Best Western Airport 85 Motel

We stayed here at the end of our 2 week holiday before heading back to Tasmania. The overall experience was warm and friendly. The rooms were clean and there was even a pool to cool down after our busy day. Would stay here again! less

When we arrived there was no booking because booking .com had not sent through booking details . The room was clean but the air con was noisy and we where unable to get foxtel on the TV .Staff where friendly and helpful less

We are a family with young kids and needed a place to stay close to the city to attend an appointment. We booked a family room which was very comfortable, clean, spacious and had everything we needed. There is a supermarket, shops, restaurant’s, airport, train station and racecourse all close by. The kids loved the pool area, it was nice and shaded and had lovely gardens through the motel complex. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. Happy to go above and beyond to help or answer any questions. A light continental breakfast is included which is a bonus. I highly recommend for anyone wanting somewhere close to the airport or city to stay. Or even just a get away. Great for any type of travellers. less

Found the Hotel through Booking.com but due to the late notice if the booking and the time of night decided to call the Hotel direct Reception is not manned 24 hours and eventually my call was answered, I enquired about availability and if they’d offer the same rate as Booking.com. The receptionist said it may be a couple of dollars but wouldn’t give me a firm price and asked for a credit card to secure the room, this I did due to the late hour and my tiredness after a long day traveling. I booked a taxi from Brisbane airport to the hotel and on arrival at checkin was presented with a room rate of a $165 way above the advertised rate on booking.com of $89 so more the a few dollars extra that the receptionist had alluded to during our telephone conversation. I challenged the rate and was told that the room on Booking.com wasn’t availability which I found odd as it was only 15 minutes ago and it was past midnight I feel the Hotel took advantage of the situation and the late hour. I would advise tired and weary travels to avoid this very low budget Hotel and greedy franchise owners. less

I found this Motel warm and welcoming. The driveway, garden and grounds were well kept, the staff were friendly and the rooms were clean. Complimentary breakfast included fresh fruit, yoghurt and toast. It was in a good location directly opposite a train station, only a few minutes drive to the airport and an easy walk to local restaurants and the river ferry. Overall, this was excellent budget accomodation, well recommended. less
