Petrie Vacation Packages

Helpful staff and neat room!

Nice property, rooms are clean, and well maintained. Dining on site is convenient, staff are helpful, and friendly. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

The hotel is desperately in need of renovation. However the location is good which is all it has going for it.

If you are going to Suncorp Stadium or a Caxton Street venue like Lefty's Music Hall, this is the ideal place to stay. Arrive early to ensure limited hotel parking because the only other option is The Barracks which is very expensive. There are two sets of lifts in the carpark - one goes to the function area and the other to hotel reception, so make sure you read the signs. We checked in a little early and I agreed to stay in an accessible room as our room wasn't ready. Good air-con, comfortable bed, spotlessly clean and a cute little balcony. There are minimal staff who are very professional and efficient, but not particularly friendly. I had two concerns. Firstly, for an able-bodied person, the tiles in the accessible shower are VERY slippery. The shower is only surrounded by a curtain so the water spreads a fair way. We put down lots of towels to avoid an accident. I don't know how someone with a moonboot or other disability would cope. My second concern was that the decorative stones next to the balcony had cigarette butts and bottle caps which takes away some of the ambience. There was also only one lift working, but that didn't affect us at all. Overall, we had a lovely stay and we slept in because of the excellent blackout curtains. Some sites market this hotel as five star, but it is really four star. As long as you are prepared for that, this is a good, well-priced hotel.

Check in and front office staff were excellent. Building itself is great with a beautiful pool and tennis courts. We just were assigned room 77 for the two bedroom/three bed combo and it was in pretty rough shape compared to pic on expedia. The couches were literally coming apart at seams, only 3 drinking glasses but plenty of wine glasses 🤔, tea kettle had water sitting in bottom for who knows how long and has some pretty gnarly buildup at bottom. Microwave worked, but you had to guess at times, because the display was broken. Chair in bedroom had seat that was completely broken. Only one air conditioner in main living room without great ventilation so bedrooms got pretty hot no matter how icy the living room got. Only had vertical stand fan in each room, which meant one person got a light breeze and the other sweltered. On positive, TV was nice, washer was in great shape, and there wash a nice drying rack on porch. With heat and being on top floor, you could smell the garbage chute pretty strongly right outside the door. Luckily, it didn’t permeate into apartment. Would have rated higher, but felt like a bit of bait and switch when you compared the pic to the apartment we were assigned.
