The verdict

The Pullman, fourth of our twenty, is the airport hotel with the most on its page, and what it offers is a covered walk to a flight, not a ride to a ship. Accor lists a resort-style pool and a 20 m lap pool, a rooftop lounge and a covered walk to the domestic terminal, 600 m by its own count.

It publishes no ride to the cruise terminal, which our routing puts 9.1 road miles (14.6 km) away, about 20 minutes with no traffic. The A$9 (about US$6) shuttle on its transport page runs between the airport's domestic and international terminals — a flight tool, not a ship one.

Apron Restaurant & Bar has a private dining room, and Accor says breakfast is offered but prints no price. Undercover parking sits beneath the hotel for an extra fee that isn't stated. A day-stay package starts from A$195 (about US$135), 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and tax status isn't printed.

I'd choose it when you land late and want a covered walk from the terminal to a bed; what you're buying is the airport, not the cruise terminal.

Book it if

  • You're flying in and want a covered walk to the hotel.
  • A lap pool and a rooftop lounge sound right before a ship day.
  • A day room between flights would help.

Look elsewhere if

  • You want a ride to the cruise terminal from the hotel.
  • You need the parking price before you book.
  • Dinner in the city matters more to you than a short walk to the airport.

Map pins from the Esri World Geocoder: address matches, except that Pullman and ibis Brisbane Airport share one pin at 2 Dryandra Road and the Pullman pin is a name match. The terminal pin is Esri’s street point for 1 Cruise Terminal Drive, not a berth, and the airport pin is a name match inside the international terminal.

By our routing the airport is 1.5 road miles from the hotel, and the walk to the domestic terminal is covered.

  • Accor puts the domestic terminal 600 m away, a 12-minute walk or a two-minute drive.
  • A day-stay package from A$195 runs 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. — the page doesn't say whether tax is included.
  • Four room types, 132 rooms — Accor says family rooms take up to four guests.
  • Accor prints a day-stay price and no overnight rate — so ask for the full total before you pay.

Still unconfirmed
