Business as usual at the Royal - refreshed, renewed, refurbished in 2011

A multi‐million dollar refurbishment of the 4½ star Royal on the Park has begun encompassing all 145 Deluxe Rooms, Foyer, Restaurant and Bar.

Completed earlier this year, “The Royal” as it is fondly known will be restored to its former glory as a place of traditional elegance, comfort and as a home away from home for guests.  The plans for refurbishment include all 145 Deluxe guest rooms, encompassing the replacement of carpets, guest furniture and bedding. The foyer, Walnut Restaurant and cocktail bar areas will also be refreshed with new seating, tables and the addition of crystal chandeliers and private degustation dining areas.

The design has been completed to enhance and complement the existing club‐like, traditional and comfortable feel of the Hotel. Built in 1969 as the vision of Mr Irvin Rockman CBE and Mr Jessel Rothfield to be one of the most impressive and expensive hotels in Brisbane at the time, the hotel was designed to make an architectural statement on the skyline to move the city forward and help grow Queensland’s tourism market.

The hotel features the CBD’s best location with uninterrupted views across the City Botanic Gardens from one whole side of the building and the largest suites and swimming pool of any Brisbane hotel. 

Not just a hotel, the property also hosts weddings, conferences, gala events and business meetings of all size.
