Clean room. A/c failed on first night. They moved us and refunded the room. There are no photos of the shower which is over a bath tub in every room. For someone with mobility issues this was very hard and when in the bath it was slippery. Far from ideal. If I had known that I had to step into a bath I would not have booked it.

Hot tub/spa pool was cold but nice in the heat no bubbles though. Car park was a bit rough to navigate with structural poles to dodge. No staff at check out so just did key drop, after waiting 15 mins with a few other rooms of people waiting to do the same.

Staff at the Mantra was amazing. Called to confirm but wasn’t pushy. When I arrived after a long day of travelling, they were very welcoming.
The room was comfortable and large. By myself but certainly could have had another person in there comfortably.
The location was great too. Went for a nice walk in the morning and there were some nice cafes and shops around.

The reception staff were lovely, we asked for a product to which they'd bring to the room but it wasnt what was asked, assuming they were out and just left whatever to make it up. The room wasnt what the pictures advertised and was very old and dated looking. The curtains had holes in them and the air conditioning did not work in the old duct vents even turned on to its lowest setting of 18°. The room definitely wasnt noise cancelling as we heard sirens no stop from the traffic outside and the room next door banging walls and slaming doors. The carpark is a tight squeeze if you have a large car and in general be cautious.The only solid point is the bed was very comfortable.

The room was nice, warm and cozy, also slept like a baby the bed is comfortable. Did come across a couple of cockaroaches but besides that the room was lovely. The receptionist + staffs are absolutely lovely and welcoming. The carpark is very tight to get through and out more suitable for smaller cars than normal or medium sized cars, also trying to find a spot for guest was hard since majority of parks are reserved or private parking but the good note is they directed us to carpark spots if there isn't any left on site. Overall we enjoyed our stay, close by to clubs etc and right next to the shops. The veiw in our room from the window was absolutely beautiful. Do recommend for anyone wanting to do a solo or going with a partner stay for a holiday or to just get away. Pricing of the place is worth it too and absolutely cheap especially for one night.

Parking is their biggest issue for guests. Seems as thought they are all taken up by Permanent residents.??? Shouldn't there be a space for at least each unit. Do a lot of the permanents have more than one car Also car spaces were very tight. We did not park in the car park there but listening to a lot of our friends who also stayed there, as we had a venue to go to down at Grove, they were quite disgusted, It is as if car park spaces would only take a 3 cylinder car or less.

I booked for five people as in five adults got given a room with one double bed and one king bed had to ring and request a rollout bed because nothing else was available there was no toilet paper in the bathrooms, we had no towels. The place was dated and cramped considering what we paid. To be for the staff member that was trying to correct all the wrongs was doing really well and very helpful. The rest of the staff look like they didn’t even want to be there.

Expensive room and for actual standard expected is below average due to condition. Drains in bathroom emitted foul smell which filled the room. Dirty walls and floor and overall building quality is below an acceptable level. Also ventilation in bathroom is non existent and Lord knows how it passed inspection.
Overall not a good hotel experience in ways of living. Service was excellent and at least they have good staff 10/10 to them. Owner needs to stop trying to line his pockets and fix the existing issues.

I called in advance for an early check in, was unavailable on the day.
We ended up checking in at 10-11pm after an event and it was very difficult as there was no reception and everything was via phone. Unfortunately there were a few of us who had the same issue and it was very clunky and we were waiting for accesses and a couple of room keys were mixed up amongst the other guests.
No restaurant available as it was shut on the day. Car park is a nightmare. I don’t recommend driving in and trying to navigate the car park if you have anything bigger than a hatch.

Clean room. Just wasn't aware of the $200 security deposit that they ask for when you get there and when you leave they only deposit it within 3 days. When travelling can be inconvenient if not made aware. Also left my medication in the hotel and they said they would post it to me but I would have to pay the postage which just altogether was bad service. Also the cafe entry point we're strange we had to order outside like walk around the whole thing even though we were a guest. Bit confusing.

For $120 per night, this would be a good hotel, though I spent good money ($322) based on its write up and pictures only be met with a run down building, well overdue for refurbishment.

Small pokey room overlooking rusty iron roof, bathroom door awkward to close when you went in due to space/configuration, hot water jug had something crusted into bottom of it so couldn't use, had to get the hot iron replaced (as bottom was filthy with brown muck from lack of cleaning) before I could iron my clothes - I'm sure other rooms may have been better & more spacious or nicer but mine wasn't a great experience.

Paid for one of the 'nicer' rooms. The floor smelt like stale vomit, the wifi didn't work, the clothes dryer didn't work and the parking was full. I was then redirected to another carpark which cost $138 for 2 days. And anytime any of these issues were brought to the counter staffs attention. Nothing happened. My room and parking for 2 adults cost around $850 for 2 nights. Biggest rip off I've ever experienced with a hotel. After complaining to the staff, I was told they'll be in contact to rectify it but still no phone call. Do yourself a favour and choose somewhere else, the Mantra on Queen is 3 star at best

Our room was ok, great view but I think I paid extra for that. The rooms bathroom was tiny and had ants in it. We only had 2 towels when we booked for 3 guests. It’s on a noisy street with a pub below and the windows don’t reduce the noise. No parking so had to park down the road and walk back. No restaurants on site or breakfast. The pool area and exterior of building is very run down. Staff were ok, not super friendly. Would not come back again.

Although it's called Mantra on Queen, the main entrance is not on Queen Street but around the back. I would not have felt comfortable returning to the hotel after dark due to the area and poorly lit access.

Hi,
Following a review with Expedia on Friday evening, Matthew from reception reached out with the below;

I am able to offer you an upgrade to one of our newly refurbished 1 bedroom river views for no additional cost.

We had gone out to lunch and they rang and said our room was ready and they needed our current room, so I said they could move our belongings. However when we returned we found that the room was of the same basic rundown quality of the previous room, and in fact if anything was smaller that the one we had moved from.

It most certainly had NOT been refurbished,and if anything was a downgrade.

They moved us from room 2703 to 2905.

Yes we had a balcony, but given it’s probably just about large enough to actually stand on and we never used, or would have wanted to.

Yes they allowed us to park in their car park for the last night, we had already paid $35 for a nights parking in some offsite car park. Incidentally there seemed to be plenty car parks available in the car park.

So all in all a very disappointing end to our 5 day stay in Brisbane.

Not impressed at all…

Be aware of the panned tv music. Great staff.

Wonderful staff but ... this was a Xmas present from our young sons, 3 nights away. First night we could hear this music continuously playing wasnt sure where it was coming from. By 5am we felt we had a bad case of jet lag. Went down to reception early to let reception know. Long story short was Panned music from the tv in empty room next door, was then turned off until our last night .Rang reception at 10.30 pm to ask if anyone was going to be in the next room and if not could they turn if off again. Which they did did within half an hour. Don’t usually complain but this is the only thing which put a damper on the whole trip. Parking was abit tight wouldn’t recommend a 4 wheel drive in there but parks were available, which is $20 per night. Close to Woolworths, chemist & bottle shop. Bus route is good to Southbank also.
