Hi Eugene, Thank you for taking the time to review Hotel Chino. We are only i bus stop away from UQ or a walk but, you are right, if you need to drive you have to go through the city. The Woolworths and Target at the Buranda shopping centre is less than 200 metres from Hotel Chino - just at the end of Wolseley Street. I think you must have ventured to Coles Woolloongabba which is about 1.5 km away. We are so pleased you enjoyed eating at Chinos restaurant & bar. We hope to accommodate again. Maria A - Manager
