Thai-owned Amora Group has revealed its latest acquisition Amora Brisbane, transformed into a five-star leisure and business hotel after a AU$30 million (USD20 million) remodelling. The CBD hotel joins the group's expanding portfolio of six owned and operated hotels and resorts under the Amora brand in Australia and Thailand. Previously the Novotel Brisbane, Amora purchased the property from CDL Hospitality Trusts in 2020.

Located in the prime CBD area, Amora Brisbane is a short stroll from Central Railway Station, The Queen St Mall, Treasury Casino and Suncorp Stadium; and a five-minute ride from the entertainment precincts of Howard Smith Wharves and Fortitude Valley. For business travellers, a quick 15-minute ride takes them to the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre. With Amora Brisbane, Amora Group is positioned to gain momentum from the MICE and events sectors, boosted by Brisbane's up and coming status as a key sports destination of Australia. Its sterling line-up of international sports events and the 2032 Brisbane Olympics will place the city under the global spotlight.
