Treasury Hotel, Heritage-listed hotel in Brisbane, Australia.
The Treasury Hotel is a three-story heritage-listed building with Victorian character at 175 George Street. The facade displays classical decorative details, ornamental string courses, and moulded window sills that define its exterior style.
Built between 1887 and 1888 by designer Abraham James, the building replaced the earlier Dunmore Arms Hotel. It then served as lodging for families and business travelers and has shaped the city streetscape since.
The hotel stands among several architectural landmarks near Queens Park and shows how Queensland's hospitality industry developed during the late 1800s. Visitors can still see the classical details and courtyard design that reflect this period.
The hotel sits in Brisbane's Central Business District with convenient access to bus lines and train stations. From here, visitors can easily reach the riverside walks along the Brisbane River and other downtown attractions.
The building features an enclosed passageway that once allowed horse-drawn carriages to access the rear courtyard during the Victorian era. This hidden feature shows how the courtyard was designed as a practical space for guests.
