My husband and I loved every second of our stay at the Emporium! The staff were so friendly and helpful, our room had everything we needed including an incredible view, and the pool and spa/sauna were great. We were very kindly given a complimentary late check-out and bottle of champagne for our 10 year anniversary. We also really enjoyed our massage at the Healing Stone. Highly recommend this hotel.

On arrival 2 hours prior to check in we queried about dropping our bags off early and utilise the hotel facilities, in which the reception staff kindly accepted. Upon check-in to our room, our bags were already in our room and we were amazed by the layout of the room. We also made use of the valet & concierge services. The staff there were amazing with their customer service and very professional. We tried the Italian restaurant and were amazed with their customer service, everything was Italian from the waitress, chef and the music. We toured the infinity pool area which had stunning views of the city, although it can be hard to find a daybed during peak times. They had provided towels, complimentary bottled water and had a waiter present to take orders from the bar next to the pool. On check-out we were assisted by a porter to take our bags to the car from our room. When we checked, the bags were stacked perfectly in the boot and check-out process was smooth. Overall recommend staying here. Pros - Customer Service - Room Views - Services Available - Close to all things city/southbank - Valet Service Cons - Expensive restaurant for small portion of food
