Top Riverfront Hotel Reviews

Annerley Motor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"It was good! You get exactly what you pay for and it's clean. Only 'complaint' is paper thin walls"

W Brisbane

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is unique. it is luxurious yet very whimsical. Our room was spacious, well appointed and very quirky. Walking in made me smile. The view of the river and the skyline of Brisbane was fantastic and the last thing I saw before falling asleep every night. However, I found the hallways to be very dark and depressing as the walls were painted black. It did not however impacted my experience and enjoyment. The breakfast, which was included in our rate, was the best we had in this 3 weeks vacation, out of the 9 hotels we stayed in. There were so many options, including a juice machine where you could make your own juice (I chose carrot!). The staff at the hotel were super friendly, helpful and efficient. The location was great as we could walk around the CBD to all the places we wanted to see. We will stay again when in Brisbane."

Benson Court Motel

8/10 Good

"I only stayed overnight but the room was very clean and tidy. Reception was pleasant and obliging. The room was well equipped with toaster, kettle, microwave so suitable if you wanted to eat in the room. The position of the hotel is a bit tricky, being on a corner of a very busy street, but I worked it out., I would definitely use it again if I'm in the area."

Moorooka Motel

8/10 Good

"Room was very clean, single bed however needs revamping from a cut up double bunk , struggled reaching the AC remote and only 2 cups and glasses for 3 people. Very helpful supplying us with cutlery for our meal. They are working on doing the property up. Traffic very noisy. Yes I would stay there again when needing to be at QCH."
