I stayed for a few nights while i was re-locating. It was uncomfortable and dirty. Not to mention the half way house for ex prisoners across the road with frequent police visits in the middle of the night. There was a mop and bucket outside my door with dirty water in it. This is so you could mop the shower... More

We stayed at Ellie's Guesthouse for a night. Not good for the money charged. A tiny room, no aircon, only a fan,very uncomfortable on a hot night. No soap.We decided to leave the next morning and found a 10-times better accommodation at Spring Hill, with a balcony view and soap and it was 4 dollars cheaper! The lady would not... More

I stayed at Ellie's Guesthouse for three days in a private room with shared bath room. I was visiting Brisbane to attend conference and was looking for quiet place to live at reasonable price. The outstanding feature of Ellie's Guesthouse is hospitality extended by the owners. They are ready to extend help and brief you about all possible activities in... More

Me and my girlfriend stayed here on two separate occasions on our backpacking tour of Australia. The room we had was on the top level right off of the kitchen, the room itself was by far the nicest of any place we had stayed in during our backpacking experience. The room was very spacious with a comfortable bed with a... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here for a couple of days at the beginning of our Australia adventure, and a couple days at the end. I have nothing but nice things to say about our stay here. Cleanliness was very important to us, and this place was spotless. The rooms are very clean, and there are two kitchens which are... More

Stayed for 2 nights while away from home with work. I was looking for budget accommodation without the backpacker/party all night experience ..... Ellie's certainly fit the bill for this. Will definitely be returning.

We stayed at this Guesthouse for 3 nights, It is in a great location in New Farm, close to restaurants & public transport etc. The rooms are tiny but reasonable clean however they are not serviced daily & for the price you pay that should be a no brainer. The maintenance of the place seems to be done on the... More

I love the location of this guest house. It is on a quiet street in the residential neighborhood. Grocery, deli, chemist within 3 min walking distance. There is a park with Saturday morning market within 10 min stroll. Bus stop to china town/fortitude valley just right in front of the guest house. A french cafe is located just across the... More
