Bowen Hills Hotels with Wi-Fi

The staff at these premises were impossible to contact by phone. Finally returned and email to say we had to email copies of photo I.d and photos of our credit card before they would give us after hours check in details. Helloooo, this is 2024 no way are you holding me to ransome like that. Cancelled 3 nights and booked with a hotel in the cbd for the same cost who has 24bhr reception with standard business practices. I'm not expecting 24 hour reception everywhere I stay, but you need to wake up to the scams on today's world and not ask for guests to compromise themselves like that. I would have been more than happy to drop into reception on the morning and attend to security requirements. Not impressed and won't consider this accommodation in the future.

Great hotel close to the Valley but also far enough to be away from the noise, great cafes close by. Room was modern, clean and comfortable. Bed was amazing, I have a bad back and slept so well. All staff helpful and efficient. We will stay again

Our sleepover stay was a very pleasant experience from the time we checked in until we checked out. The service was very helpful and thorough and our apartment was more than we hoped for. It was a hot day and the staff were very thoughtful to put the air-conditioning on before we arrived. As we had just travelled for 30 hrs the room was on the quiet side and very comfortable so we really appreciated this gesture. There are many cafes and restaurants in walking distance, also an IGA for any groceries needs as the apartment has a full kitchen and appliances. We will definitely stay there again when visiting and hopefully make more use of the enormous rooftop BBQ and entertainment area. With Gratitude 🙏

We have at the Annex Apartments on 2 occasions now as hubby had appointments at the Royal Brisbane Hospital, no need to use the car as the hospital was across the road. They are very clean apartments with everything you need, stack are very friendly and helpful. There is a Vietnamese restaurant down stairs that has a great Pho on its menu and around the corner is a great cafe for breakfast and lunch, highly recommend.

We stayed for 5 nights over Christmas period, I would say the apartment was between average to very good. Size wise, the two bedroom apartment was ideal for 2 adults and one child, had a separate laundry room and two bathrooms (no bath tub). Kitchen whilst good was lacking in utensils and other cooking items and basic things like oven mitts. We had to either keep washing up or running the dishwasher constantly. The apartment whilst good size wise and having what you needed furniture wise was in desperate need of a good deep clean. Around the bathroom was grotty, the washing machine was also a bit dirty as was around the seals of the rubbish bin, dishwasher and fridge. The underneath of beds and around skirting looked like hadn’t seen a vacuum in quite some time. Noise was also an issue, we could hear above and beside us. Parking was available in a secure underground area and easy walk to train station, places to eat and shops. Pool area was good and our daughter happily used it. For the price it was ok but we would only stay again if the price was right.

LOCATION Very close to the Brisbane Royal & Women’s Hospital. ROOM The hotel has a number of apartment blocks. The corridors are dark and quite depressing, but inside the rooms are a different story. Our apartment had a comfy living room, two double bedrooms and a kitchen, with a kettle, microwave, fridge freezer, a washer / drier, and an iron and ironing board. It also had a balcony, not that we found the time to sit out there! FACILITIES We never used any of the other facilities. STAFF The reception staff were helpful. OTHER Can I suggest that Oaks reconsider the message card placed in the room that asks that when you leave, you dispose of your rubbish down the garbage shute near the lifts, as our block had no such facility. We ended up handing it to reception! I also have to comment that this was the only place we stayed where the cleanliness was questionable. The kitchen surfaces and drawers were sticky, and the carpets didn't look like they'd been properly hoovered.

Let's start with the booking process. I used ********** and thought it was all done. Noo...got an message that i needed to supply a copy of my licence, then a 'selfie' to be sure it was really me. Got that sorted, then had to pay a security deposit - not unreasonable, until it was in US dollars. Why?? Not happy that none of this stuff was mentioned on the ********** site. Anyway was too lazy to cancel and book elsewhere so got past this. Thankfully there was a very helpful person answering calls! Tech entry system thankfully supplemented on request by a key fob. Lovely new apartment, two bedroom two bathroom. Well equipped and very clean. Nice towels. Comfy beds. Couch average. Great rooftop pool area if you're so inclined. Good parking. A noisy location, not helped by tradies hire place nextdoor and busy roads. Very handy to a rail station and walking distance to Breakfast Creek hotel (great steak. booking may be needed). I hope housekeeping doesn't have a huge supply of 'who gives a crap' toilet paper...it's crap!
