Empire Hotel, Queenstown, Heritage pub in Queenstown, Tasmania.
The Empire Hotel stands at the intersection of Orr and Driffield Streets, featuring a prominent two-story facade across from the Queenstown railway station.
James Wilson from Zeehan constructed the Empire Hotel in 1901 for developers Parer and Higgins, marking the beginning of its long service to the community.
The National Trust listed staircase inside the hotel demonstrates exceptional craftsmanship, made from Tasmanian Blackwood and carved in England before installation.

The hotel maintains its original dining room from 1901, serving meals seven days a week in a setting that preserves early twentieth-century architectural elements.
