Preparing for your visit

Getting to us

We are very centrally located in Brisbane City. Brisbane is well connected by road, rail or water. We are located at 15 Adelaide Street (not inside this high rise) on the ground floor outside and next to Subway and above Snap Fitness. The nearest cross street to us is George Street, the closest hotel is the W, and the nearest landmark is City Hall.

We are around a 5 min walk to Uptown (was MYER), David Jones, right in the heart of the City.

By foot, scooter or bike

If you are close enough to walk, we recommend this. Pop us into your favourite map application and plan your route.

There are also lots of electric scooters and bikes available to rent. Allow a little extra time if you are not a pro at this. If you have your own bike or scooter, we can safely store it in the salon while you have your appointment.

By Public Transport

Bus, train or boat (plus cross-river rail and metro coming soon). Always good to plan ahead using the translink journey planner, as there can be disruptions: https://jp.translink.com.au/plan-your-journey/journey-planner

Bus

We are close to bus stops 45,46, 47 and 17, 18 and 19. Also, the Queen Street Bus Station is less than a 15 min walk.

Train

We are less than a 15 min walk from Central, Roma Street and South Brisbane Stations.

Ferry

The closest ferry stop to the salon is North Quay - again, less than a 15 min walk.

By Rideshare Or Taxi

Uber, Didi and Ola all operate extensively in and around Brisbane. Black and White and Yellow Cabs too. There is a taxi rank less than 5 min walk away, and we recommend having ride share pick up or drop off across the road from the salon where there is a loading zone or on George Street as close to the corner of Adelaide Street as possible.

Pre-book your transport as far in advance as possible and allow for delays.

Car

We recommend pre-booking your space at the following car parks, which can be done online in advance and ensures you a space at the best price.

Uptown Car Park (Was MYER) - entrance off Elizabeth Street: Book Parking At Uptown

Queens Plaza - entrance off Edward Street: https://www.queensplaza.com.au/parking

Wilsons Car Park - Brisbane Quarter - entrance from W hotel on North Quay: https://www.wilsonparking.com.au/parking-locations/queensland/brisbane-cbd/brisbane-quarter/?entry=12-31-2022,03:07pm&exit=12-31-2022,04:07pm&carParkFeature=

Remember to allow extra time to park and walk to the salon - aiming to arrive at the car park 20min before your appointment is ideal.
