Great location, but YMCA / hostel style

I didn't notice when booking this hotel that it was owned/operated by the YMCA. The rooms are small, amenities and furniture reminded me of a student dorm-room, and the bathroom is so small you can't sit on the toilet straight because your legs jam into the sink. But maybe…

Hi 20-20_Travels, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with other travellers. The hotel is owned and operated by the YMCA but all that this means is that all of the profits from our hotel go back into the community to assist vulnerable Queenslanders. Whilst we understand that a few of our rooms are small, with our new 55inch flat screen smart TV's I think that the amenities far surpass anything I had in college. Next time you find yourself in our beautiful river city I would suggest you try one of our terrace or sofa rooms, whilst a little more expensive if you want some extra space they are a great choice. Warmest Regards, Management

One night stay

Central city location. Best feature is the diner next door! (51st Avenue) Pros:- security swipe card required to go up to room floors and then another swipe through the next security door to get to your room..... so, good security! Clean and comfortable bed. Quiet (I heard no…

Comfortable stay, friendly staff

I recently stayed for the one night, was a decent price in comparison to other hotels. Good central location, and very helpful and friendly staff. Comfortable bed. Room was very basic but perfectly fine, and all you need if out of the room during the day. Cleanliness not up to…

Hi hbe2016, Thank you for sharing your experience with other travellers. Some great advice there for people traveling into Brisbane, the public transport is a great way to move around. From the hotel it is so easy to make your way to places like Lone Pine and Brett's Wharf. We look forward to your return next time you find yourself in the river city. Warmest Regards, Management.

Cheap and Noisy

This hotel is cheap and perhaps for the money is good value, but be prepared for the paper thin walls, so it next door have their TV on you get to hear it too! The bed was comfortable and the location is great, but I guess you get what you pay for.

Hi Karen K, Thank you for taking the time to share your experiences with other travellers. It's great news that you found that the hotel was good value and that the bed and location are great, we are sorry to hear that you could make out the sounds from your neighbours TV. We are currently working on a way to eliminate this issue and hopefully the next time you find yourself in Brisbane you can stay with us and let us know what you think. Warm Regards, Management.

I'm a regular visitor to Brisbane, but have always stayed at the Ibis near this hotel. My brother and father have recommended to try this hotel. so I will be staying for 2 nights in April. as i an a big man is there anything i should know bout the hotel? and do they offer room upgrades? any sugfgestions to maximise my enjoyment of the hotel? if i find they are better than the ibis i may make this my regular place for my brisbane trips

Don't know what size bedroom you have at home. We stayed in 308 and yes it's a bedroom. you can sit on a desk but it's not convenient to chill. Next time i would prefer a room at a higher floor wrt the street noice. I'm 1.87m and for me the bed was oké.

What is breakfast? Is it a buffet?

No, far from it. You are given a voucher for $ 12.00 to spend at the cafe. This gives you the basic bacon & eggs only. Not what we expected !!

I have made a reservation at George Williams for 2 nights from 16 Sept to 18 Sept 2015. We are coming there during your peak winter season. How cold will it be in the hotel lobby, restaurants and bar ? Will it be comfortable to walk outside till 10 pm at night ? Are there any Indian Restaurants nearbly serving dinner by 9 pm entry ?. How far is the Brisbane Hop on hop off explorer bus stop from George Williams ?

All areas of the hotel are heated and will be comfortable. You'll need a jacket to go out at night but it will be chilly rather than freezing.
