Защо хората я обичат
- The location at Howard Smith Wharves is unbeatable for dining and nightlife
- Rooftop pool (Fiume) offers iconic views of the Story Bridge
- Sustainability isn't just a buzzword here—bamboo keys, zero single-use plastics, and recycled materials
Бързо резюме: It's undeniably cool and eco-chic, but the 'Nature Wall' rooms are essentially fancy caves facing a cliff.
Преглеждано от @heybrisbane: We had the best family staycation here! The art-filled lobby sets the tone, but waking up to the Story Bridge right outside our window was the real highlight. The rooftop pool is stunning, and even the breakfast delivery felt special. Perfect mix of cool design and family fun.

- You thrive on being in the center of the action
- You appreciate bold, industrial-chic design and art
- Sustainability is a priority for your travel choices

- Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling clean, though one guest noted a musty smell upon arrival in a specific room.
- Maintenance: Modern and well-maintained, though the 'unfinished' aesthetic can mask actual wear.

Джинийче за стаята
Топ избори
- River Master Balcony: The gold standard with a huge balcony and uninterrupted bridge views.
- River Room (High Floor): Good views without the noise of the promenade level.
Стаи за избягване
- Nature Wall Rooms: Unless you need total darkness to sleep, these feel claustrophobic.
- Promenade Rooms (Level 1-2): Too close to the public walkway and bars.

“I would love a room on a high floor (Level 4+) facing the river. Please avoid the Nature Wall side as I prefer natural light. If possible, a room away from the elevator would be appreciated.”

5 неща, които трябва да знаете преди да отидете
💡The 'Nature Wall' rooms are genuinely dark—like, lights-on-at-noon dark.
💡You have to walk through the Fiume bar to get to the pool, which can feel awkward in swimwear.
💡The concrete ceilings are intentionally left exposed and rough, which some guests mistake for 'unfinished'.
💡There is no gift shop, but the Asher Keddie portraits by Vincent Fantauzzo are everywhere.
💡The 'River' rooms have a massive bathtub, while others just have a shower.
