“Great stay”

This was a great hotel for location and comfort. Modern and clean. I would definitely stay here again. Restaurant was a bit pricey with good quality food but I needed a meal that would fill me up and the serving was not very big!

“Compact room with all the amenities!!!”

We were very surprised by the room when we opened the door. It was bright and airy despite its compactness. It was very modern and clean. We loved the large walk in shower. When we set out to discover Brisbane we found ourselves within walking distance of the ferries, buses, trains and shopping areas. We highly recommend!! definetly 4 star accomodation

“Modern chic hotel”

This hotel is very modern and chic, the room was small but great for two people staying there. Close to Queen St Mall, and many other things. The breakfast was great and the staff are extraordinary!

“Have allready reccomended it”

Excellent hotel only downside bar and restaurant not open on weekends otherwise fantastic .Best value for money we have had in Australia and we have stayed all over.

“Nice overall but needs to improve lighting”

This is a new hotel and the bedside lamps were not installed in our room yet but since we did not spend much time in the room is was not a big issue. The room was small but all we needed. There is a large flat screen tv with interactive info on the hotel and Brisbane including activities in the city. The restaurant/bar was a great place to spend some time in the late afternoon having a couple of drinks and appetizers. The wireless internet did not work in our room and the hookup was only about a foot long but the front desk supplied us with a cord long enough to move onto the bed and sit to use computer. Nice tea and coffee selection provided. The lights in the bathroom need to be stronger, not enough light and more shelf space needed in bathroom. There is an ipod player/alarm clock in the room but no instructions on how to use it. We had a balcony that was great to sit on and the room was quiet even facing the street on the 3rd floor. Easy walk to shopping and food.

“Good stopover”

We spent 2 nights at The Portal to recover from the long flight from the Uk before continuing our travelling around Australia. On arrival which was about 11am there was no problem checking in early & the room was available. Reception staff were more than helpful & always able to answer our questions. Rooms although on the small side were fully equipped and VERY clean. We even had a small balcony which was just big enough for 2! It was just a short walk(5-10mins) to the city & river. We enjoyed our couple days in Brisbane & was nice to come back to the comfort of our room after busy days sightseeing.

“Recommend”

The rooms are small but all you need when typically you are out all day. Clean and very comfortable beds and pillows. It is located in a nice, quiet neighborhood and not too far from shopping and dining(the way back is uphill though). One of the most comfortable places I stayed while in Australia and one of the cheapest.

“Would stay again.”

Rooms small, very adequate if only using it as a base to sleep, shower etc. Good value. Close to centre of Brisbane and transport nearby.

“Great Location, great hotel.”

Lovely, helpful staff. Short 5 min walk into Queen st. Breakfast at he restuarant was amazing. Disappointed it wasn't open for dinner. Really enjoyed our stay here.
