Punthill Apartment Hotel Brisbane

Punthill Apartment Hotel is part of the unique and hip posse of boutique hotels popping up around Brisbane’s inner city.

Located in the whisper quiet leafy locale of Spring Hill’s Astor Tce, Punthill offers Brisbane guests a fabulous mix of funky, vintage and cutting edge contemporary, from the badminton court, astro turf BBQ pavilion and roof terrace pool to the luxe rooms and the vintage style guest bikes in the foyer.

Accommodation here is spacious studio-style sleeping 2 or 3 with a king bed (and extra single accordingly) and private balcony and each is fully equipped with a state of the art kitchenette that includes a hot plate, fridge and Euro appliances. Rooms also feature a chic work desk station, iPod docking and flat screen TV.

Otherwise, quirky touches include a faux bird in a cage on the balconies (with matching themed bird stencil art wallpaper in the corridors) and artwork in the bathrooms that was done by the children of the local inner city primary school.

Cosy up inside with room service at The Punthill otherwise all day dining until late is provided in what would have to be Brisbane’s funkiest hotel foyer restaurant bar – Jak + Hill, a foodie’s hub carved out of an old car park.

Otherwise nearby bars and eateries less than five minute’s walk away include O Bar, Two Cups espresso and nearby attractions include St John’s Cathedral, the heritage Spring Hill Baths and the convict-built Old Windmill.

Need to know: Parking is available in an adjacent car park at cheap rates and the Punthill is a five-ten  minute walk to both the eat, drink and shopping precincts of Brisbane CBD and nightlife in Fortitude Valley. Visit-worthy local bars include The Gresham Bar in the heritage-listed NAB bank, sand-stone walled O Bar and funky Jak + Hill while restaurants include Bishamon Japanese in a historic terrace, and Creole Soul Kitchen.
