Top Brisbane Central Business District Hotel Reviews

The Star Grand Brisbane

10/10 Excellent

"Can not fault the place a complete pleasure to stay at The Star, just a wonderful experience all round."

Ibis Styles Brisbane Elizabeth Street

10/10 Excellent

"Check in was very easy, lifts up to the room were fast and clean, great location, great air-conditioning, everything was spotless. Only drawback was the hotel on the corner was very loud and pumped the music until midnight, not really an issue if you're getting in late but should be considered if you are a light sleeper, book a room on the far side if you can. Otherwise, i would highly recommend this accommodation and will absolutely be staying here again."
