Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    We decided to see the 'Qld to a T' exhibition through their T-towels display & we were pleasantly surprised. We enjoyed looking back over time through the various T-towels displayed...who could forget Joh & Flo Bjelke Petersen for a laugh or two?

    Just a bridge across from Meriton, an excellent exhibition centre with many beautiful artworks and especially nicely done aboriginal sections.

    Not far from City at The Gap & on banks of Enoggera Reservoir you can visit Walkabout Creek Discovery Centre for small fee $20.90 for family of 2 adults & up to 2 children) & $5.60 concession. Because of dry conditions it isn't at it's peak, but there are still kangaroos, an emu, wombat (sign said he was on holidays last week!) in outdoor area, and underground there is a platypus rockpool & dunnarts, snakes, lizards etc to see. There are 2 feeding times to witness platypus, but he is a wild mammal & chose not to appear at 11am fed while we were there. It is well worth a trip. Green Tree Frog Cafe offers basic food & drink on site. You can go for a swim or kayak in Reservoir & there are several walks through the national park, but again, due to dry conditions some tracks may be closed.

    Saw this place and stopped for a quick visit to get out of the heat and into the air conditioning. Staff were very attentive and helpful. There is a small little cafe where you can sit and have coffee if you like. If you had the time you could spend a few hours there.

    I really enjoyed it. There was even a tree (fake tree probably made of cardboard or paper) in the kids section! I found the DVD that I was looking for! There's even a park outside. It has a tree with long branch and some wooden poles are attached to it to make it safe for all ages to go on it. Lots of fun and different fun things to do at the park. And when you borrow a book out of the library, you can read it at the park because there's shady spots and seating. There's a cafe and ice cream at the park so buy some food at the park and take it into the library. Really big sign so you won't miss it. Easy to find.

    My first walk with the Brisbane Bushwalkers Club (induction walk) was a walk at Mt Coot-tha reserve starting at Grey Gums Picnic Area. We covered a few tracks including Eugenia Circuit, Simpsons Falls and Fairy Wren Circuit. It was an easy walk and leant itself well to the group stopping regularly and going through club rules, first aid / safety matters, club system for grading of tracks etc with the leaders.

    The main thing I learned was the sheer abundance of trails through the Mt Coot-tha Reserve, which is Brisbane’s largest natural area covering 1500+ hectares of open eucalypt forest. There are short walks, long walks, walks with creeks/waterfalls and walks that have BBQ and picnic areas. I am now keen to get back and explore more of Mt Coot-Tha reserve.

    Was initially very apprehensive about booking it following previous reviews. However after regretting not booking a lounge for my outbound flight and a reasonable price offered, I went ahead and so glad I did.
    There were different types of chairs and seating areas to choose from. Staff were friendly and helpful. It wasn’t over busy. Good choice of non-alcoholic drinks. Food offered a sandwich, 4 choices of warm food and a few finger type options (quiche, pizza, nuts, cake). I gave it a 4* due to alcoholic drinks not being included as they have been at all other worldwide lounges I’ve used previously. However this may be reflected in the price.
    Would recommend to others if you have a long wait between check in and boarding.
