The kitchen is good,but the cooking wares are worn-out and not suitable for cooking.The ovens are dirty and lack of maintenance. The microwave oven is in good condition. If there’s enough space for eating, it’s fine.

We stayed for 6 nights. We had a hire car which was garaged safely in the car park below the building. The location gave us easy access to Brisbane and surrounding areas. All of the ladies that worked behind the reception desk were helpful and friendly.

This was my 4th stay within a month due to visiting the Greenslopes Private Hospital for medical treatment. The stayed in a studio queen and the room is very tastefully decorated with a super soft bed Lots of dining options nearby with Macca’s KFC Subway, One fish 2 fish or the Pineapple hotel with $22 steak all with 500m Extra thumbs up to the staff who found I had left my electric toothbrush charger in my room and rang me and then forwarded it to me via post. I will be staying at this hotel again next time I am in Brisbane for medical treatment. City Star Lodge is a little gem and the hotel owners are putting their money back into it doing up the rooms.

This was my 3rd stay in under a month at City Star Lodge, I choose the twin room to see how it faired compared to the Queen studio. The Twin room still hasn’t had a face lift and was a tad more dated and only a small tv and no coffee maker in the room compared to the Queen studio. However the bed was comfortable and the room clean and the shower was clean and tidy also. Once these twin rooms have a make over id be keen to give them another go but at the moment as a solo travelling for medical reasons the Queen Studio is amazing bang for your buck

Have stayed at this hotel twice now to ver the past 3 weeks as I have been coming to town for medical reasons. The hotel is close to the Greenslopes Private Hospital where my treatment is. Hotel is close to a subway and excellent fish and chip shop plus the Pineapple hotel all within less the 500m or if you wish you can cook for yourself in a kitchen that is provided within the hotel. Hotel has safe gated car parking and the rooms have all had a great make over to bring them upto a better 2024 standard. And the pool is well kept There was a problem last stay with the plumbing with a burst pipe but management sent a text to all guests to inform them of any water outages while it was being fixed. Overall I rate the hotel a decent 4 stars and will be staying there again when i am next in Brisbane for my medical treatments
