The new Capri by Fraser, Brisbane wins us over from the moment we check in. It is located in the heart of the CBD so is within walking distance of the Queen Street Mall, Eagle Street Pier and the City Botanical Gardens, which are perfect for an early morning jog or power walk.
We stay in a One Bedroom Executive room which is ideal for anyone needing to stay in town for an extended stay. It has separate living, kitchen and bedroom areas giving that all important space. The bathroom has a rainshower, bath and the natural fragrances of Malin + Goetz toiletries. The kitchen has a convection oven, cooktop and that must have accessory – the Nespresso coffee machine. Thankfully, the free WiFi is fast – a big plus in this tech-savvy, send-it-now world.
What we love most is the ambience of the property, with colourful art throughout as well as a can-do vibe. The property is designed around today’s 24/7 lifestyle, with the gym open all day and all night. It also has just opened Asana Restaurant with Pete Evans as consultant chef and menu designer and rising star Josh Harris at the helm.
Capri by Fraser also has a lovely swimming pool, lively bars, a laundry, a Delite Deli and an e-concierge to help out with any bookings of queries.
