The hype
Travelers love the 'funky' design and the staff's 'whatever/whenever' attitude, but often complain about the price of parking and the noise levels.

$230-400 / noc
Zarezervujte to, ak You want to be the main character in a glittery, riverfront party where the pool scene is as loud as the decor.
Prečo sa ľuďom páči
- The 'WET Deck' pool bar is a legitimate local hotspot, not just a sad hotel pool
- River views from 'Spectacular' rooms are actually spectacular
- Breakfast at The Lex is a high-end feast that justifies the $49 AUD price tag
Rýchly prehľad: A loud, proud, sensory overload that nails the 'luxury bogan' aesthetic but might keep light sleepers awake.
Recenzované @kazplum: Walking into this place felt like entering a cyberpunk dream. The light installation at the entrance sets the mood instantly, and riding that escalator up to Level 3? Total main character energy. You have to see these lights in person.
Čo povedali hostia
Reality check
The 'open concept' bathrooms are a frequent point of contention for friends traveling together who didn't expect to watch each other brush their teeth.
- You prioritize a vibe and Instagram moments over silence
- You want to be steps away from South Bank and Queen Street Mall
- You travel with a dog (they are genuinely pampered here)

- Housekeeping: Generally excellent. Daily service is thorough, though some guests note missed dust in corners.
- Bathroom hygiene: Spotless. The glass and chrome are kept polished, which is impressive given the amount of it.
- Maintenance: High standard. Everything feels new and 'shiny', though the high-tech room controls can sometimes glitch.
- Linens & towels: Crisp, high-thread-count sheets and plush towels. No complaints here.
- Odors & scents: Lobby has a signature 'W' scent (citrus/floral) that is strong. Rooms are generally fresh.

Is the pool heated?
Yes, the WET Deck pool is heated, but it's outdoors and can get breezy.
How much is breakfast?
The buffet at The Lex is approximately $49 AUD per person and is widely considered worth it.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, it's very pet-friendly. Expect a fee of ~$150 AUD per stay plus ~$30 AUD per night.
Is there a resort fee?
No specific 'resort fee', but watch out for the 1.95% credit card surcharge.

Insider tipy
- ✨
Skip the hotel valet and self-park at the Brisbane Quarter carpark next door to save ~$30/night.
- ✨
Request a 'high floor river view' specifically; the 'city view' often just looks at other buildings.
- ✨
The 'Living Room Bar' often has better cocktails and a more chill vibe than the crowded rooftop.
5 vecí, ktoré by ste mali vedieť pred cestou
💡The 'zebra' pattern in the pool is trippy and makes it hard to judge depth when tipsy.
💡The elevators are dark and disco-lit, which can be disorienting.
💡Housekeeping is aggressive about the 12 PM checkout—don't push it.
💡The 'minibar' is actually a cool retro turquoise chest, but the prices are eye-watering.
💡You can hear the bass from the club even in the lobby restrooms.
