Emporium Hotel South Bank

Emporium South Bank is Brisbane most flamboyant five-star stay, all jewel tones, chandeliers and a rooftop infinity pool overlooking the river and city skyline. It sits within the South Bank precinct, so the parklands, galleries and riverside restaurants are a short stroll away. Service is polished and the champagne bar in the lobby is a destination in itself. Ask for a room on a higher floor facing the city, and head up to the rooftop at dusk when the skyline lights come on.
