Brisbane is the capital city of Queensland. While having all the attributes of a major city it has a more relaxed atmosphere than other Australian cities. Brisbane accommodation caters to a wide variety of visitors. It is a destination for both business travellers and holiday makers. And, is a jump-off point for many other wonderful Queensland holiday destinations.

Brisbane is a growing centre for business. The climate makes it a pleasurable place for meetings and conferences and the airport is located just fifteen kilometres north east of the central business district. There are a number of accommodation options available for the business traveller.

When a business trip is very short it is useful to be able to avoid the congestion of the central city. Hotels are available close to the airport. These are a convenient option for the business person flying in and out on a tight schedule. Taxis, an air train, hotel and scheduled buses all make commuting to meetings easy.

Looking for places to stay in Brisbane? No sweat, as the Australians say. Whether you are hiking and looking for adventure, coming with the whole family or the whole office staff, or staying for a night or a lifetime, you have a wide choice of accommodations.

One of the most popular ways to spend the night in Brisbane, if you are young and broke, is to choose one of the many hostels. Some offer mainly clean beds with cooking and bathing facilities, as well as great access to parks and beaches. Others mimic hotels, but have cheap rates and often a swinging group of noisy guest. But with pools, cafes, communal kitchens, game rooms, all night staff, and laundry rooms, the stay can be comfortable as well as fun.
