Waterloo Bay Hotel, Heritage hotel in Wynnum, Brisbane, Australia
The Waterloo Bay Hotel is a two-story brick building at 75 Berrima Street with verandahs, a hipped roof, and decorative leadlight doors. It houses a restaurant, sports bar, gaming lounge, accommodation rooms, and a bottle shop for guests.
George Gibbs built the original section in 1889, and architect George Henry Male Addison designed an extension in 1918. These two building phases shaped the structure, which has remained a landmark in the area since then.
The hotel serves as a gathering place in Wynnum with the Marlin Sports Bar, the Fig Restaurant, and spaces for community events. Locals and visitors regularly use these rooms to meet and celebrate occasions together.
The hotel offers accommodation, a gaming lounge open from 10 AM daily, and a bottle shop for purchases. Visitors should know that rooms are in a heritage building and the restaurant and bar may have their own operating hours.
The interior preserves original features such as pressed metal ceilings and a timber staircase with decorative patterns from 1889. These handcrafted details show the quality of construction from the Victorian era and remain visible today.
