my thought: - Location is very good. Lovely area of Brisbane near a lovely suburb. - Unexpected upgrade on our first night! However following return from a Fraser Island trip out standard sized room was a bit small although nice enough. - Very reasonable price! - Front desk was only maned for a few hours each day which for a...

This hostel really felt like home! It's a nice building (house) in a residental area close to restaurants, supermarket and quite close to bars and pubs (about a 10 minute walk). I walked to the centre and it took me about 25 minutes. The dorm was very nice and clean and the bed was really good. I stayed in a... More

Even though I was there for only a short stay, the owner kindly offered great supermarket, eating and sightseeing tips for my 24hrs in Brisbane. Opting for a 4 bed room, Bowen Terrace provided great value for money as hostel-style accommodation, the downstairs rooms being quieter than upstairs, and conveniently closer for east access to the showers and kitchen.

This is a great snag, the people are really friendly and accommodating. We have come back to stay again in this fantastic Queenslander. The pool is great to cool down when you need. Beautiful place and a great location with a perfect touch of Queensland Australian culture in the bosom of the valley. Enjoy Australia

When I stumbled across the Bowen Terrace website I book marked it as a "last resort" in the event I could not find a central... More

Looking at the room-types offered (e.g. some dorms with shared bathrooms), I knew that there was a back-packer element to Bowen Terrace, however we opted for a room with with an en-suite, so I thought it was a little more like a B&B, especially given the price they were charging for such a room. However upon arrival, it was clear... More

It's not luxury accomodations but it's reasonably priced, clean, centrally located, and the staff is very friendly. There are individual rooms and hostel style as well, refrigerator and tea service in room, as well as a fully equipped common area kitchen.

I was joining a cruise out of Brisbane last month and needed one night's accommodation. Bowen Terrace International Accommodation fitted the bill. The house itself is a Victorian Bungalow, spacious and airy. The location is easy to fine, has a great French Bakery very close,other good eateries, and a supermarket 10 mins walk away.Bus stop at door. The room was... More
