Excellence on all levels ❤️
Pros:

This property provides luxury with a super cool retro but modern vibe! Amazing attention from the staff - so helpful and really nice friendly crew. The location can’t be beaten with incredible shopping and dining all around. We don’t think we could honestly stay anywhere else in Brisbane as I know we would be disappointed compared to the Calile. We are back on the 12th of May - unfortunately only for one night - but can’t wait!

Very comfortable excellent room and facilities and exceptional staff.
Pros:

Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful

Cons:

Not being able to use the Calile App because I booked through booking.com. If I had know this were to be the case I would have booked directly with the Calile
Also as our room was directly adjacent to a venue for weddings we did find it quite obtrusive.

Just all hype.
Pros:

Just an average hotel. My room was dark and the decor is underwhelming and dated. Beige tile with seafoam green walls. Feels like you’re sleeping in an operating room. The shower has no door which I hate. Lets all the steam out into the main area.
