We had bridge/city/river view and its a beautiful outlook. Room itself was very nicely appointed without any issues.
The location is very handy for the entertainment precinct that Felons bar/grill is part of, but it is slightly out of the way in terms of CBD sites - but that also obviously has its pluses. Loved the close proximity to the riverside walkway, enabling a nice (and spectacular) walk day or night.
Pool is gorgeous and the outlook from pool area one of the coolest in Brisbane (on a river bend enabling views in both directions). However the pool is pretty tiny for the size of the hotel (bit of a juggle to have personal space if more than ten people are in it), and only has ten pool loungers in a quite small pool area, so guests may not get lounger or even somewhere to put your belongings on nice pool weather days.
Also, the bridge does completely shadow the pool area a bit earlier in the day than expected, but the bridge looming above is a strong/unique/beautiful visual feature.
Roof bar area is nice and has the same gorgeous outlook as pool though again its slightly small for size of hotel.
On a minor/picky note we found the paintings in all hotel public areas (nearly all portraits of celebrities or somewhat famous people) covered too much of the walls - dozens of them in some places - to a point where its cluttered looking and overwhelming.
