This is certainly a decent enough hotel, and while I didn't find anything wrong with it, I didn't find anything particularly great to recommend either. The rooms are fine, decent size and decor, but not huge and nothing outstanding. Beds were quite nice. Service was fine. We didn't try the restaurants, but the room service menu was quite limited. The... More

Dear jbradfor, Lovely to hear you enjoyed Roma Park. We think it's great being able to step over the road and find yourself in lush, green surroundings, and you're right - it's a great park for the kids to run around in. Hopefully the weather was nice when you stayed. The pool at our hotel is perfect for the kids... More

I stayed one night here on business and found the location average, the room was small and old with modern fixtures. The service was good but I really enjoyed lunch in the restaurant. I ordered room service for dinner but it was disappointing and cold. Many better hotels in Brisbane which I will try next time. More

Hi louie_slippers, We're glad to hear you enjoyed lunch in the restaurant – we have been working hard on the menu at Gazebo Bar & Restaurant, and take a lot of pride in our service. Sorry to hear you weren't happy with the location. We love it because it's a short walk to the CBD, so you can be close... More

My husband and i stayed for one night. The interior appearance of the hotel looks modern but the room sizes werent all that and the balcony was very dispointing. The hotel is clearly one that was built many years ago (1960's-1980's?) and has had a recent refurb. The shower needs attention as the water leaks from under the glass panel... More

Hi Hayles10, Thanks for your review. Yes, the hotel has had a recent refurb – we like to keep things looking fresh and new for our guests! Sorry to hear you were disappointed with the balcony, I wonder why you weren't happy with it? We actually really love the balconies, and often have guests raving about the views. The walk... More

The foyer is lovely and spacious but that is where ot finished. The room is small with very limited closet space to hang clothes and even less draw space to put clothes. So they had to stay in the suitcase. The abthroom is even smaller. You have to colose the bathroom door to get into the shower which floods the... More

I booked this place in a pinch. Expected more at $290 a night but it felt cheap in terms of the fittings and the lift stank. They missed my wake up call and when I told the woman at the desk, she didn't even apologize. There's a phone in the room but no indication how to call for service. Amateur... More

Regardless, there is no excuse and you are definitely owed a big apology! All of our phones have a menu on the lower left hand corner for our service numbers. Maybe we need to make the... More

I attended an event at the Hotel Urban today Sunday the 30/10/11. We were asked to pay for our buffet lunch $20 as soon as we arrived so that the hotel restaurant would know how many were eating and the amount of food required. We were also told that lunch would be between 12 and 1pm... My disgust is that... More

My wife and I stayed three nights at the Hotel Urban Brisbane and enjoyed ourselves very much. The hotel and rooms are nicely appointed and very comfortable.

Hotel has had a superficial revamp but the cracks are clear to see. Room was quite shabby, water flowed out of the shower and across the bathroom like a river. Balcony door was so old and worn out I could barely open it and housekeeping was random at best. Room completely lacking in any information, so I had no idea... More
