Why you'll love Karstens Brisbane

  • Offering a range of flexible seating layouts, audio/visual configurations and gourmet catering options.
  • Amazing views from level 24.

Centrally located in Brisbane’s ‘Golden Triangle’, Karstens Brisbane provides an executive venue space with picturesque views of Brisbane and its surroundings. Located on Level 24 of 215 Adelaide Street, the venue’s building is connected to Brisbane’s central train station by a pedestrian bridge, and Brisbane’s main bus terminal is located directly in front of the building.

 

Flexibility: We tailor your event to your requirements, offering a range of flexible seating layouts, audio/visual configurations and gourmet catering options. We also offer the option to downsize your booking to a smaller or larger room if the number of attendees changes closer to your event date*.

Comfort & Space: All Karstens venues provide rooms with natural daylight, comfortable breakout areas, free Wi-Fi, Nespresso coffee and a selection of premium teas. This provides the perfect environment to relax, refresh and network.

Gourmet in-house catering: We strongly believe in quality over quantity, especially when it comes to food. That’s why we offer a full gourmet in-house catering experience with a variety of healthy menu options. Common dietary requirements are provided at no extra cost.

Central CBD Locations with on-site car parking: All of our venues are conveniently located right in the heart of the CBD, close to hotels, cafes, restaurants, shopping and public transport. Each of our venues also offers ample on-site parking (or parking close by) to ensure that your attendees always have an easy arrival and departure.

Fully renovated, modern and high tech: Our venues provide a truly modern executive space fully equipped with the latest technology and infrastructure. This includes comfortable eight-hour chairs, free Wi-Fi, fast fibre optic internet connection and video/telephone conferencing facilities in all rooms (on request).

Dedicated point of contact: We offer a dedicated Conference Coordinator for all your bookings in Australia and New Zealand. Our coordinator ensures that each of your events is managed seamlessly from start to finish. Rebooking or rolling out a road show is easy, as we can rebook your previous event or book the same event across all of our venues.

Easy booking process: Having to fill out, sign and scan lengthy Terms and Conditions forms is a thing of the past. Just click the link with your quote and fill out the confirmation form and your event is confirmed.

No deposit needed: Unlike other venues, we don’t require a deposit for bookings under $5,000.00. This saves you from having to make two payments and obtain the required approvals — a convenient way to save you time and no need to organise payments before the event. Karstens invoices you after the event.

Venue needs to give more thought to people attending for multiple days as the table and chairs are uncomfortable to work on for long periods. Also the service of food and drink needs to improve. I was snapped at by a staff member for taking a drink from the trolley as apparently it wasn't my groups turn even though it was next to the table. Food was often cold even though it had only just been put out. The toilet doors also have a gap that can be seen through which was a little uncomfortable
