“This bayside hotel is a reliable choice for families especially, with its proximity to both the airport and local attractions like Wynnum Foreshore. The updated facilities and diverse accommodation styles, including apartments, offer options for longer stays. I was particularly drawn to Hepburns, the on-site steakhouse, promising an elevated dining experience beyond typical pub fare.”
