A reasonably priced hotel, in the centre of the city. Being located across the road from the botanical gardens provides a really nice peaceful outlook. Service at reception and in the restaurant was very good. The room was nicely decorated and included a desk which was handy to do a bit of work using the free wifi. The bed was... More

We stayed at this old charm hotel last weekend. Everything about the stay was pleasant. The best thing is the location to the Botanitcal Gardens across the road and the Brisbane River for a bit of sightseeing. It was also handy to numerous restaurants and cafes in the area. All staff were friendly and helpful. Enjoyed a nightcap in the... More

This hotel is so ideally located being close to the city shopping precinct and the river, across from the lovely botanic gardens and about a 10 minute walk around a couple of corners to some of the best restaurants in Brisbane, eg Aria and Cha Cha Char. Southbank is about a 20 minute easy walk through the gardens, along the... More

Stayed at the Royal on business in mid-May 2013. It is a good, comfortable, flop'n'drop close to town. It is - as the name suggests - across the road from the Botanical Gardens, and is therefore close to one of my all-time favourite riverside running tracks. Strongly recommend it from that point of view if that's your thing. Also close... More
