"Nice" Guest Review of Metro Hotel Tower Mill - Brisbane Hotel Reviews

I stayed at the Tower Mill last year as it was opposite where our tour was to leave from.

I booked an executive room and I was pleased with the room, especially my view of the tower mill itself and the city beyond. The room was small but suitable for one person.

The breakfast was very nice but make sure to read the menu properly - I ordered extras with my bacon and eggs and ended up paying $36 for breakfast! Woops. All said and done - I would stay here again if I was on my own.

If travelling with my husband or family, I would choose somewhere with larger rooms.

“Great Hotel” - Metro Hotel Tower Mill, Brisbane

My husband and I stayed at this hotel late March at the start of holidays, we were greeted very warmly by Manager Allan Hilt & his staff, everything at the hotel was great, room was terrific, good rates, wonderful views, they have a restaurant & bar.

Allan was checking on transport to the airport for us and came and found us and told us what he found out about the coach, it was too early in the morning so we decided to go by Airtrain, we bought the tickets there with a saving of $1.50 each.

We caught a taxi to and from the station to the hotel cost around $10, thanks to Allan and his staff for such a pleasant experience.

No More Five Star Australia Hotels

The development of new five star hotels in Australia is looking increasingly unlikely, according to industry experts.

Room rates are not high enough resulting in lower returns, according to Tourism Australia general manager destination development, Craig Davidson.

“The returns just don’t stack up,” he told a conference in Sydney. “We see the majority of new hotels being built in the four star market

which is where the new Sydney Airport hotel will most likely sit.”

Karen Wales, senior vice president research and strategic advisory Jones Lang LaSalle Hotels, agreed that growth would most likely occur

In the lower brackets.

“Most visitors are looking for budget or mid-market accommodation,” she said.

But with even lower room rates, these properties were also difficult to make viable, she added.

Meanwhile, chairman and founder of Anthology Hotels Grant Hunt drew a question mark over the existence of luxury properties in Australia.

“I don’t think that we do luxury in Australia,” he said. “We don’t have the service or the staff.”

Good location but near the top of the hill, so you have to climb to go there. Very bad reception. Cleanliness of the bathroom inadequate. Too expensive for what it is.

I thoroughly enjoyed, the outlook, privacy and pwace. It was close enough to CBD to walk but it was also located close enough to most public transport. The front desk staffas well as the restaurant staff were most helpful and pleasant. The range of food offered was good and was well presented. Althogether a very pleasant stay. Sue Ryan

When I read the history of this hotel I expected the room may not so clean and old. Surprised! when I came to the room the bed and sheet is very new. Everthing in the room are new. The reception said that this hotel just renewed a few years ago. I am a kind of good luck person that I found this hotel. Anyway, there is no bath in the bathroom. It s ok for me to help Brisbane safe the water and environment! I am very appreciated with your hotel....Metro Tower Mill in Brisbane.
