Royal Albert Hotel is the heart and soul of Brisbane. It sits adjacent to the Queen Street Mall, at the epicentre of the shopping, entertainment and attractions of Brisbane city. The hotel is an historic building with classic style and a history spanning 100 years. As a central base from which to experience the heart of the city, it is simply unmatched for central location and convenient access to the Queen Street Mall, the Myer Centre, the Casino and all the other CBD attractions, shopping and adventures. Accommodation is classic in style and contemporary in facilities. The deluxe rooms, suites and apartments give you room to breathe. Inside it is so quiet you can hear a pin drop. The outside stays outside. With management and staff, each guest becomes part of the family. The warmth is genuine and the service is caring. You will feel it the moment you walk in. Heart and Soul For 100 years, the ethos of this building has been woven into the fabric of the city. It is the heart and soul of Brisbane. You can sense it when the rich timber and bevel-cut glass doors open up, whisper quiet, as you approach them. You can see it in the faces of the management and staff who treat you as their personal guest not the occupier of a room. Welcome to the Royal Albert experience and the many things that make this boutique hotel quite remarkable. From the textured oil paint surfaces of historic Queensland paintings to the modern comforts of our superbly equipped suites, from the feeling of space throughout the hotel to the feeling of history in the beautiful ceiling roses, Royal Albert Hotel is the heart and soul of Brisbane. It is a concept we take very seriously indeed in our dedication to warm and caring service and the whole guest experience both inside and outside the hotel. Once you have stayed here, you will understand. History In June 1860 William Perry and his brother, George, arrived in Brisbane where they planned to set up a hardware business. Their brother Frederick later joined them and by the middle of August the 'Brisbane Courier' carried an advertisement announcing that, "Perry Brothers, Wholesale and Retail Ironmongers, Queen-street, have constantly on hand such essentials as Bullock Bows, Horse Shoes; Cross-cut, Pitsaw and Hand-saw Files, Putty, Pitch and Tar, American Stoves"…. the business thrived. In 1865 fine new premises were built on Elizabeth Street – the sites of today's Henkelmann's Building and the Irish Club. When William Perry died in 1891, his eldest son WHF (Herbert) Perry was 27 years old. He and his brother, George, carried on the business founded by their father and uncles. After an initial period of difficult trading in the economic slump and record floods of the 1890s, the business thrived under the management of the Perry brothers. To coincide with their 50th anniversary, on 13 August 1910 Perry brothers announced the construction of Perry House on the corner of Elizabeth and Albert Streets. The construction of Perry House occupied a considerable period of time, beginning in 1911 and not reaching completion until early 1913. Frequent strikes appear to have slowed progress. Perry House was the highest building in Brisbane on its completion and its construction was followed with great interest by the Brisbane community. Perry House was then the tallest building in Brisbane with every floor occupied by the Perry Bros business activities and storage of goods. An extra storey was added in 1923. Perry House is still believed to be the tallest timber structure in the southern hemisphere that's built on wooden foundations. In the intervening years, Perry House was used as a commercial building and even by the US Military during WWII. In 1996 after a substantial redevelopment, the heritage listed Perry House was opened as the Royal Albert Hotel. In keeping with the buildings rich history, the hotel features wide corridors, 12 foot ceilings with detailed ceiling roses and cornicing, with the added bonus of modern amenities. Royal Albert fine china is a feature of the hotel along with the largest collection of original oil paintings by renowned artist William Torrance. To summarise his style, it might be easiest to imagine the lessons of colour and light taught by the impressionists applied to the golden tones of Australian land and seascapes and particularly by the grandeur of maritime art. Royal Albert Perry Brothers Now a leading Brisbane boutique hotel, Royal Albert comprises 73 guest rooms including Deluxe Hotel Rooms (among the largest in Brisbane at 49 square metres), stylish One and Two Bedroom Suites and spacious Sub-Penthouse Apartments.
