Choose accommodation that is located centrally The first thing to consider when choosing accommodation in Brisbane is the location. Look for accommodation that is centrally located in Brisbane CBD. Whist this may be a little more expensive that the outer suburbs, the money you save on transport will make this most cost-efficient. 2. Check prices online and then book directly Undoubtedly, jumping on a hotel booking website is the first port of call when looking for accommodation in Brisbane. Whilst this is the best way to find accommodation, it isn’t the best way to get a great deal. You can save 10-15% by calling the hotel direct, eliminating or reducing the commission they would otherwise pay to the hotel booking website. 3. Check for amenities Before booking accommodation in Brisbane, look to see what amenities are included in the nightly rate. Check to see if amenities such as Wi-Fi and parking are included or going to be additional expenses. Accommodation that offers such amenities for free cab will save you a lot of money. 4. Choose a serviced apartment over a hotel Whilst hotels are the most popular form of accommodation in Brisbane they are also the most expensive. For a more affordable accommodation option – especially if staying 3 or more nights – consider a serviced apartment. Doing so will offer many benefits, including cheaper rates.
