What to Look for in Brisbane Accommodation

Hotel accommodation in Brisbane Australia

Brisbane is the third largest city in Australia, and is the center of the fastest growing area of the Country. The Downtown, Central Business District is the site of the original European settlement and is situated on a point of land jutting into the Brisbane River. The Brisbane Botanical Gardens create a wonderful oasis, bounded on three sides by the Brisbane River and adjacent to the Brisbane Downtown area. Accommodation on or nearer the Brisbane Botanical Gardens is very desirable.

Brisbane is situated inland some 23 Kilometres form the mouth of the Brisbane River at Moreton Bay, so does not have any beaches adjacent to the city. Gold Coast and Surfers Paradise Day Tours leave from Brisbane, but you might wish to check out accommodation in the Surfers Paradise / Gold Coast area if you want to stay locally. Stretching for many Kilometeres to the north of the city, the Sunshine Coast and Noosa can be reached on day tours, with Fraser Island, claiming to be the largest sand island in the World, is also is a popular destination for eco-travel.

There are many kilometers of pathways that follow the Brisbane River and bicycle hire is available. A very pleasant few hours can be spent strolling the foreshores of the Brisbane River by taking the path from the Botanical Gardens. The Brisbane City Lunchtime Cruise Australia is a great way to see the scope of Brisbane city from the River.

Noosa and the Noosa Heads area is very scenic, and there are a lot of Noosa and Sunshine Coast Hotels, apartments and resorts available.

Lamington National Park
To the west of Brisbane lies the Lamington National Park. The birdlife is amazing, and the Park offers the chance to get up really close to Australian Wildlife in the wild. Binna Burra Mountain Lodge Beechmont is worth considering if you want to spend some time in the Lamington National Park area.
