Hotels near South Bank Market in Brisbane

Fantastic - really great location, near the convention centre, the ferry and shopping area. Very modern and clean, great to have a place to make a piece of toast and cup of tea in the morning. Would highly recommend to anyone staying more than a few days in Brisbane.

Travelling to BNE every 15 days and I used to stay in the CDB, even when attending some conferences in BCEC. Due to a last minute booking, I ended-up at the Novotel few months ago, and this place is officially my new HOME when in town. Clean and tidy very modern quiet rooms, 100m walk from exhibitions halls (thanks to a shortcut at the back), with a 24/7 accessible parking (you can get in and out easily), this place is super convenient. You are just next door to all what Southbank has to offer and a short walk distance (or scooter ride) to the CDB (pedestrian bridge over the river) Staff are young and efficient, smiling all day. ACCOR Motto btw. Last but no least, you stay far from the noisy students/backpackers nightlife + trains / highway of downtown. After all, even if you are in Bris-Vegas, you came here for a rest!

Booked through Luxury Escapes.. sorry to say I should have checked reviews first. The location is good restaurants and hotels nearby plus easy walk to convention Centre..but that’s where the good news ends. Tiny one bedroom, weird balcony with no furniture, no decoration and the most uncomfortable lounge and chairs. View over building site. Had to ask for tea and coffee sachets, for the bottle of wine that was supposed to cone with booking. No ambience at all!

Hassle fee service and very good quality

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.

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.

We booked a one bedroom apartment with mountain view for Brisbane river fire. It was a very pleasant stay and the hotel was very clean and comfortable. Excellent location with a short stroll to the culture centre and Southbank. The coffee shop downstairs made breakfast easy. It was also great value for money. The only downside was the closeness to the train tracks so you could hear the train all night - but it wasn’t that loud and didn’t really impact our sleep.

The room decoration is generally average, not like a five-star hotel, but a bit like a newly opened express hotel in China. The so-called river view rooms only see a little bit diagonally. The elevator is also inconvenient. You have to swipe your card to get to your own floor. The reservation of two rooms by a travel companion was ignored even if they were arranged on the first floor. They are on different floors several floors apart. It is very inconvenient to go through the door. The only advantage is that the hotel's location is relatively central. It's in a pedestrian street, so it's quite lively even if you come back late at night, and it's relatively safe. The breakfast room has the same variety every day.

The hotel is in a great position. Right on Southbank and a two minute walk to Fish Lane. Parking is first in and we could only see maybe 7 guest parks, all taken. All photos on the apartment website and Booking.com show a variety of rooms. Nothing could have prepared us for the horrible room we were given. Definitely not shown in the photos. The lounge was a disgusting fold up futon with an ill fitting cover over it. The vacuum cleaner was wall mounted right in the middle of the tiny lounge area? Fortunately the check in receptionist was able to find another room for us for which we are very grateful so make sure you get what you paid for and was expecting. The cutlery and glasses were all dirty. Reception closed at 3pm? and no reception on Sunday. There is a great little bottle shop and gin bar next door

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.
