Circular hotel neighbors historic Brisbane windmill

The Metro Hotel Tower has two interesting claims to fame. The hotel is in a well-known circular building and it is next to a windmill that was built by convicts in 1828. But the budget-friendly hotel is also conveniently located near city attractions, hospitals, and businesses. Metro Tower, which overlooks relaxing Wickham Park, is a short walk from Roma Street Parkland. All rooms have private balconies. On-site amenities include a restaurant and bar, laundry facilities, and wireless Internet (fees apply).

Highlights
  • Near the heritage-listed site of the Tower Mill windmill
  • Iconic circular building
  • Private balconies on every room
  • Overlooking Wickham Park
Rooms

Metro Hotel Tower Mill is home to 80 guest rooms with full amenities. The rooms are furnished in a simple but classic style. The best features in most of the rooms are the private balconies. The budget rooms do not have a balcony. All rooms overlook Brisbane city, the nearby suburbs, or the neighboring park.

Features

The hotel is named for the nearby Tower Mill historic site. The on-site namesake restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily.

 

Metro Tower is located on the edge of the central business district. Attractions within easy walking distance of the hotel include the Queen Street Shopping Mall entertainment area, Brisbane Town Hall, the Treasury Casino, and South Bank Parkland. The hotel is also convenient to the Brisbane Private Hospital.

 

The Metro Tower welcomes leisure and business travelers. The hotel has conference and function rooms on site. The hotel has wireless Internet access (fees apply) and a coin-operated Internet terminal in the foyer. Other on-site amenities include a coin-operated laundry facility.

Metro Hotel

We stayed at the hotel for 1 night in the beginning of May 2013. The room was clean and the staff was very helpful and pleasant. The rooms were simple and what you would expect for the price.

Great site Needs work

Staff extremely helpful and pleasant from booking in. Room clean but no lights. Fuse replaced very quickly but cupboard door off hinges, ironing board broken - a few minor complaints which could be easily fixed to add comfort and value. Despite these problems I would return to hotel because the location is excellent - walking distance to 2 main train stations, bus to CBD and tourist loop at door, away from noisy parts of city.

A pleasant stay. We arrived early

A pleasant stay. We arrived early and were able to check in early with no dramas. Good location on Wickham Tce, however the walk back from the city is quite hilly therefore if you have a pram to push or a disability, you may find this an effort. Would stay here again.
