Hotel Information: A soaring, arched ceiling with a large bronze-and-glass chandelier greets visitors in the atrium-style lobby of the Marriott Brisbane. A marble floor of beige and white diamonds and a central flower display leads towards the reception desk. Beyond pillars to either side, brightly coloured armchairs and sofas group around low tables, and abstract artworks hang on the walls. The lobby flows into the bar and restaurant areas where the mostly corporate clients relax. The hotel also has a Howard Street entrance with a small sitting area and valet parking, from which an elevator leads to the main lobby.

Insider tip: The Marriott Brisbane is just a block from the Brisbane River, which lies directly behind the colonial Customs House. The riverbanks provide ample opportunities for walking, jogging, and cycling and also pass the Botanic Gardens and trendy Riverside and South Bank restaurant and entertainment precincts. Visitors can follow the river for kilometres eastwards to the suburb of New Farm and beyond, and return on the city ferries. Riverside is the nearest ferry stop to the Marriott Brisbane.
