We recently stayed at the Stamford Plaza for a long weekend break. We chose it largely because of the location, and we were not disappointed. The hotel was within easy walking distance - about 5 minutes downhill - of the central train station (an easy ride in from the airport), easy walk to the shopping centre (between the hotel and... more

This was our third stay at this hotel as we like the location and having breakfast in the outside marquee by the river. I must say though that apart from the above features it is really quite an unremarkable place to stay and breakfasts at AUD 42 at wekends and AUD38 during the week are not really good value unless... more

The room was stunning and very comfortable and the views amazing. Housekeeping let the hotel down, of the 5 days we stayed there, the housekeeper came twice and it wasn't really a... more

I booked this hotel because people attending the same meeting in Brisbane were going to stay there. The location is lovely - right on a nice stretch of the river - but I was totally frustrated by being unable to go online with my Mac Air laptop. The hotel website lists "wireless internet access" on the first line of its... more

Perfectly located, with many excellent restaurants within a few minutes walk. Staff and service are top notch. If you are a runner/walker, the paths along the river and through the botanical gardens offer miles of options. Search the internet for excellent prices. more
