Great location and very comfortable.
Pros:

Excellent location
Effective air con in room
Breakfast was good

Cons:

I would have liked a real coffee machine option available at breakfast .
A coffee shop cafe within the hotel would have also been nice with coffee/ cake or light sacks available throughout the day , so you can sit in the foyer and have a coffee.

Stamford is a great place to stay when visiting Brisbane.
Pros:

Amazing location, right on the river. Huge room with magic views. Very friendly and attentive staff.

Cons:

Had a Storey Bridge suite. Could do with a splash of paint, very dated. Bed sheet had a hole in it. Arm chair had a broken arm. Television in the bathroom didn’t work. $49 on top of the room rate for parking

Schön, aber leider etwas negativ geprägt
Pros:

Prinzipiell war das Frühstück ok; allerdings hat uns die Möblierung für Breakfast sehr überrascht! Sie wurde häufig geändert, mit hohen Tischen u Barhockern, was wir sehr ungemütlich empfanden!
Die Doppelfunktion resultierend zum Abendlichen „La Boca“ Restaurant!! Personal änderte häufig schon vor den Endzeiten der jeweiligen Nutzung das Interieur!! Sehr negativ, man fühlte sich „rausgeschmissen“!

Cons:

Unser gebuchte Flug wurde gecancelt und obwohl ein E-Mail rechtzeitig und nachweisbar übersandt wurde, erhielten wir seitens des Rezeptions Manager kein Entgegenkommen u mussten die 1 Nächtigung bezahlen! Einem zweiten Gast erging es ähnlich! Wie geht man hier mit Kundenfreundlichkeit um? Wir vermissten sie sehr !!! Haben daher an inseren Aufenthalt einen bitteren Beigeschmack bei unseren Erinnerungen an die Stadt!
