Top South Brisbane Hotel Reviews

Capri by Fraser, Brisbane

8/10 Good

"Great location"

Amora Hotel Brisbane

10/10 Excellent

"We had a beautiful stay celebrating a birthday in Brisbane. We appreciated very much the extra touches, room upgrade, chocolates and champagne which made a special occasion even more special. The room was beautifully decorated and immaculately clean. Beds were extremely comfortable and room peacefully quiet. All staff encountered were warm and professional. We highly recommend."

Ibis Styles Brisbane Elizabeth Street

8/10 Good

"We had a great stay right in the heart of Brisbane. The room was clean and modern and while a little small it was perfect for us. Staff were really lovely and helpful and the breakfast was amazing! The meals at the restaurant are simple but tasted great. There is no pool, however the southbank pools are just across the river. All in all a good place to stay for a short trip to Brisbane."

Hotel Diana South Brisbane

10/10 Excellent

"Tina was our hostess upon arrival. Exceptionally bubbly and helpful. The young lady we had upon checkout was equally as lovely. Very large, clean, comfortable room. Location is pretty good. Probably wouldn't consider it as "Southbank" as Google would suggest. But still walking distance to most things."
