Just spent one night on way to America, found the lady in reception very unfriendly, no smiles or help really, it was like we interrupted her. Room was very nice clean and new, overpriced though and had to pay $40 in taxi to get there and $12 each to get back to airport

Compared to the airport inn which is next door and absolute rip off rubbish, the Ascot was clean, newly fitted, comfortable and quiet enough. A little over priced for its location - city hotels inc breaky at this price. Still - glad they had availability and thumbs down wotif for charging us high fees for not staying in a brothel,... More

Very clean and well kept. Quiet and perfect for the overnight traveller. Walking distance to the pier with many restaurants and a movie theatre. After hours reception staff were very friendly. Smooth and pleasant experience. Better than more expensive nearby hotels.

Stayed here for a one night stop over and found the hotel to be perfect. Late night check in was fast and easy as was the check out. Room was great !!

I was disappointed to hear that you found the staff unhelpful during your stay and I will be taking this up with the person concerned. From you report I take it that it was because you requested a room at the back on arrival that the staff were unhelpful. If this is the case rooms are allocated prior to your... More

Can't understand why some reviews are so glowing - they must be comparative and say more about other places. Though new, this is just another motel with smaller rooms and less service than some I have stayed at. Staff were sullenly unhelpful during my stay on 29 April and the 'free wifi' was for 15 minutes only - after that... More

Good news. Brisbane City Council have already been out and inspected the hump in the road and have assured me that it will be fixed in 2 or 3 days. Once again thank you for making us aware of this problem More

We stayed here just one night before boarding a cruise ship (free shuttle service) New,clean, well equiped and reasonably priced. Much thought has been given to the room facilities for instance including breakfast cereal bowls for an early start. There are restaurants nearby but we were tired and eat from the delivered menu which was adequate. If we ever do... More

Stayed here for one night. Clean, modern and not incredibly expensive (unlike most of the rest of Australia these days). Reception was very friendly but closed at 9 PM, which could be a bit early for some. There was 15 minutes of wifi free, but it would have been nice to have had free wifi with no restrictions.

Thank you for your comments. We are working on our WiFi provider to get more free time but have not had any success so far. Even though Reception closes at 9pm we are available 24 hours for anything that you need. More

This is a spanking new hotel, with the most comfortable bed we had throughout Australia, and a nice assortment of tea/coffee/treats to welcome us. Had a 'suite' (small), with a separate bedroom for the kids, which was a life saver. Staff were friendly and helpful, shower was a bit on the small size, but ultra-modern and shiny bathroom overall. Would... More

We stayed here just the one night as our flight home was early morning. Although it was not as close to the airport as we thought we were delighted with the shuttle service in the early hours. Our room was clean and comfortable with a cute wee balcony. The lovely lady at reception was really helpful and friendly-thank you. We... More
