Top The Zoo Hotel Reviews

Royal On The Park

8/10 Good

"Old hotel, but ckean and simple, good sized room, and great location to many things. Staff were lovely"

Amora Hotel Brisbane

8/10 Good

"Our room was nice. Beds were twin, so not Queen, and too small for two of us to comfortably sleep. The AC was not cool enough throughout the night as it went off and on (probably some energy saving mechanism). The gym was good enough, but there is no hot tub at the hotel, just a pool, which we didn't use. The bar was good. The restaurant is only open for breakfast and dinner, not lunch, which we would have liked to have, as we checked out at 12 noon. The parking was only $15 on the weekend which is good value. Our shower was very nice. The carpet needs a good cleaning as it was quite worn and discoloured. I would likely stay there again if I'm alone and not with family members."

Kennigo Hotel Brisbane, Independent Collection by EVT

10/10 Excellent
