My stay at the W Brisbane was fantastic overall, but there were a few areas for improvement. The room was spacious and luxurious, making me feel right at home. However, I was a bit disappointed that the mineral vitality pools didn't open until later in the morning, which made it tough for early risers like me. Still, the attentive staff and gorgeous amenities made my experience nice.

I didn't try the hotel's dining options much since there are so many places nearby, but what I did order for in-room dining was fresh and delicious. I definitely want to check out more of the food options next time I visit.

The amenities were impressive, particularly the mineral pools and the spa, which looked inviting. But, I was a bit bummed they opened later in the morning, as I wanted to use them early in the day. The sauna and steam room were also nice, but a couple's area would have been ideal.
