Spicers Balfour Hotel

The suites are located in a beautifully renovated old building and are so gorgeous and comfortable. The location is perfect for seeing a different side of Brisbane (we had an event on at the Powerhouse and it was just nearby) and breakfast at the restaurant was fabulous. A perfect stay.

My husband & I have just enjoyed the most wonderful stay at the Balfour Hotel, starting with a phone call from Maxine letting us know of an early check in availability and an upgrade to a delightful Studio on arrival. We enjoyed a drink on the rooftop bar & a delicious dinner at the restaurant. Maxine and all the staff we interacted with during our stay are a credit to management. Thank you all for your wonderful service to your guests. We will most definitely be back again!

Just ran the People and Culture Accelerator Program at Spicers Balfour and it was a big success. The food is outstanding, the Simla Room with its tree-lined view is a beautiful training venue and Bianca Bekhore, the conference coordinator was a stand-out - went out of her way to ensure we had a fab experience and was very responsive to our on-the-day needs. I will definitely be back!

Not our first time staying at a Spicers and won't be our last. From the room upgrade, the amazing staff and the delicious dinner... can't recommend Spicers Balfour enough. Was perfect for what we needed - a quiet getaway with everything at our fingertips and no requirement to leave.Restaurant was just delicious. Already looking forward to returning.Some other reviews mention that the view from the rooms are lacking - but we used the room to sleep so it was irrelevant and what matters more is the bed (so comfy).FYI - If you would prefer a quieter room book the King room downstairs!

My partner and I visited here last night for dinner. What a hidden little gem! The food and wine was delicious. Great portions for the price. We recieved wonderful service from Murray, who was looking after our table. He was friendly and very helpful with any questions we had about the wines and menu. We will definitely be returning, maybe we'll try breakfast next time and see if it's just as good!

We stayed for one night. Very clean room with a super comfy bed. Smaller property to other Spicers properties so room felt smaller but still great. Lovely breakfast the next morning (I had kimchi chicken waffles - delish! - and great coffee). Love the 11am checkout so we didn't have to rush. Good service.

After finding ourselves in an accommodation pickle with our two little dogs at peak holiday season, the manager Jake kindly moved things around to fit us in to what was a huge and luxurious pet friendly suite.Upon arrival, we were greeted with such warmth from the management team Jake and Lara, which continued with all staff throughout our stay. Our room had a welcome note to both humans and furry friends along with plush dog beds, bowls and dog treats.Our little doggos were welcome in the restaurant (courtyard & patio) and rooftop bar along with the room.During our short 3 night stay, we ate dinner at the restaurant twice along with breakfast. The food is second to none. Inventive and delicious, the head chef should be highly commended.I am truly shocked to read some of the negative reviews as I could not find one fault, from the luxurious room including one of the best stocked mini bars I’ve ever seen and the ginormous bath to the outstanding food and hospitality shown by every single staff member towards us and our dogs. I could not recommend Spicers at Balfour more and we will most certainly be back.

We had the pleasure of stopping at the Spicers Balfour Hotel after a 'cocktail cruise', and was beyond surprised at this hidden gem that I never knew existed.The decor and interior was elegant and sophisticated, the view from the bar was stunning with greenery and good shots of the Story Bridge. And Sebastian the bartender was a legend, didn't make a bad drink all night!Not only will I be back in the future, i'll be bringing my friends when they come up to Brisbane and want to explore.Cheers!

A little disappointed. Room although well appointed, had close up view of a brick wall, was located very close to entrance and reception, so was a little noisy. Rooftop bar was an anticlimax, view of rusty rooms and a corner of the Storey Bridge. Drink prices astronomical.
