Hotels near Roma Street Railway Station, Brisbane

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.

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.

I stay here when in Brisbane - it's conveniently close to Roma Street Station, I can check in no matter how late I arrive, and I always get a good nights sleep. The breakfast in the morning fills me for the day, and the staff have always been friendly and super helpful.

Quick overnight stay. Close to everything we needed. Neat and tidy. Amazing customer service. Great breakfast with real coffee! A huge thank you to housekeeping for finding my jewellery box and handing it in to reception. Your honesty and integrity mean the absolute world to me. Well done 👏

An older Sofitel compared to some others I stay at as a an Accor Platinum member but my experiences have all been quite postive when I stay here. Staff as usual were very friendly and helpful which is what brings me back to Accot hotels, and the fact my room is almost always ready early. Quite a large hotel with a few different options for food and drinks. The breakfast is quite good, alot of options and plenty of room to sit and relax. The gym is on the smallish side but nice pool and amenities. My King room was quite dated badly in need of a renovation but its quite big and the bed was comfortable. Parking can be a bit difficult at times. The location is very convenient if you are coming by train and its only 5 minutes walk into the CBD. Overall a good hotel and experience.

This was definitely not value for money. For the price paid the service was unacceptable. We arrived at 2am in the morning with my elderly mother, not one staff member helped with our bags either out of our car or up to our room! When we entered our room the tea/coffee facilities had not been cleaned from the previous guest nor refilled. When dining at the restaurant the waitress wrote down our order incorrectly, they came out with octopus instead of gnocchi and asked me if I'd be happy to eat the octopus instead. I declined, then my mother and I dined at completely different times, with not so much as an apology. Before arriving our flight from Indonesia was delayed on the tarmac so I got on the ”live chat” on the hotels direct website to advise them. The live chat worker told me she couldn't inform the front desk of my late arrival and instead I would need to call the hotel....how ridiculous. I would never recommend this hotel to anyone. We moved after three nights to a similarly located hotel for almost half the price and had one of the best hotels stay ever. Don't waste your money here, it is 3 star at best!

Loved our stay at Stamford Plaza and we were there for about 2 weeks in a Suite. Huge rooms seperate lounge, huge dressing room and bathroom and the view was spectacular. The position is fabulous and you just walk out to the riverfront and all the great restaurants are there. Will stay again if we travel to Brisbane.

The newly-opened voco is a delightful hotel hidden inside an otherwise slightly dreary-looking building. From the outside it looks a tad unappealing, but inside it's been thoroughly rennovated and is quite snazzy. Reception are friendly and the foyer breathes modern. The corridors to the rooms are quite dark and nothing special, but inside, the rooms have been re-built to look and feel quite luxurious for business-traveller standards. Breakfast was an excellent spread and the view from the high-floored rooms are quite nice. One thing to note: there's currently (July '23) major roadworks taking place one block away down North Quay, the road out the front of the hotel. There was no noise in the hotel but traffic out the front of the hotel moves at a snail's pace as a result. For taxi drop-off/pickups, ask for the corner of George St and Ann St. It's a 100m walk and you'll save lots of time.

I wish I had of read these reviews prior to booking a room. I wanted something close to the airport and at last minute this was all that was left. I don't consider $148 a cheap room for 1 night, a shared backpackers room would of been cleaner. I got a text after booking and paying asking me to enter more details again including credit card, it said to upload a photo, didn't say upload your licence so therefor never sent the room code, when I rang I got a lady I could not understand who explained I didn't need to worry because I could do it at reception, when we arrived at reception the lady told me I MUST DO IT OR I CAN'T STAY!! 1hr later and 2 others in reception having the same issues we were given a room code, the room smelt like a dead wet dog, we were on ground level the curtain was see through and didn't block any of the elements out, the shower was that small you could only fit in one leg at a time.... prior to arriving I asked if they had a laundry on site I was told yes to only be told once checked in the washing machine is broken.. NEVER EVER AGAIN.

Recommend if you are looking for a clean and quality place to stay and are a budget traveller. This yha has a very high standard compared to others. It is more like a youth hotel with bunk beds rather than a backpackers place. You also meet travellers of all ages, families and youth groups around the place. The rooms are super tidy and serviced daily, spacious luggage lockers that fit a large suitcase (fantastic!) and are light filled with aircon or windows to be opened. The kitchen is very big, nice rooftop terrace with city views and pool area. Tv lounge and soon it’s own co working hub which I think is a great addition to the concept. Free luggage storage for guests and friendly and helpful staff.
