Great, safe location and helpful staff members. The room we stayed in was comfortable enough and had a great view, but was tired - the carpet was worn out, especially around the edges and the cleaning of the margins of the room was not thorough (bar fridge, around the bathroom vanity, air vent above the toilet - not hard to do when there is attention to detail). The shower leaked to the bathroom floor, and there was a bit of mould here and there, but that's hard to beat in Nth Qld. Overall, we enjoyed the stay, and the kids enjoyed the pool - even though it is in need of repairs (crumbling wall on one side). Would be good to see a bit of $$ spent to address these issues. All tax deductible!

There is no undercover off street parking accessible from the hotel, only underground parking in walking distance to the hotel which you hsvr to pay an addition fee for ($15 per night). This car park is also very low so won’t fit any higher vehicles or ones with roof racks etc. The room we stayed in had no balcony, however the windows weren’t able to open either which made it a very stuffy and closed in experience in a tiny room. Beds and pillows were not very comfortable. Overall was an ok stay for a very brief stop over, however glad we weren’t staying any longer.

Nigh perfect experience
Very kind staff. Some fixtures could do with upgrading like peeling showerhead abd scuff marks near the entrance on the carpet, but the staff more than made up for it with their prompt service with fixing the internet and allowing us to re enter the room after checkout to retrieve things. The view that came with the room is exceptional. The attached cafe also has great and fresh offerings. The markets on Sunday is just below on flinders street. For location you cannot do better.

This is my 3rd time staying at Hotel Grand chancellor, evidently they’re my first choice of course. So quiet, affordable, clean, peaceful, central to everything & amazing staff. Did I a mention the best river and views as this is the tallest building. At night the view is even more spectacular from the balcony. I love the secure and affordable parking although as a suggestion, I wish there was an internal/direct access between the car park & the hotel rather than going through the back especially when it’s raining or late at night. Overall you are the best and definitely the food was so great too, especially with your 24hr room service 😍👏
