Booked the Pool Cabana room for $1100 a night - Such loud music outside room until late. Terrible service. Everything delayed luggage to room, no assistance to find entrance into hotel room - which is off the pool also and not at all private. Nightmare room for the cost. Overrated hotel

Excellent stay at the Emporium South Bank. Room was spacious and had all the amenities I needed. I loved the rooftop pool with its amazing views. The staff is really professional and super helpful. Shoutout to Louisa (at check-in) and Nelson (at concierge area). The location is hard to beat. It’s close to everything really. And there’s a train station right next to the hotel. My favorite breakfast spot was the nearby Mi Casa cafe. I highly recommend staying there if you’re visiting Brisbane.

Tragic . Really let down by terrible service. The worst I’ve experienced in a five star hotel in many many years of business travel . I’ve stayed there many times but never again . Service was either non existent or hopeless .
