InterContinental Brisbane by IHG
The Hotel is getting to look a bit tired and dated, and the executive lounge although the service was good it could do with a extra person serving drinks.

The Point Brisbane Hotel
We enjoyed our stay here. Staff were helpful, the room clean and comfortable and the pool was an added benefit. The hotel’s location is good for exploring Brisbane if you aren’t dependant on public transport, the Kangaroo Bridge is a short walk.
