River King Room: the one most people picture

Same size class as the City King — about 40 square metres — but facing the Brisbane River and South Bank, with a writing desk the city rooms do not list.

Why we put it in our plan

Our weekend plan has you in the room twice when the light matters: briefly after check-in at 3 pm, and late on Saturday night after the Sky Deck. From a river room you see the Neville Bonner Bridge you will walk on Sunday, and South Bank on the other side. That is the whole argument for paying the difference.

What to weigh

The hotel does not say which floors the River King Rooms are on, and views from lower floors will be different from higher ones. We do not promise a floor, and nobody honest can. If a high floor matters, say so in your request and we will ask.

If you need handrails in the bathroom, the River Accessible Room is slightly larger on average, at 42 square metres, with the same outlook.

Compare it with all nine categories, or send your dates through the form below and choose "River King Room".

Send us your weekend dates

Tell us when you arrive and leave, how many of you there are and which room you are after. Our room desk checks availability and the current rate at The Star Grand for those dates, then writes back by email with what we found — usually the same day.

A request is not a booking and we never ask for card details on this site. If you like what we send, the reservation itself is made with the hotel or with the booking partner that holds the room.

How we are paid: if your request turns into a confirmed stay, the hotel or the booking partner that completes the reservation pays us a commission. You pay the same rate either way — see our revenue disclosure.

We use your details only to answer this request. No card details, no newsletter. Not the hotel's own booking form — the official site is star.com.au/brisbane.

Thank you — your request reached our desk. We will reply by email, usually within one working day.
