The Benson Court Motel is a great place to stay if you are visiting Brisbane. The rooms are great and very clean with great amenities. I completed a after hours check in and the instructions were clear and simple. Location is amazing being close to public transport, restaurants and shopping. If you are keen, it is a great walk along the river to Brisbane City.

The bed was a little uncomfortable for me but reasonable and maybe just fine for some people. Due to the amazing location there was a bit of road noise so I wore earplugs to sleep.

The rooms were spacious and the bedding was comfortable. We had a small lounge and a dining table also. I really enjoyed the outlook onto the private courtyard. We had a hire car, so the location suited us as a base, and it was only a short stroll to the shops for groceries and a few dining options.

It would have been handy to have some basic crockery and cutlery. Just a bowl, knife, fork spoon would have been useful as the room is set up for a basic level of self-catering (fridge, microwave, dining table) It was great that the rooms were serviced daily however as we were holidaying, we weren't prepared for the pre-9am housekeeping! So we opted to pass on this service for two of our three mornings.

The room was basic, but clean and had everything that I needed for my one night stay. Having a proper sink for washing up etc was good, though I did not need it on this occasion. The motel was handy to the city and the university, via public transport, so suited me well. Being close to Toowong Village meant it was easy to get to the local pub, restaurants and cafés, as well as a train and bus stops.

The door lock was not what you'd expect in a hotel these days and was rather flimsy. There was no heavier bar latch or chain to compensate. A solo female guest might feel a bit nervous. With a rail line at the back and main road at the front, I was worried about noise when I got there, but neither bothered me and I slept well.

I have stayed at the Benson Court a few times over the last few years. It is very convenient to the University of Queensland and to downtown Brisbane with bus, train and ferry connections close by. It has always been clean and functional. My room this time had clearly been refurbished and was very nice.

While the location is great it also means that it is a little noisy, particularly with a train line close by. Reception closes at 6pm but this isn't a problem as they will arrange to make your room keys available to you after hours.

The staff at the Benson Court Motel make all the difference - they're friendly, helpful, and accommodating. It's run by a lovely young couple who clearly knew the local area well and could help us with directions and public transport etc. They were just delightful. The motel's location is easily walkable from Toowong Village (small shopping mall), the local train station, bus stop, and ferry/ river cat stop, as well as a plethora of restaurants, cafes, and pubs. It's also accessible via a short bus ride or 5 minute car journey to the University of Queensland, and bus ride or 10 minute car journey to Indooroopilly Shopping Centre (massive mall). The motel's wifi was reliable and fast.

Kitchen well equipped. Bed comfortable. Close to the shopping centre.

There was no light over the dining table and no light over the easy chairs to enable reading. Bathroom and shower quite small. Refrigerator badly needed the icebox defrosting and the door of the icebox was broken.

Great location, 3 mins walk to bus stop, 8 mins walk to toowong village, which is mall where both coles and wool worth are situated in. Clean and spacious room with all required facilities, including a microwave, a toaster, basic kitchen utensils and a sink, an opened pantry I'd say. Elderly friendly bathroom with handrail and shower chair installed.

Nothing. Perfect stay.

Small motel in the Toowong district. Just 400 metres from shops/restaurants, and similar distance to rail station and bus stops. Room was comfortable and very well equipped. Car parking was easy with some under cover spaces - even enough room for an RV (not undercover!). Staff were brilliant, friendly and very helpful. There is a laundry room on site, just $3 a wash, including powder. No hesitation in recommending.

Nothing

The motel is just a few steps away from the Toowong village and the bus stop to the CBD is right beside the motel. The studio is equipped with nearly everything and it feels like home.

The free wifi and the data signal for my phone is slow and weak. And since the room is right beside the road, the noise from the cars outside could constantly annoying you. After 2 a.m., when the city is asleep, you then can finally fall asleep. And the room is dark from the bed. But the bathroom is quite bright during the day. This is just my personal preference. I like sunshine on my bed.:)

Great location, close to shopping. 6 munute drive to the University Unit was clean and comfortable and quiet given proximity to street and reception area. There was no milk in the fridge but despite reception being closed, staff were prompt to deliver some milk to the room.

Though there was a table and four dining chairs, there was only a single arm chair. Another armchair would gave been ideal.
