A classic charming retro hotel,great curves on the facade, complete with somewhat grumpy check in (of course with the biggest smile the next time you see him), wonderful outlook over the jungle of the botanic garden through amazing almost full wall window, stylized furniture from sometime around the 70s when these details made every hotel unique, but it is the year 2020 so there is also pod espresso, good tv, and ... here they set the bar high for australian hotels... one of those japanese style toilets with the heated seat and various water options, with the signature Royal stamp of the hotel. What a fun place!

Location was super, a short walk to Eagle Pier and Queen street Mall. Great to have the gardens to enjoy. Car parking with the choice of undercover or not. The in house restaurant was excellent as was the service and at a reasonable price.

This hotel has stood the test of time. We learnt that in the 1980's it was the go to hotel for overseas artists including Michael Jackson, Boy George and Led Zeppelin. The level of service is what you expect at a 5 star hotel. The beds are very comfortable and we were on the 5th floor and enjoyed the city view. There was a small issue in our bathroom which the staff helped us with efficiently. The Botanical Gardens are across the road and there is a variety of pubs and dining option in the area only a short walk away.

The only thing that wasn’t great. ... bar was shut at the hotel New Year’s Eve ... every other hotel I’ve stayed in had their bar open all night.

Great breakfast though one morning the food/drink wasn’t restocked fully as it was used

The breakfast buffet was a good value. The pool was excellent.

The hotel is a little gem across the street from Brisbane’s Botanic Gardens and a short distance from the lively scene along the river. Our room was a comfortable size and the bed was good. The hotel is older but very well maintained. The wifi was also good. The hotel was very well-priced.
