Emporium Hotel South Bank has cemented its position on discerning travellers’ wish lists, taking out the coveted number two spot in the 2024 Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards for the Best of the Best Hotels in Australia and the only Brisbane property included in the top 10.
Emporium Hotel South Bank was singled out for its inimitable mix of elevated design, fine dining, wellness amenities and bespoke service in close proximity to Brisbane CBD and the South Bank Cultural Precinct, promoting both an indulgent city stay and a relaxing retreat.
The iconic 143-suite luxury boutique hotel offers six sumptuous food and beverage options onsite, including 24-hour in-room dining; and a spectacular 23m infinity pool terrace and bar with enviable views of the cityscape, Brisbane River and South Bank Parklands.
The annual Travellers’ Choice Awards Best of the Best category recognises the top one per cent out of eight million listings worldwide on Tripadvisor.
This distinction is awarded to those who consistently achieve a high volume of above-and-beyond reviews and ratings from the Tripadvisor community across a 12-month period.
