I’ve been meaning to do this for a long time!! I travel a lot these days and when I have to stay in Brisbane overnight, I try and always stay at the Emporium. My wife and I were lucky enough to stay at the Emporium when it first opened in 2007 and it still looks as good now as it did then!! Well done to the maintenance guys keeping it looking as new.
I love the bar – Its great to have that final nightcap before going to bed when you’ve had a challenging day. When you travel alone for business, it’s nice that the barman sees and recognises that you are on your own, and starts up a chat when they’re able to so.
I usually have to book last minute, so I have had many different rooms here, there all good.
There is the best French café right next door that has great coffee and everything to eat that’s French.
The hotel is in “Fortitude Valley” and it’s a short stroll to all the nightclubs and restaurants you could ever need.
Even though the city is a short cab ride away. If you are in a hurry and don’t have the time to go to far for dinner, there are good places to eat within the Emporium Precinct.
As I travel a lot, and stay all over, I would have to say that the guys on the front...I’ve been meaning to do this for a long time!!

As I travel a lot, and stay all over, I would have to say that the guys on the front door (who seem to double as luggage guys and concierge) would be the best that I have ever come across. Friendly and knowledgeable.
Most other 5 star hotels are making cost savings and cutting backs It’s great to see that the Emporium still gives you free water & chocolates at the turndown service.
As I mentioned my wife and I have stayed many times, but I have stayed at the hotel on my own more that 10 times according to the hotel! So last week there was a personal note from the General Manager & a nice bottle of red wine. This is the sort of nice touch that makes this hotel stand out from any many others and is why I will continue to stay here.More
