Best Western Plus Gregory Terrace Brisbane

I discovered this place by misadventure. My wife was hospitalised for 6 nights and I was unable to continue at my city apartment. A criteria was it had to be close to St Andrews hospital. While there were a couple of options closer - one was booked out and the other would have been quite expensive. This motel is ~ 30 years old however maintenance has generally been kept up to scratch. The setting is very quiet -apart from 2 giggly girls who arrived home, slamming doors (next door) at 3.00 am on Sunday morning with zero thought for any body. They lit up (breaching no smoking policy anywhere on the property and chattered on until I stepped on to the balcony -a few choice words and the problem was solved. The Manager, next day, pointed out that 24 hour help was a phone call away. The cafe/restaurant was open for breakfast,lunch and dinner as well as coffee/snacks all day. The menu is limited but quite tasty. The room we had (facing Gregory Terrace) was comfortable (not large) and quite functional. Direct taxi phone was available in the foyer. The rooms at the back of the property have the city views. The staff were multi skilled and helpful and friendly. We will definitely go back to this property next year (A nice way of escaping the Melbourne winter). less

With all hotels in this price range there are always pros and cons. I did not mind the place but it had problems. Pros: nice spacious room with a great view, big tv, free underground carpark, wonderful restaurant with delicious breakfast, great friendly staff and nice large bath sheets. Cons: free wifi was flaky and useless in the room and works sometimes in the restaurant, shower head was leaky and loose, pin pad to control the door to the underground carpark requires 2 people in the car otherwise the driver will have to get out of the car to key in code and the pillows were too soft (both of them). The pros far outweigh the cons. The location of the hotel is quite convenient too. less

We stayed in Room #4 on the lower ground level. The room was a bit tight for 3, but it has city views. The toom was clean. The queen sized bed was firm enough for a good night sleep. The bathroom was a bit tired. Staff were nice, friendly & helpful. The location is not the best. Walking downhill to the CBD takes about 20 mins. To avoid walking uphill back to the hotel from the CBD, one of the options is take bus #321 from Queens St Stop #58 in the city, but it's infrequent (every 30-60 mins) & unreliable. less

Three couples, three clean, comfortable rooms, and a weekend to celebrate a dear friends’ birthday. Of course, comfortable beds made for an easy Saturday afternoon “nanna nap” prior to heading out to party - we’re not quite as young as we used to be. We were greeted by friendly staff who were happy to hold our luggage - we were on a very early flight into Brisbane - and that allowed us to head out to lunch and a tour of Brisbane. We needed a short extension lead for an appliance we bought with us - no problem, power board found. A good iron and ironing board helped us look our best as we headed out. Breakfast and coffee on Sunday were just what we needed. The three egg omelette prompted my wife to pay compliments to the chef - and she’s use to top quality fare in and around our home in Sydney. My poached eggs with bernaise sauce and smoked salmon was just perfect. Although a fleeting trip to Brisbane, the Best Western Plus on Gregory Terrace is where we always stay in Brisbane. less
