Heritage apartment hotel in Brisbane CBD with spacious self-contained apartments
Accommodation
Macarthur Chambers offers individually decorated one- and two-bedroom apartments in a heritage-listed sandstone building. Each apartment is larger than average and includes a fully equipped kitchen with granite work surfaces and stainless steel appliances. Marble bathrooms with hairdryer are standard, and some apartments have a spa bath.
Amenities
The recreation deck on the ninth floor provides access to an outdoor pool, fitness centre, sauna, and BBQ area for guest use. Complimentary access to the gym and sauna is included in the stay. Secure covered car parking is available for AUD 15 per day.
Location
The hotel sits at the end of Queen Street Mall, directly across from the shopping precinct and a short walk to Brisbane Central Station. Within 400 metres of the property, guests find the Brisbane Convention Centre and the Gallery of Modern Art (GOMA). Public transport stops at the door, and the Queen Street Mall pedestrian crossing leads into the city's retail core.
History & Business
The building holds historical significance as the former headquarters of General Douglas MacArthur during World War II. Business travellers can book apartments with full laundry facilities and separate living areas for meetings or extended work stays. The reception desk is staffed from 07:30 AM on weekdays to assist with check-in and parking access.
Additional Services
On-site private parking is available for AUD 15 per day in a secure garage with lift access to the lobby. Guests receive a key card for parking entry, and the garage has a 2-metre height clearance. A supermarket (Woolworths) is located next door for stocking the apartment's kitchen.
Highlights
Accommodation: Individually decorated one- and two-bedroom apartments in heritage building
Amenities: Outdoor pool, fitness centre, sauna, BBQ area on ninth-floor recreation deck
Location: Across from Queen Street Mall, 400 m from Brisbane Central Station
Historical: Former WWII headquarters of General Douglas MacArthur
Parking: Secure covered parking for AUD 15 per day
“The location within a heritage building connects guests to General MacArthur's legacy, while also placing them steps from Brisbane's CBD. I noted that the apartments, though individually styled, generally offer more square footage than standard rooms. With recreation on the ninth floor and proximity to upscale shopping, the property targets travelers who want space and centrality.”
