Hôtel fortement recommendable à Brisbane
Pros:

Petit déjeuner buffet au top.
Emplacement : même si ce n'est pas indiqué (on s'est fait avoir les premiers jours) il y a un escalator dans l'hôtel qui amène directement à Central Station et Anzac Square plutôt que faire le tour par la rue.
Chambres spacieuses et confortables.

Cons:

Problème de coordination entre les équipes de la réception et de ménage.
Le service des chambres se fait assez tard : parfois après 14h... pas top quand on revient pour se poser après une excursion matinale.

Pros:

The staff were friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The room was in need of refurbishment , the bathroom was very dated eg we’re used to soft closing toilets.
There were patch up silicon sections in the bathroom which were more than obvious.
In addition the carpet was long overview for renewal.

Below expectation
Pros:

Lovely lobby, but rooms (especially bathroom) was quite tired looking. Gym had decent cardio equipment but not not enough weights & only 1 bench. Outdoor jacuzzi needs to be repaired & there was no service by the pool. Given the standard of Sofitels I’ve stayed in, this hotel was under par.

Cons:

Bathroom very dated
