Black Swamp Wetlands

Stayed here during a family visit in Brisbane. Location of City Star lodge was very convenient being close to Southbank and other attractions/restaurants. Staff were also extremely friendly!

Very centrally located between all the things we visited over the weekend for; fortitude valley, howard smith wharves, CBD and Suncorp Stadium. All walkable within about 2km/30m tops but scooters everywhere for convenience. Access and rooms felt safe. Facilities are very limited and basically you just have a room here, which suited us perfectly. Rooms were small but functional and everything inside worked properly and was extremely clean. Hotel staff at reception very helpful and efficient: although a small hotel, the gentleman gave the impression of having been former career concierge or hotel manager at much larger hotel. Parking was easy as we arrived a little before check in but is limited. Weekend parking in back streets free though which is good. Cleanind staff always friendly when passing by. My first observation on arrival from the driveway was the cleaning staff wiping the room balcony balustrades outside, which i thought was impressively thorough and good attention to detail.
