We stayed here for 3 days en route home from Brisbane. First class service all the way. Arriving at the Empire our jaws dropped when we saw the atrium. It is huge anmd elaborately decorated. There are lots of attentive staff around, most of whom are happy to tell you about the hotels history and talk you through everything from... more

The previous reviews pretty much sum up this place. It used to be a palace and boy does it live up to expectations. The lobby and atrium area are awesome with the most expensive crystal camel you will ever see. You had your breakfast on the lower level with Aspreys of London dinner service and silver cutlery laid out as... more

I was not in the main... more

I stayed here for a work do for one and half nights and i found the place to be absolutly amazing. After spending a night in the Jungle coming to this place was great. We stayed in a deluxe room which was in the main building and our room was mainly gold and all marble in the bathroom. One time... more

The hotel lobby is stunning at first sight. The environment is good and the staff service is satisfactory. The room is just fine but don't expect it's really like a good 5 star hotel room. The most disappointed part is the restaurants. We tried both lunch and seafood dinner at two separate restaurants. They are expensive, but the food quality... more
