We stayed for our first few weeks at a place called Bridgewater Terraces. I'd highly recommend it, it's in Kangaroo Point with apartments on the river front and you can catch the cross-river ferry into the CBD. It's very central but the tropical gardens and pool give it more of a resort feel than the other hotels in Kangaroo Point.

It's not the cheapest place but they'll give good discounts if you're staying for a week or more.

Cheers

Also have a look at www.brisbanebound.com. - I have spoken with Rob a few times via e-mail and he is lovely and extremely helpful - we just decided we didn't need a 3 bedroom furnished house for just the 2 of us at 1st - but again several people recommended them to me - the houses are meant to be lovely!
OMG how spoilt are we going to be? All these places are so lovely. Like you we don't feel the need for a house straight away, well not for a few weeks anyway. Hvae tried to k you, but won't let me.

Hi Sarah - 'Mrs JTL' has stayed in Manhattan on Newstead and thoroughly recommends the apartments.....somebody else on the forum stayed there as well (can't remember who) and also though they were lovely and in a good location. John Ferrier tha manager has been very nice to deal with.
