Nice place in a good location, soaps and clean. Main issue is that it's overlooking a busy road, and the windows are hopeless in terms of sound proofing

The staff were wonderful and accommodating. Walkable distance to South Bank parklands and dining and entertainment options. Room would benefit from renovations - seemed pretty worn out, sound from the next room carried so we could hear other guest talking on phone/watching tv and having shower quite clearly. Overall staff and location compensated any inconvenience during the short stay.

Always a great place to stay!

We chose Central Hillcrest because we were attending a concert at Brisbane's Riverstage, and it is a short walk to the venue. We have stayed at Hillcrest a number of times over the years and are never disappointed. The staff at Reception were friendly and courteous, the room immaculate, and the location very convenient to South Bank, The Mater Hospital, and many other locales.

Could you please get staff to have some knowledge about location of shopping centres, as when I asked the person at the desk - they could not really help me, apart from saying that I could go into the city. I ended up asking someone passing by the hotel!
