Mantra on Mary Brisbane

Clean & big room. Great service. Great location.

The smell. The corridors in between the lift and the room smelled really awful. It was like heavy fragrance was used to cover up another bad smell. Smelled like lemongrass with putrid undertones. This smell was only in the public areas of the hotel, and didn't really impact once I was in the room. But it did make me feel sick every time I left/came back to the hotel. I wouldn't come back to this hotel purely because of this smell.

The room was nice. Having gym and pool was good. Location in the city was also great

For starters I asked for early check in and was told I would get a call if the room was ready early (before 2). At 1 I ended up going in and asking to see if maybe it was ready - shocker, it was. Thanks for the call! Was also told you don’t service the rooms / only once a week. Feel as though that should be stated before booking. Being in a room right next to a construction sight was a massive impact on our stay. It started at 7 every morning but Sunday. This made it impossible to enjoy the room and sleep past 7. We intentionally upgraded to a better room so we could enjoy it. There were also bandaids in the pool / your steam room also didn’t seem to work. Really not impressed. Will not be staying here again for personal leisure or work trips.
