We stay here every time my husband has a hospital visit. It’s clean, spacious and within walking distance to the hospital. The staff are friendly and accommodating and always check in by phone the day before. Breakfast is simple but very convenient and much appreciated. I would highly recommend this hotel if you have someone in hospital or just staying on the Northside of Brisbane.

Very conveniently close to 2 hospitals . Most rooms very quiet .Some rooms could do with a bathroom update. But overall rooms have everything you need and are comfortable. Prices fluctuate greatly if there is something on in the area. Check in is usually quick and staff are friendly and helpful . Large shopping centre close by .

Absolutely loved the staff member in reception the night of my booking. She was amazing and kind through checking us in while my special needs son was tired/overwhelmed and having a meltdown. She really did make checking in a nice experience with her positive personality and ability to get us checked in fast. Hands down amazing, your lucky to have her! Thank you

Stayed due to partner having surgery at St Vincents Hospital, only 100m away. Staff suggested I park my car in the visitors car park prior to, and after, check out and offered use of the lounge. Being able to obtain cereal and fruit for breakfast a bonus. lovely accommodation at a reasonable price.

This place was excellent except for the noise. Being right next door to hospital it is not sound proof and ambulances woke us all night along with hooning . I dont recommend if your a light sleeper . Such a shame as the property itself is wonderful.
