Essence Suites Taringa

The location is great for our needs. It was a modern clean room. It was good to have the train station, public transport and shops nearby.

We hired a room to get ready for a wedding in the Western suburbs and it served that function perfectly well. It is easily accessible by train and car and there is 3 hour free parking in the basement with undercover access to the lifts. There is a cafe with a reasonable selection just outside the lobby and lots of shops close by in Taringa. There are not many hotels in the area and this was perfect for us at a reasonable price.

The location of Essence Suites Taringa suited my needs perfectly. The reception staff were all really friendly and helpful of my questions and requests, including doing some printing for me the following morning, nothing was a hassle. The included breakfast from the cafe in the complex next to the reception area was absolutely delicious and a perfect way to start my very busy day. Highly recommend, two thumbs up!! Their coffee was also 10/10 I will definitely stay here every time I am in Brisbane for business in the future, it is my new 'go to' Brisbane hotel.

Great location, shops just up the street and bigger options and extra 5-10min walk away. Train station right under the hotel, 10min to the city. We also walked one day (was a long walk but nice once you hit the river), then scooted the whole way back - tip: get the purple scooters to do this, the orange scooters zones don’t go quite that far. It was a blast! The hotel staff are magnificent, nothing is too much trouble, also checked us in super early so we could sleep right after a grueling 19hr drive. Hotel is immaculate and very comfortable - excellent value for money.

I think the stand out for me is the staff. Everyone, and I mean everyone, is so welcoming and kind and will do whatever they can to make your stay memorable. I love the cafe downstairs. A great flat white to start my day! The room is comfortable, has everything you need and it is so handy to have the kitchenette. Also being so close to the train line made getting around Brisbane very easy.
