Location –
The Conrad is situated in the heart of Brisbane a two minute walk to Queen Street Mall the main shopping/ business area. It’s a short walk across a park to the Casino. It’s approximately 20 minutes from the domestic and international airports.
Check in-
All staff members were fantastic and showed a high level of efficiency. Our car was also parked for us and we were in our room within 5 minutes.
Room –
Our room 124 an executive suite was beautifully decorated and enormous, with stunning tall ceilings and high glass windows (locked). A lounge suite, working desk, mini bar, TV cabinet, CD player and a lovely king size bed.
It was my husband’s birthday and he was given a lovely platter of cheese and fruit and a “Happy Birthday” card which we thought to be extremely sweet. The only negative, we couldn’t open the windows to get to the large balcony attached to the room.
Bathroom –
The bathroom was very spacious and luxurious, with a separate bath tub and walk-in shower. Fluffy towels and bathrobes were also supplied.
Room Service – Fast and efficient.
Restaurants – We had dinner at the Casino in the Marco Polo Restaurant which we found to offer an excellent menu and wine list. The food was also of the highest quality. There are numerous other bars and restaurants located in the hotel and within the casino.
Breakfast – The breakfast room was located on the lobby floor in the Lab Bar, and offered an a la carte menu (no buffet) which we do prefer. However, the service was fabulous and the breakfast terrific.
Business Centre- there is a small office on the ground floor next door to the reception which offered internet service with a printer attached.
Overall –
We had a lovely stay at Conrad’s and my husband enjoyed his birthday surprise, especially being able to play blackjack next door at the casino. I highly recommend this hotel if looking for 5 star accommodation and service in the heart of Brisbane.
Negative – none except there is no swimming pool which I particularly like to have especially in the summer months.
