Hotels Near Indooroopilly Secrets & River Walk (Self-Guided walking tour) by FreeGuides.com in Indooroopilly

We were not aware of the late check in procedures but thankfully the staff (Dana) reached out and sorted it out for us, otherwise we might have been locked out! The hotel,building and room looks clean and new. Although it's located right above Taringa train station, we did not hear any sounds from the trains at all during our stay. Covered parking is available for a fee or there is usually street parking. If you are checking in, there is a loading zone next to the hotel. As the hotel is on a steep slope, might be worthwhile parking as near you can to unload. Although there is no housekeeping services for short stays, the front desk are helpful with any requests always. Overall, a great affordable find for a new-ish hotel and minutes away from the CBD, UQ and westfield indooroopilly.

We checked in Monday 25th July and checked out Monday 1st August this was a 7-night stay. We stayed in apartment 15 which faces onto Jephson street, Toowong. Toowong is actually somewhere we lived several years ago and back then - 2014 - we were quite close to this complex so we have some previous experience of this immediate area. It is a very good spot to be placed; plenty of public transport, car parking in complex, shopping at nearby Toowong Village Complex, a ‘GoodLife Gym’ (which if you ask management nicely may let you have a very reasonably priced short-term daily / weekly entrance pass – my wife did this), coffee shops and so on. Good spot to be. Just across the road is 'The Gunshop Cafe' - we had a breakfast there really, really recommend. Toowong Central Apartments are an older set of 28 apartments BUT the welcome, the hosting, the housekeeping and in particular the unit we stayed in was fresh and crisp. Please note: this is a busy area at times so you will experience traffic noise (peak hours) and this was the case in apartment 15; for us however it was not an issue – we have traveled extensively and when our heads hit the (very comfortable bed and pillows, in this case) we sleep like logs. If, however, you are a light sleeper speak in advance to manager Jack (who is very approachable) and see if one of the other units might be available and perhaps better suit your needs. I am confident he will do his best for you if he can. Check-in time was 1.00pm; we arrived sometime prior to check-in but on-site manager Jack kindly took our luggage to store whilst my wife went (via ‘Good-life Gym’) to an early morning business meeting; I went out for coffee and breakfast – lots of choice very close by. Worth noting that on-site manager Jack has been here for the last ten years; he is still, self-evidently, keeping a firm hand on his leadership and management duties even during these difficult Covid / post Covid times when hospitality has really struggled. Jack is, in our short stay here, doing a good job in providing safe, serviceable, comfortable and welcoming apartment type accommodation. Thank you – Jack! When finally we were checking in, the first thing I heard was my wife exclaim from the bathroom: ‘Home-made hand soap! How lovely!’ Good start! Apartment 15 is very well presented; the unit is in really good condition beautifully clean and really welcoming. Very strong (free) Wi-Fi and reliable connection throughout our stay. The double bed is very comfortable. The bathroom is in excellent condition (looks fairly new) and water pressure from shower excellent. Hot water plentiful with no loss of heat if enjoying an extended shower. Comfortable sofa, comfortable table and chairs both inside and outside (on balcony); all serviceable and well maintained. Kitchen area beautiful clean on arrival and all is in place to make our stay a pleasant one. Fridge good and cold. Great lighting throughout this unit. Loved the bedside lamps. Ther

We booked this accommodation overlooking the river as very close to Wesley Hospital. I spoke to Kerrin direct on making the booking and then met him on check in. He was very professional and helpful. I requested a late check out which he assisted with, but depends on the day, plus arranged for continued parking the following day, which was very helpful. The bathroom, bedroom and lounge area was clean and everything was in good working order. I read one or two poor reviews, which were untrue in our experience, due to good value for money, we were pleasantly surprised. For the people who made poor reviews on these apartments, they should consider paying the price for a 5 star accommodation rate elsewhere, as you pay for what you get and these apartments were definitely good value and clean. We will return if we ever require to visit the area again. Thank you.

The after hours check-in is terrible. I had to phone to get a code to get into the reception area. Then my reservation coded didn't work and had to call again. Then I realise that I need a physical ID to scan to complete the check in, which I didn't have. Luckily the person I was on the phone with could help move the check in forward, which was another 3-4 steps. When I got to my room there were marks on the walls, the couch is heavily stained, as were some places on the carpet. The cleaning job was average. The only good things about this place are the location and the bed was comfortable.

Fantastic - really great location, near the convention centre, the ferry and shopping area. Very modern and clean, great to have a place to make a piece of toast and cup of tea in the morning. Would highly recommend to anyone staying more than a few days in Brisbane.

Recommend if you are looking for a clean and quality place to stay and are a budget traveller. This yha has a very high standard compared to others. It is more like a youth hotel with bunk beds rather than a backpackers place. You also meet travellers of all ages, families and youth groups around the place. The rooms are super tidy and serviced daily, spacious luggage lockers that fit a large suitcase (fantastic!) and are light filled with aircon or windows to be opened. The kitchen is very big, nice rooftop terrace with city views and pool area. Tv lounge and soon it’s own co working hub which I think is a great addition to the concept. Free luggage storage for guests and friendly and helpful staff.

very clean and tidy - well equipped kitchen and pleasant helpful staff

An absolute nightmare to find and check in ! $200 “security deposit “ that they hold onto for so long is boarder line criminal . It’s more than the cost of the studio ! No sofa. I won’t be returning

Recently stayed in President Brookes' double bed room for two nights. I was very happy with the stay. The kitchen has a fully equipped kitchen, dining table and balcony, which offers views of the city. Everything was clean, well kept, the reception staff was friendly and helpful. Parking was a bit tight but no big problem. I would definitely stay again.

This motel is not far outside the BNE Local Government Area and was a convenient spot for us as we transitted BNE Airport overnight going to rural QLD whilst the city was in lockdown. It is clean. Convenient. Close to the main road. A good price and an OK proposition for families. At the time it was a pricey proposition for a family but understandable given school hols and so close to the Gold Coast. Management are friendly and patient. Whilst we are unlikely need to transit this area again, this would be my choice of we did.
