“I noted this property serves the dual purpose of leisure and business quite well, being close to both South Bank Parklands and the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre. The rooftop terrace promises panoramic city views, while the on-site dining, including the award-winning Bacchus Restaurant, provides a touch of elegance. In my opinion, it seems a strategically positioned and amenity-rich choice for diverse travel needs.”

The gym has good equipment and size. After my workout, I really enjoyed the sauna. The pool, though, was smaller than I expected.
