Hotels Near Hercules Street Park in Brisbane

Nice new hotel, recommend it to my friends. People are nice to help. Lots guests but still managed well. Few safeguards at front door, that’s not usual in AUS hotels, but good.

the location is quiet, it's good for the driver has a free parking, just a pity for missing to go to the roof top to see the night time of the city view.

We stayed here the night before leaving on a cruise that was leaving from the International Cruise Terminal. The main reason we chose this hotel was its close proximity to Roma Street Station as we caught the train from the airport. While it is close to the train station it is located at the top of a reasonable hill and it took a bit of effort to navigate the way to the top, apart from the effort. Several escalators/lifts and then a steep path with no real directions on which way to go. I thought I would be able to see the hotel to give me an idea which way but had to resort to Google Maps to find the way. Unfortunately we were on an early flight into Brisbane so as it was 09:30AM I was not expecting our room to be ready but just needed to store our bags so we good do some exploring. As expected, our room was not ready but the guy behind the counter checked me in, stored our bags and advised that the hotel was busy and our room would not be ready until about 02:00PM. No worries we will be back. We arrived back at 01:00PM and our room was still not ready and waited in the foyer till 02:00PM as previously discussed. Reception gave me our keys and we proceeded to our room on Level 1, or so I thought……..room card would not let me use the lift. Back to reception to have the card re-coded. On entry to our room, it was reasonably spacious and looked clean and reasonably comfortable. Décor a bit dated, but functional. We had a rather large balcony but we could not use it as there was no furniture so the balcony was wasted. Bathroom was small but functional, bit dated but appeared clean. It was only after we used the toilet several times that we noticed water on the floor. We ignored it for quite a while as we thought we had spilt water on the floor but it was not till the next morning that I realised it was coming from under the toilet. I reported it to reception on checkout. As we were tired from our early start we chose to order room service. While we knew how much it was going to cost it was very expensive. Two hamburgers and chips over $70. A bit steep, but as we were so tired we paid so we did not have to go out. The hamburgers were good by the way, but still way too expensive. Overall, this hotel was OK, but the room was supposed to be a superior room. OK. I would hate to be in a Standard Room………..as the room was pretty average for a Superior. After reading some of the other reviews the price we paid was fair and the location is good, just not when you have to push two big suitcases that we were taking on a cruise up the hill from the station. PS. It cost us $73 in the taxi to get to the Cruise Terminal.

The Soho Hotel in Brisbane is definitely great value for what you pay. The rooms might be a bit small, but they've got everything you need: a fridge, desk, comfy bed, and a decent bathroom. It's also nice and quiet. Having the free city bus right outside is a huge plus. No lift, which was a bit of a hassle for me with my back issue, but that's on me to check next time. The hosts are top-notch – super friendly and welcoming, probably the best we've met during our three months of travel. Considering the price, you're getting a lot for your money here.

Convenient location in Brisbane city. Reception provided great service, was polite and welcoming. We had a warm welcome and a quick, easy and fuss-free check in process. Thank you Vania! (Hope I got her name right) Amazing view from the Sky Lounge located on the 36th floor. However the apartment was slightly dirty. We put up the sign to make up our room but it was not made at all, even when the housekeeping staff was cleaning the room next to ours when we left. We left the hotel to go out in the morning and when we returned at night the ”make up the room” sign was still on our door and the room was exactly as we left it when we went out. Room wasn't made, toiletries weren't replenished.

Wasn’t planning on staying here, but was bumped to this accomodation at the last minute by Clix. So a bit disappointed as we were staying at one of their other buildings which was closer to restaurants etc and had a better pool. The apartment was clean and looked out over the hills and river, the bed was comfortable. Could have done with more kitchen utensils like a baking tray for starters. Stove had a wok burner but no wok or fry pan. Tiny wash basin with no side bench so had to put stuff on floor. Shower door handle had coroded and needs replacing. Disappointed in the pool, even though technically out doors it was all under cover thus no sun light so a bit chilly as it acted as a wind tunnel. Also was on 22nd floor and could still hear trains that ran past building.

The hotel is in a great position. Right on Southbank and a two minute walk to Fish Lane. Parking is first in and we could only see maybe 7 guest parks, all taken. All photos on the apartment website and Booking.com show a variety of rooms. Nothing could have prepared us for the horrible room we were given. Definitely not shown in the photos. The lounge was a disgusting fold up futon with an ill fitting cover over it. The vacuum cleaner was wall mounted right in the middle of the tiny lounge area? Fortunately the check in receptionist was able to find another room for us for which we are very grateful so make sure you get what you paid for and was expecting. The cutlery and glasses were all dirty. Reception closed at 3pm? and no reception on Sunday. There is a great little bottle shop and gin bar next door

Danny was very professional, friendly, welcoming and helpful during my booking via phone and my check in and check out. 5 stars for customer service ***** The cleaners were friendly and helpful when I needed a bath plug and even gave me some complementary bath salts. The room was very clean and tidy, you can tell the cleaning staff care. Well done Best Western!

Fantastic - really great location, near the convention centre, the ferry and shopping area. Very modern and clean, great to have a place to make a piece of toast and cup of tea in the morning. Would highly recommend to anyone staying more than a few days in Brisbane.

I currently live on the Sunshine Coast and drive to Brisbane once a week to work 3 days in our Milton office and stay here when I can because of the location. It’s a great place to stay as it’s reasonably priced (circa $100 a night), has undercover car parking, and is a 5 minute walk to work and various restaurants & eateries on Park Road. There is a decent Chinese restaurant (China Sea) attached to the hotel which I have dined at a few times and an excellent Thai massage place (Royal Paradise Thai Spa) on Park Road which I discovered & now go to. It is a $15 Uber ride to QPAC (I went & saw a Queensland Theatre production on my last visit) and I walk up to the Palace Barracks and catch a movie sometimes. The rooms are clean & comfortable & have all you need for a 3 night stay. Some of the rooms have basic smart TVs so you can watch Netflix. Wifi is free but very hit & miss (often slow or not working) so I often just use Telstra data. I never actually seen anyone at reception due to the fact I arrive late on Sundays & reception opens after I have left for work, however the phone check in process where you access keys from a safe works perfectly fine. Overall I recommend Central Cosmo & I’ll be back very soon (tomorrow in fact!).
