The Calile Hotel

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ my favourite hotel in Brisbane

Not worth the price! The worst club sandwich I have ever had. Cold with stale bread and dry bacon. Then the lights in the room go out because the iron short circuits 20 mins after I used it. Happens regularly apparently. For the price this was an incredibly disappointing experience.

Beautifully designed hotel, but overrun We had a lovely stay, barring our experience at the pool. The hotel is stunningly designed, with every aspect considered and beautiful - including its main feature - the pool, is probably one of the nicest designs I’ve seen. However the pool area is much too small for the size of the hotel / number of guests, so it felt cramped and was difficult to get even a sun lounger to share let alone two for two people. There were also a ton of families - which I love children, but this is not a pool where there’s space for jumping, splashing and playing - where kids are running along the sides constantly and screaming. It was that full at some points that you couldn’t swim, you could dip and stand but it was so full of people that the water actually looked a bit cloudy from all the sunscreen and people in the water. It slightly ruined my experience as I’d so looked forward to staying at this hotel, having travelled from the UK, and enjoying the facilities of the hotel. Otherwise the spa is top notch, as was Hellenika where we had dinner.
