    It’s close to everything including Suncorp Stadium for the Concerts we go too

    The Pool is great. Very comfortable place to stay. Restaurant is great. Staff are amazing

    9NicolePosted on: 2-23-2026

    Staff were so welcoming and kind to us on arrival, little gift for the children including free ice cream was well received. Restaurant and bar staff were also friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. Free parking! What a treat!

    Location is average but great if you like a short walk to South Bank area. The elevators were slow and busy.

    Close to amenities

    When purchasing a gin and tonic with friends at the bar downstairs I had to ask for lime in my drink The waiter then proceeded to pick lime up with his hands and dump them in first in my sons soda water water then in mine My husband I and were not impressed Not what I expect from a $600 a night hotel Maybe time to purchase some Tongs Car park was tiny and tight - if you could get a park Not worth an extra $38 a night

    9JessicaPosted on: 2-22-2026

    Good location, quiet area, comfortable beds with a spacious room.

    More breakfast options (more pastries and hot food options)

    10FionaPosted on: 2-21-2026

    It is accessible

    The price for the accessible room is so pricey and so was the food

    8EmmaPosted on: 2-19-2026

    Very good

    Was a queue of people trying to check in from 2:30pm so there was a wait. Even though I’d completed the online check in I still had to fill more paperwork when I physically checked in so it didn’t save time.

    10DallasPosted on: 2-17-2026

    Great location, a hop skip and a jump to Brisbane wheel and river. Everything was spotless cleanStaff were super friendly and helpful and the foreign guy behind the bar made an amazing Jameson and Dry

    Wasn’t sure how I felt about the bathroom door situation but that’s the way things are going

    8DarrylPosted on: 2-15-2026

    We always enjoy staying at the Novotel South Bank. The staff are always lovely & helpful & the facilities & room were clean & presented well.Location is also great as its an easy walk to Southbank, BCEC or QPAC which we visit regularly.We also always enjoy the buffet breakfast which is a reason we stay at the Novotel as many other hotels in the area do not offer this & the range & quality of the breakfast menu is great with anything you could ever want.

    The only negative about this hotel is the guests smoking right outside the main entrance.There is a walking lane way in front of the Novotel that allows guests a shorter path to easily get to BCEC or heading towards South Bank or QPAC but this also seems to be the place that guests smoke so if you want to go anywhere you have to walk right through everyone's cigarette smoke to get to the lane way which for non smokers or guests with children is quite uncomfortable & unhealthy.Just a suggestion but it would be a great improvement if the Novotel could maybe provide an alternate smoking place for those wanted to do so that is away from where all their other guests walk & have to breath someone else's smoke.In this day & age a hotel should do better in this area.

    9StephaniePosted on: 2-15-2026

    Every staff member we encountered was friendly and helpful. Smiles and warm greetings every time we came and went was noticed and appreciated. Room was as described and suited our needs for the 4 nights spent.

    Would have been nice to have water provided in the fridge or a jug for water.

    8AdamPosted on: 2-15-2026

    It was neat and tidy and the staff were polite.

    I thought the cost of Breakfast and Parking was over the top.

    8JennyPosted on: 2-15-2026

    Staff superb service

    No inroom dining menu available. It says there is and provides a QR code but doesn’t take us to a menu for in room dinner no other tha breakfast menu. There is no menu for the restaurant for dinner available to choose from during dinner time either. If this was available I would have scored approximately however Emily at check-in made it just good. I would have been happy to spend more with you food and beverage had this information been available.

    4NoelPosted on: 2-12-2026

    Staff good

    Getting bit rundown. Breakfast was awful. Cold eggs, dry bacon, over cooked mushrooms and coffee machine out of order.

    10MichellePosted on: 2-12-2026

    Bed was super comfy! Room was clean, modern and functional.

    9VanessaPosted on: 2-11-2026

    Everything internal was excellent. Loved how the bathroom opened up into the room. Made it seem larger. Beds were very comfortable. Also extremely grateful that we were able to check in as soon as we arrived at 9.30am after an early morning flight. Short walk to lots of restaurants and cafes.

    Little to no view on the lower levels other than tent city in the neighbouring park and no balcony.

    Friendly staff

    Room size, not clean, not enough privacy with those sliding doors for bathroom and toilet

    10Carrie-annPosted on: 2-4-2026

    Room was very clean. We loved the selection and presentation of the breakfast buffet

    Onsite parking is very tight if you have a 4wd

    6GrahamPosted on: 2-4-2026

    Pleasant

    Parking a bit odd, not enough car spots for the amount of rooms apparently as it gets full and you have to park at the conference Center a block or two away. Wouldn’t stay there again.
