Hotel berhampiran Fitzgibbon Bushlands, Brisbane

We were dropped at this motel by mistake by our Taxi driver. Couldn't understand why the checkin was not going well. It turned out we had been dropped at the wrong Motel by our taxi driver. No problem says Deanne the lovely motel owner, i will get my staff to drive you over to where you have already booked in. What an awesome gesture. Thanks Deanne. You made our day. I so hope that we can return the favour sometime soon. Support this business because of their very generous care of short stay customers.

It was an absolutely lovely stay excellent staff and they where very friendly and helpful with any questions that we wanted answered or if we needed directions to a place will definitely recommend staying here or I’ll stay back here myself the best thing that’s a benefit is the heated pool that they have perfect for them cold days where you want to go for a swim but don’t want to end up sick.

Loved this place, reception staff are always so nice the rooms are that of close to a 5 star rating the only reason it’s not a full 5 star is the pool is small and no gym facilities etc but rooms with spa in them are amazing will definitely be back!!!

A good beachside option in Brisbane. I normally stay in Redcliffe but tried Margate for a change. I was pleasantly surprised. Whilst the room was expensive it was a well sized and furnished room with side on sea views. Sea front rooms were an extra $100 + dollars a night. The bathroom was particularly well laid out and I liked the comfortable leather chaise lounge in the room. Their is limited undercover car parking on site. Whilst I didn’t eat there, the restaurant downstairs has a lovely beachside outlook. Their is a roof top pool and bar. The bar was very popular the night we stayed. The people going to and from the bar tend to monopolise the only elevator on premises meaning longish waits to secure a space to go up or down. The balcony has a light on that I couldn’t find out how to turn off. Dining options are a 15 minute walk away in Redcliffe. Service at the front desk was fine. In summary, a good beachside accommodation option.

very clean and tidy - well equipped kitchen and pleasant helpful staff

If you have things planned within Brisbane CBD then this is the best hotel for you. Amenities and facilities are all basic but they got everything you need for a comfortable stay. Buffet breakfast is almost the same each day but they serve good coffee anyway. Their gym is also open 24 hours a day if you wamt to squeeze in a little workout in between your trip.

Nice new hotel, recommend it to my friends. People are nice to help. Lots guests but still managed well. Few safeguards at front door, that’s not usual in AUS hotels, but good.

Room was cozy and spacious. Big bathroom with a bathtub. Free water and soft drink in the mini bar. The heritage elevator in the building was an experience. 11 am check out was brilliant! Only one thing.. wifi is too slow to use. Even the smart tv was lagging because of the slow wifi during stay. Other than that, it was great for a little staycation!

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.
