Would we use this hotel again, not sure Pros Great location if you want to eat out, see the inner city, short walk to main street shops, great walks along the river, plenty to do.

We stayed for 4 nights recently for a family wedding. Interestingly we had 7 rooms booked, and not 1 room was the same. Our bathroom was too small and had nowhere to put your toiletries andn the lighting was terrible. Other rooms were too small in the kitchenette area, hanging space and one had a balcony. All for the same... More

The staff are indeed young but very helpful. I rang the day before having read the noise reviews and asked for a city view room, away from the train noise, No problem. When I checked in it did not have a bath so I asked for a room change and was upgraded to a one bed apartment for $15. The... More

We stayed for three nights and selected the Hotel for its location, we were not disappointed with the location. It is adjacent to South Bank where you have a great selection of places to eat and things to do. We stayed in the Studio Room and the room was large and spacious, there was a microwave and small kitchenette that... More

I can thoroughly recommend this hotel. The staff were so helpful and friendly. On arrival outside my room a housekeeper greeted me with such a lovely smile it made my day really. The car had to be valet parked but it only took a few minutes and even on the busy Saturday night I didn't have to wait long for... More

Great location, however Mantra has lost there way here. We stayed here for three days and was a disappointing experience. Car parking was only by Valet service with a $35 a day charge. Elevators took forever to arrive at ground. Front desk service was a let down, full of 'smug' kids with attitude. However, rooms were well kept. For our... More

I stayed here for 3 nights for a Conference and can't say I was overly impressed, especially with the service and housekeeping. Staff were not overly helpful and not particularly friendly. Upon checking in I was directed to my room on the 6th floor which overlooked a train line. The room was pleasant but very noisy. I find it unfathomable... More

We stayed in a studio for a conference and I was surprised of the great service and friendly staff. Room was tidy , comfortable beds and great breakfast.3 min walk to the exhibition centre and 25 min walk to suncorp stadium. We combined the weekend with a NRL game which was great. Definitely great value for money paid.
