Brisbane Quarters

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.

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!

I had a really good time in this hostel, staff are all friendly, has a really good gym area, kitchen is a decent size but can get overcrowded around 6pm but other than that it’s great and has everything you need, rooms are good size and very clean. My only issue is something they can’t control which was that the majority of the people there were French and all had their big groups and don’t really bother with you when you try to talk to them as they’ve already got their group so made it quite hard to try and meet people/ make friends if you’re a solo traveller. Other than that lovely place

On my way to the airport I realized I didn’t have my passport, and I wasn’t allowed to check in even though I had photos of all three of my passports, visa documents, a police check that had arrived that same day, plus five debit and credit cards in my name. In the end, they refused to help and I lost the money for the reservation, even though I had booked only a few hours earlier and only chose the place for its location near the Greyhound terminal. Luckily, the amazing staff at Bunk Brisbane (where I always stay) checked me in with just a photo and the card I had booked with — proof that it’s possible to treat guests with basic common sense and flexibility. This other place showed zero customer care and absolutely no willingness to assist. Keeping the money under those circumstances is simply unfair. I won’t stay here again and I would not recommend it to anyone. If you are willing to refund my booking, I’d be happy to discuss it.

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.

One of my favorite hostels ever. Friendly staff, great service and facilities and budget friendly (I booked a dormitory during the week). They even offer free breakfast buffet which is such a great plus especially as a backpacker and trying to save some money here and there 😉 I felt very safe and comfortable during my stay here, thanks a million!

There are some things annoyed me while staying there. 1. The noise of closing a door is too loud. 2. Kitchen is a bit tiny. 3. Public area shuts down at 10pm. The staffs are all nice, they have different activities every night(except sat), you can borrow hair dryer at the counter, they also have lockers and refrigerators. Overall, BQ is the best hostel that I’ve been to! I’ve stayed seven nights at BQ and I never missed their breakfast time. It’s quite simple but delicious. BTW, could you tell me the brand of that cereal? please BQ team🥹🥹
