The 5 Best Hotels for Families in Brisbane

1. Mantra Sierra Grand

Mantra Sierra Grand hotel in Brisbane
Hotel Phone: +61 (0)7 5668 5100
Part of a countrywide chain of functional and spacious hotels and apartments, the Mantra is in Broadbeach, a very appealing and non-touristy part of the Gold Coast. The apartments with one/two/three bedrooms are suitable for two/four/six people and feature open-plan living/dining areas, full-sized kitchens, and laundry facilities. Bonuses are free car parking, a tennis court, and an in-house cinema for private viewings. Four tram stops from downtown Surfers Paradise and only a short stroll to the lovely pedestrian lane packed with bistros, an uncrowded beach, and the gigantic Pacific Fair shopping center.

2. Rydges South Bank

Rydges South Bank hotel in Brisbane
Hotel Phone: +61 (0)7 3364 0800
Along the main street through South Bank, a marvellous leisure/culture precinct beside Brisbane River, Rydges recently had an A$30-million-dollar upgrade. All accommodations cater very well for families, especially the suites with kitchenettes and two bedrooms (each with a bathroom). The main selling point is the location: surrounded by places to eat and drink, family-friendly attractions (e.g. performing arts center, art gallery, and museum), and within minutes of two extraordinary (free) attractions facing the river – a rainforest and tropical ‘beach’.

In two soaring towers, the hundreds of rooms, suites, and apartments are particularly elegant and views from some are jaw-dropping. The serviced apartments feature laundry facilites, separate living/dining areas, full-sized kitchens, and up to four bedrooms, while the outstanding facilities include four pools. And the location is perfect: in the middle of the Gold Coast’s prime tourist strip and just minutes from Australia’s famous beach.

For families, three or four people can fit into most rooms, special family rooms can accommodate five, and the (one-only) Penthouse can sleep eight. Best of all is the location: a two-minute stroll from an abundance of amenities, the world-famous Surfers Paradise Beach, and tram to Brisbane and the Brisbane airports.
