CBD map for hotels in the city. Please book as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. You can travel by train and/or bus to the stadium so City, South Brisbane and West End hotels will all be convenient. There is a new pedestrian walkway from Milton Railway Station to the stadium. Milton is the first stop on the Ipswich line after Roma Street Station and the Transit Centre.
