Brisbane Quarters

Brisbane quarters was my favorite hostel I’ve stayed at on the east coast so far. The rooms were very clean and had curtains. I booked a 10 bed mixed dorm and got a 4 bed female dorm which was so appreciated. It’s nice that there’s free breakfast. The staff were lovely as well! I didn’t want to leave.

Well run, busy hostel. Clean, fresh facilities. Our pod room had about 12-14 pods in it but was not noisy. Shared shower/toilet area were clean. We were able to store our luggage before checking in as we arrived before 2 pm. Check out 10 am and check in 2pm- is strict and you can pay extra for prearranged late checkout and luggage storage. FANTASTIC breakfast- toast and spreads, cereal and yoghurt and fruit.

Cannot reccomend this hostel enough. The staff are wonderful just so kind and helpful. The facilities are clean. It is not a party hostel but has a fantastic selection of organised activities every evening. So it is very easy to meet people. Was originally supposed to be staying here for 1 week and I extended it as it was so nice.

Cool hostel/backpackers! Located 5 mins walk from Central station, 10min from Roma. Easy walk back from stadium. Good breakfast provisions, comfortable bunks, good air con. Pool small as per photo. Bathrooms clean, pleasant staff.

Loved my stay at Brisbane Quarters! Super clean, friendly staff and great facilities. The location is convenient, just keep in mind it’s an uphill walk from Central Station. The pod beds are great for privacy. It would be even better if the bedside cabinet had a lock, but lockers are available in the basement if you bring a padlock. I’d definitely come back!

This was the nicest hostel I’ve ever stayed in. Everything was spotless and modern, and the staff were incredibly friendly. The breakfast was amazing – they had every kind of milk alternative you could think of. You could even borrow things like a hairdryer, straightener, and more, which was a great extra touch. I’ll definitely be coming back!

The receptionist, Shine, was incredibly attentive and thoughtful. She gave us a thorough introduction to the accommodation, and her service attitude was excellent. Every time we saw her, she greeted us warmly and energetically, which instantly made the place feel lively and welcoming.

I was a weary traveler between lodgings when I came across this establishment. It was my first "hostel" experience, but it wasn't. Because I was concerned with my luggage (which was considerable to me), I booked a private room. So far, so good. I did not think there'd be a locked luggage room, the staff was very friendly. I thought it had a communal atmosphere which is a foreign concept, I had to quickly dash off to YouTube to search hostel culture. Anyway, my room had to pain points of improvement, if we can call them that. My shower water took at least 15 minutes of heating up and even then it'd go in waves. I know this because I was watching YouTube videos while my water was running. Secondly, and this is very preferential, there wasn't a desk in my room. The washing machine was Godsend, and if I knew how to cook I'd be more excited for the kitchenette, but what I really longed for was a desk to sit down and blog or write letters or something. To be fair there was plenty of communal space downstairs, but for a private room I would have exchanged one of my two televisions for a desk. Overall, it was a good experience and knowing what I know now will probably not get the private room, but get down in the open bay berthing like I never missed a day in the Navy.
