Ever thought of heading into your local bank branch and checking in for the night? Nah, neither had we until we saw the Adina Apartment Hotel in Brisbane. Located in a magnificent 1920s Art Deco bank building, the Adina is now one of Australia’s grandest hotels, with a prime location overlooking the Brisbane River in the heart of the Queensland capital. This Brissie staycation/vacation is just a three-minute walk to Queen Street Mall, and only a 15-minute walk to the restaurants, bars and parks of South Bank. Elegance, style, sophistication. 

Immerse yourself in this grand historic building suitably in the center of Brisbane. The Adina Apartment Hotel Brisbane is heritage-listed and artfully restored with a classic yet contemporary design. Located on George Street, the ground floor lobby space celebrates the building’s Art Deco origins. A stone’s throw from Queen Street Mall and Queen’s Wharf, or a brief stroll will find you in amongst buzzing Southbank’s cool bars, restaurants and parklands.

The building has a wonderful and rich history. Initially built to accommodate the Queensland Government Savings Bank, it opened in 1922. Considered exceptional from its infancy, particularly the ground floor banking chamber showcasing its immense size, lavish columns, ornate ceiling, detailed cornices and marble finishes.

Designed with contemporary décor, the rooms are a choice of spacious studio, one, two and three-bedroom apartments, unrestrained in their comfort. With fully equipped kitchens or kitchenette, in-room laundry, separate living areas, free WiFi and 24-hour reception, you’ll think you are still living at home. Work out in the fully equipped gymnasium, splash around in the heated indoor swimming pool or park your car in the onsite parking with Brisbane airport only a 20-minute drive.
