開業時住過一次那時候泳池還在裝修,我最近入住布里斯班 The Star Grand 酒店(位於Queen’s Wharf Brisbane核心),這絕對是我在澳洲住過最滿意的酒店之一!從踏進大門那一刻,就被奢華又熱鬧的氛圍徹底征服了~
服務真的非常非常優良!
前台接待超親切專業,24小時服務,Check-in/Check-out都超順暢。房間一進去就幫我升級到河景房,工作人員態度好到讓人感動,任何小問題(例如我需要借插頭轉換器)馬上就借給我,完全不用自己找!酒店還提供免費Wi-Fi,訊號超穩,速度快到可以邊看Netflix邊工作,完全零延遲。插頭借用這點真的太貼心了,尤其對國際旅客來說超方便!
樓下就是**+超級熱鬧的娛樂區!
酒店直接連通 The Star Brisbane **,晚上走幾步就到,裡面燈光璀璨、人聲鼎沸,酒吧、餐廳、購物一應俱全,氣氛非常非常熱鬧!不管是想小***、喝杯雞尾酒,還是純粹感受城市夜生活,都不用出酒店就搞定。完全就是「一站式娛樂天堂」
KKate CanovaCan I put 6 stars? :)
This place is definitely one of the best hostels ever. Where do I start from?
Reception: everyone is always super kind and helpful, including offering help with luggage and everything else. The hostel looks very new and modern, so beautiful!
Room: it's great! Big enough, with hangers, curtains on each bed (amazing!), plugs and light for every bed and also some extra plugs around the room. Bed was very comfortable and I felt great there!
Bathroom: always clean, soap in every sink and in every shower, big and nice!
Kitchen: incredibly well equipped and open 24 hours. There are 2 doors separating it from the rooms so it's never noisy even if people are there in the night. They provide big boxes that fit in the (many) fridges so that it's all tidy and clean. Goodbye the hundreds of Woolworths bags and messy fridges with no space for other people's food! Even the cups, the dishes were perfectly clean, like everything else. I was seriously impressed, they did the cleaning multiple times a day. Free salt, oil, tea and coffee always available.
Common areas: really beautiful, full of books, games, with a huge TV and many tables and beanbags.
Events: they actually organize social events and the staff helps the ”new” people to socialize. That's so important! Many long termers don't really mind about meeting new people but if the staff does his part then it gets a lot easier. And here, they do. On my first night they had a free cheese and wine event and we got a lot of tasty food and wine.
Location: perfect, just above Woolworths and a few minutes walking from everything. The Little Drifter feels more like an hotel than a hostel and I really don't know how people can rate it low.
As great as it is I would still like to suggest some possible improvement. Maybe at the Reception you can print a map with a few info about the hostel on the back. I didn't understand where the boxes for the kitchen were, I didn't find the labels. Also it took me 3 days to find out that I had another toilet a lot closer to my room, so for 3 days I was crossing a very long hallway in the middle of the night when I had to go.
I also didn't like the fact that I had to open the doors through the app and I discovered later that there is a code to open it as well (I try to leave my phone in my room as much as possible).
This hostel is a little more expensive than other places but it's totally worth it! If I'll be back in Cairns I won't hesitate to come here. Thanks!
