Perfect location! Rooms were okay. We stayed in a 2-queen bed. Had a frigde and minibar, but no microwave. Bathroom was very strange. The handle to flush the toilet was on a wall so after using the toilet, you would have to get up and flush. It’s also not a handle, but more like a button. The shower/tub was not my favorite… most dislike thing of the hotel. There were not curtains or sliding door except of a glass door that covered half the tub so water splashed outside the tub while you were showering. Lots of water got on the floor too. Gym was on top floor but you have to take the stairs to the gym after taking the elevator to the top floor. It was a little small but decent. Pool was outdoor and the water WASNOTHEATED. We came with our 4 year old son and he wasn’t able to go swimming at all because the weather was a bit windy. It’s not much for a family hotel but great location. Staffs were great… greeted us everyday. Did not try the hotel food. Beds were super comfy. Overall, great location. If you’re looking for a great hotel with great location, this is it. Décor was nice too. I recommend it but I wouldn’t come back.

I attended a 2 day conference here in September and was very impressed. The facilities were good, the staff were helpful and attentive. Rooms were well appointed. Being opposite the botanical gdns was also nice. Overall a very enjoyable experience.

We rented a suite here for wedding preparations and our first night as a couple. It exceeded all expectations. The price for the suite is what originally got our attention, much better value than other city suites, it was also very large.(Sadly about as large as our apartment!) The service was great, prompt and friendly. I also loved the décor, bit of a vintage twist on a contemporary suite. The bed was super comfy and the bathroom amenities were of high quality. The only downside was the parking. It was expensive and annoying when we were lugging items between the car and room as it was not super close to the hotel with no direct elevator. Also the front desk lady tried to charge us two nights parking even though we had our car moved after one night. We argued this point for some time before she agreed we shouldn’t be charged the second day — $ 28/day. Overall a lovely hotel. I would recommend the suite to others who need a bit of a roomier room.

Hotel Service is average, for the price you pay for an overnight stay and even for daily car parking you would expect better service. Rooms are outdated, but do provide good views of Brisbane. Two red teddy bears on the bed are a little bit of a suspect touch. The Wallnut buffet breakfast is expansive with some great options but making a coffee or toasting some bread is hard to do without explanation or assistance. In regards to events, Royal on the Park really steps up to the plate. Wait staff are friendly and very attentive, the beverage manager is happy to show you through and see through any concerns. Food comes from a variety of different cultures and does not fail to impress. A big plus — the Morrisey Designer Toiletries!

I love coming to the Royal On The Park. i have been here a few times to attend wedding receptions and can I just say all were spectacular and compliments to the staff to helped make the brides and grooms day even better. Prior to entering the reception hall, all enjoyed champagne and canapés in a room, then later moved to the reception. Similar to most functions, food was served to the guests at alternate drops and drinks were flowing everywhere. The waiters were quick on their feet to bring the drinks and top up any empty glass they see. They’re efficient little workers. At each reception I remember each having their own unique style, however, all had in common a seemingly effortless and organised event. Every one is happy and most importantly I remember the newly married couples being extremely happy with the outcome!

Royal on the park has been a venue I have been to on numerous work meetings. We normally meet quite early and the staff were always more than happy to go out of their way to accommodate us. We even had one of the managers do his best to make us all a coffee before they had completely opened for breakfast. It was quite good coffee as well. I can’t comment on the accommodation as I have only been for breakfast meetings, but can say that the breakfast was superb. Everything was cooked quite well and it was a very comfortable place to go.

Let me just say, having never been inside Royal On The Park before a few weekends ago, I had pretty high expectations. Its exterior and towering façade leave quite an impression. Royal On The Park served as hotel and reception venue for a wedding I attended and it was amazing. The lobby is resplendent in red and I felt enveloped in its charming setup the minute I breezed through its doors. I was impressed from the outset, but it also didn’t hurt that we got one of the best suites covering two rooms. Oh, and did I mention we had a butler? His name was Adam and he was marvellous. Be sure to give him a shout if you go there. Not only did he pander to our every request(we girls didn’t request much mind, we’re not used to being waited on), he also managed to help fix an untimely flower arrangement mix-up in time for the reception. Amazing. I stayed in two types of rooms over a weekend and they were both comfortable with spectacular views of Brisbane city and the Botanical Gardens. The reception hall was excellent for the post-ceremony antics the food was excellent. Plus the waiters were always topping up my champagne glass, so they get a rave review from me. Reception staff are helpful and extremely smartly dressed. It proved to be an ideal setting for a wedding reception and seems like it would be perfect for tourists, given its central location. Easy access and a lovely set up. Royal on the Park has function rooms that can be hired out and their Walnut restaurant, which serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner seven days a week.
