Lux 35th floor 2br 2bath, Infinity pool, Gym, Wifi

First Impressions

When I first walked into Lux 35th floor 2br 2bath, Infinity pool, Gym, Wifi, honestly, the name pretty much tells you everything you need to know — but it doesn’t prepare you for that view. Being on the 35th floor in Brisbane CBD means you’re looking out over the entire city, and I mean, it’s actually breathtaking. This four-star property sits right on Queen Street, which puts you smack in the middle of everything without the chaos you’d expect from such a central spot.

The Space Itself

The apartment feels more like a friend’s really nice place than a typical hotel room — which makes sense since it’s a proper two-bedroom, two-bathroom setup. The kitchen is fully equipped, not just one of those tiny hotel kitchenettes that can barely handle instant coffee. You know what I loved? The living area actually has enough space to spread out, and both bedrooms are generous enough that you don’t feel like you’re stepping on each other. The bathrooms are modern and well-appointed, though nothing too fancy — just solid, clean, and functional.

Location & Getting Around

Queen Street is honestly one of the best addresses you could ask for in Brisbane. You’re walking distance to the Queen Street Mall, which means shopping and dining are literally at your doorstep. The botanical gardens are just a short stroll away, and if you want to hit South Bank, it’s an easy walk across the river. I actually found myself walking everywhere instead of taking transport — something I rarely do in most cities. The building itself sits among office towers and other residential high-rises, so you get that proper city living feel.

Amenities That Actually Matter

The infinity pool is the real showstopper here — it’s on one of the upper floors with those same incredible city views. Swimming while looking out over Brisbane’s skyline is pretty special, I’ll give them that. The gym is well-equipped enough for a proper workout, not just a couple of sad treadmills like some places. WiFi worked perfectly throughout the apartment, which honestly shouldn’t be noteworthy but you’d be surprised how many places still struggle with this basic necessity. There’s also parking available, which in the CBD is actually a big deal.

Why Guests Love It

Look, couples seem to really get this place — and I can see why. There’s something romantic about being up so high with those views, plus having your own space to cook dinner or just relax without feeling like you’re in a typical hotel. The location means you can walk to a great restaurant for dinner, then come back to your own private retreat in the sky. At a 9.1 rating, guests clearly appreciate the combination of space, location, and those killer views. It’s not trying to be the fanciest place in town, but it delivers exactly what it promises — and sometimes that’s exactly what you want.
