King City View Room in Brisbane Marriott Hotel - Discover Queensland


Accommodation

No matter which of the 267 air-conditioned rooms you spend your stay in, you will be impressed by either cityscape or Brisbane River views. Gaze out across the Storybridge lit up like a colourful Christmas tree each night or down to the Kangaroo Point Cliffs illuminated for the rock climbers. Once you’ve taken in the panoramas, you will begin to notice the elements that make the Marriott special.

Luggage space to get your suitcase off the floor including draws so you can make yourself at home is a luxury not usually afforded in city, but is a welcome change.

The king beds will entice you to fall into their depths immediately and will deliver every ounce of comfort they promise. The wall mounted TV’s are placed perfectly in front of the beds so you can settle into some in-room entertainment whenever you like.

Step into the spacious bathrooms and revel in the separate shower and bath layout with huge centre mirror lit to apply the perfect makeup. You can even step out of a steaming hot shower and immediately use the mirror as, in true Marriott style, it is anti-fog. You will also find luxurious complimentary toiletries and hair dryers to use at your convenience.

If exercising on holidays isn’t your cup of tea, the Dome Spa Retreat is sure to impress. Massage, men’s services, manicures, foot baths, make up, facials, body wraps and scrubs, eye treatments, waxing, and couple’s treatments are all available at your leisure. Our DQ hot tip is to indulge in a couple’s treatment – this joint experience is enjoyed with your partner in the same room with talented masseurs that use delightfully scented oils, then the experience is finished with chocolate and champagne by the pool overlooking the Brisbane River.
