Emporium Hotel South Bank has launched its newest luxury penthouse suite for guests seeking the ultimate in sky high style, contemporary elegancy and spectacular views.
Occupying an enviable location on the 21st floor and providing 786 square metres of sophisticated interiors and quality finishes, the four-bedroom Parklands Suite is one of the largest luxury hotel penthouses in Australia.
Spacious and light, with a distinct Queensland palette, the penthouse boasts four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a powder room, three separate dining areas, two lounge rooms, an executive study, and a 15-metre infinity pool. There’s also a baby grand piano if you’re partial to tickling the ivories, and beautiful floral arrangements that create a sense of home the moment one enters the foyer.
Furnished in tranquil tones of blue, cream and sea foam with brass highlights, the penthouse has an authentically Australian aesthetic with sleek lines, modern amenities, parquetry flooring, and comfortable oversized furnishings in multiple dining and leisure zones which cater to every mood of the day and night.
There is a perfect balance between sleek lines and soft furnishings and the hotel’s signature elegant white orchids give the impression that the sub-tropical outdoor extends right into the living areas.
Minimalist but indulgent, the suite is complemented by a large, bright and generous living space designed around a 1.5m open gas fireplace and its very own bar, with two Vintec wine fridges curated by the hotel’s award winning Sommelier including a Remy Martin Louis 13, and if you’re in the mood for staying in, there’s dining for 10 guests inside or outside and a full chef’s kitchen.
Daylight pours in through floor-to-ceiling windows from which guests can enjoy expansive 270 degree views of the city, Brisbane River, South Bank Parklands and beyond, while high end finishes of a Calcutta marble kitchen bench, American oak herringbone wood floors, wool carpet and an integrated Bose Audio system and modern textural wallpaper add to the ultra-luxe feel.
But the real show-stopper is the master bedroom. Virtually a suite within a suite, it comprises a series of luxurious spaces including its own terrace and pool entrance, perfect for enjoying the sunshine, soft breezes and stunning Queensland sunsets.
The ensuite includes double sinks, separate lavatory and double deluxe rain showers. In keeping with five-star tradition, the bathroom has floor-to-ceiling windows, offering a gorgeous view over the river which guests can enjoy as they soak in the standalone tub.
A walk-in His & Hers wardrobe allows guests to completely unpack and relax with full length cupboards and beautiful shelving giving the Parklands Suite the feeling of a sophisticated apartment where guests can feel truly comfortable.
The suite’s piece de resistance is a wrap-around alfresco balcony which provides the perfect vantage to enjoy Brisbane’s growing skyline, features outdoor dining for eight, sun beds and a plush couch for lounging, and glimmering infinity pool with its Italian mosaic pearl pool tiles.
In addition to its large size, the balcony’s stunning vistas overlooking the Brisbane River and CBD give it that special wow-factor, making it perfect for entertaining.
The kitchen and dining areas cater for those staying for longer durations who want to dine in the comfort of their suite. A state-of-the-art full sized commercial chef’s kitchen boasts a custom island, sub-zero fridge, butler’s pantry and appliances by Gaggenau, with the option of having meals–from a boutique outdoor barbecue experience, à la carte or degustation–prepared by a private chef.
The latest wireless technology has been seamlessly installed throughout the penthouse to ensure an impeccable sound system that flows to every room, with independent ‘zones’ allowing guests to have different playlists playing simultaneously. The suite’s audio-visual, lighting and electronic blinds can be adjusted with a touch of an iPad, while Chrome cast allows them to access all their favourite streaming services with ease.
Parklands Suite guests will enjoy exclusive amenities and services, available either on a complimentary basis or at an additional charge, to ensure a stay is tailored to their needs. These exclusive experiences may include a cocktail masterclass, yoga on the balcony, a pilates program, in room massage, Champagne breakfast, high tea experiences and bespoke dining experience curated by the Emporium Executive Chef.
Other highlights include access to the hotel Maserati town car to take you to anywhere in a 3km radius including the arts and cultural precinct, CBD or one of the city’s many riverside parks. In addition, a personalised Pillow Menu, access to personal training and wellness program, welcome and departure gifts and bespoke itineraries and concierge services from a Les Clef’s d’or certified Concierge will ensure that the Parklands guest’s every whim is catered for.
