Our stay at Emporium Hotel South Bank was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the team made us feel genuinely welcomed and valued — the level of service was simply outstanding. This stay was incredibly special for us — our first night away from our children in over two years — and every single detail was handled with such care. We were generously upgraded to a stunning Premium River City King Suite with breathtaking river and city views, and to our surprise, we were welcomed with a bottle of champagne and a beautiful handwritten note. It was such a thoughtful and personal touch that truly meant the world to us. Nothing was ever too much trouble for the team. Every interaction felt warm, sincere and effortless. The hotel itself is absolutely stunning — elegant, luxurious, and impeccably presented — but it’s the people who make it extraordinary. Emporium isn’t just a beautiful hotel; it delivers a truly memorable experience. We left feeling relaxed, celebrated, and so well looked after. We cannot wait to return. Thank you for making our weekend so unforgettable.

We had such a fantastic time at the Emporium Reserve Bar, thanks to Justin. He truly made our visit fun, relaxed, and memorable. His energy, attention to detail, and genuine hospitality made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. He was great with recommendations and kept the atmosphere lively without ever being overbearing. It’s people like Justin who turn a good venue into a great experience. We’ll absolutely be back!
Johnny HC
Great hotel. Got everything right, service wise, and with great views and a great pool. And particularly impressed by the great value minibar: I’ve never been to a hotel where I have a full bottle of wine in the minibar that costs not much more than I can buy for retail. Dangerous. Would definitely stay again.
