The hype
Travelers love the 'resort in the sky' feel and the pool, but often get frustrated by the complex layout and strict check-in policies.

$140-220/ notte
Prenota se You want a NYC-style skyscraper vibe with a killer rooftop pool in the heart of Brisbane's nightlife district.
Perché piace così tanto
- The U-shaped skyline pool on Level 6 is legitimately stunning
- Soundproofing (double glazing) is surprisingly good for the party location
- Apartments come with full kitchens and laundry, making it great for longer stays
In sintesi: A glossy, high-rise apartment hotel that looks like a magazine spread but suffers from confusing elevators and a location that never sleeps.
Recensito da @RoannaWhite3030874: I stayed here for a quick recharge and it was exactly what I needed. Booking the private spa lounge was a game-changer—total privacy! The apartment itself was huge, and I spent hours just staring at the Brisbane skyline from the sofa. It felt like my own luxury penthouse.
Cosa hanno detto gli ospiti che hanno soggiornato qui
Reality check
The 'luxury' veneer wears thin with reports of foul drain odors in bathrooms and dust under furniture.
- You're in town for a concert or night out in Fortitude Valley
- You prioritize a pool with a view over everything else
- You need in-room laundry and kitchen facilities
Pulizia e manutenzione
7.8
- Housekeeping: Hit or miss. Often described as 'surface clean' with dust sometimes found under furniture. Daily service is not standard.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally good, but watch out for the 'foul drain odor' reported in several sinks.
- Maintenance: Modern and generally well-kept, though some wear and tear on carpets and scuff marks in hallways are appearing.
- Linens & towels: Standard hotel quality—clean and crisp, but not ultra-luxury.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells expensive; some hallways can smell stuffy; occasional drain smells in rooms.
