reviews on these apartments, they should consider paying the price for a 5 star accommodation rate elsewhere, as you pay for what you get and these apartments were definitely good value and clean. We will return if we ever require to visit the area again. Thank you.

We were due to stay here for 3 nights, however checked out after 1 night. Unfortunately we were sharing a room with an incredibly loud snorer, resembling an animal of some sort. Of course, this isn’t the hostels fault, but pairing this with a very bright outdoor light plus a bright fridge light inside the room, I got max. 1.5 hours sleep. I also found one of the reception staff to be rude, as when asking for a blanket at around 9PM, I was told ‘Reception is closed’ whilst he walked away from me. He then reappeared a minute later, and alas reception had not closed. I wouldn’t recommend staying here!!!

An absolute nightmare to find and check in ! $200 “security deposit “ that they hold onto for so long is boarder line criminal . It’s more than the cost of the studio ! No sofa. I won’t be returning

Very nice hotel, clean and tidy, very convenient transportation, not too far from the bus station and train station, and next to the big supermarket, shopping is also very convenient, good service attitude, staying very good, the backyard can enjoy the cold, feel Very good, although my language ability is limited, but the hotel staff are very patient, promptly answer and respond to our questions and requests, very friendly and enthusiastic!

This motel is not far outside the BNE Local Government Area and was a convenient spot for us as we transitted BNE Airport overnight going to rural QLD whilst the city was in lockdown. It is clean. Convenient. Close to the main road. A good price and an OK proposition for families. At the time it was a pricey proposition for a family but understandable given school hols and so close to the Gold Coast. Management are friendly and patient. Whilst we are unlikely need to transit this area again, this would be my choice of we did.

This was the best breakfast I have ever eaten, they went to so much trouble for all there, there was a quiz, a raffle with great prizes, the place was decorated beautifully & the food was superb, I wanted to steal the baked leg ham it was so good & as it was buffet you could have as much as you wanted - it was a thoroughly enjoyable morning & the staff were very attentive, there was nothing left to chance & I look forward to next year
