DavidUnited KingdomGreat staff, terrible room (suite 12)
Staff amazing.
Accommodation poor (suite 12).
For the same money we had two nights at the Emporium which was outstanding (room 1701).
AllanAustraliaThe duty manager handled our issue very well and we got upgraded without any fuss.
An urban inner city oasis with a nod to past architecture.
The hot water in our original unit did not work.
ClaireAustraliaI had a lovely time at Spicers Balfour reduced only slightly by the stress of getting in and out of the car park.

Questions about Spicers Balfour Brisbane
What time is check-in and check-out at Spicers Balfour Brisbane?
Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Spicers Balfour Brisbane allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Spicers Balfour Brisbane?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Does Spicers Balfour Brisbane have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Can I book a block of rooms at Spicers Balfour Brisbane?
The property lists meeting and banquet space, which usually means it handles group business — but how many rooms it will hold at once, for how long, and at what rate are set case by case and are not in any feed. Tell us the dates and the number of rooms and we'll get those terms from the property in writing before anything is charged.
Does Spicers Balfour Brisbane have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book Spicers Balfour Brisbane?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
