Wickham Hotel, Heritage-listed hotel in Fortitude Valley, Australia

The Wickham Hotel stands as a three-story masonry structure at 308 Wickham Street, featuring a rendered brick facade and timber-framed verandah.

Richard Gailey designed this hotel in 1885, which operated initially as the Oriental before Denis O'Connor acquired it in 1895 and maintained ownership until 1937.

Since 1996, the Wickham Hotel established itself as a center for the LGBTQIA+ community, hosting Brisbane's largest LGBTQIA+ festival called Big Gay Day.

The hotel operates daily from 10:00 AM, closing at midnight on Mondays and Tuesdays, 2:00 AM on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays, and 3:00 AM on Fridays and Saturdays.

The building retains its original features including embellished plaster ceilings, cornices, and timber doors, while incorporating modern amenities through recent renovations.
