Tallest Tower at Queens Wharf Under Minor Hotels Management Minor Hotels has secured the management letting rights to the tallest tower in The Star Entertainment Group"s $3.6 billion Queens Wharf development in Brisbane"s CBD. Minor Hotels will assume the rights to the 64-storey Queens Wharf Residences tower, labelled Queensland"s fastest-selling development, from early 2025, which the hotels group says will herald “a new era for Brisbane as a major tourism, leisure and entertainment destination”. Craig Hooley, COO for Minor Hotels Australasia “We are excited to add such a landmark Brisbane development to our portfolio, offering a product unlike anything the city has seen before concerning size and scale and proximity to Brisbane CBD"s most exciting dining and entertainment precinct,” says Craig Hooley, the chief operating officer for Minor Hotels Australasia. “Given our extensive experience managing over 550 properties globally, including 11 existing properties in Brisbane CBD, we are well-equipped to manage this pioneering development, further establishing Brisbane"s position on the world stage as a global destination for entertainment, leisure and tourism.” Minor Hotels operates 10 Oaks-branded hotels in Brisbane, including The Milton Brisbane. The company's national portfolio is primarily focused on the Oaks brand.

Queens Wharf Residences, one of two residential towers in the Queens Wharf precinct, is nearing completion and is set to welcome its first residents early next year. The project sold out four years ago and features a variety of apartment layouts, including one-, two-, and three-bedroom options. Within just four weeks of its release, the tower achieved approximately $820 million in sales from 740 apartments. Lauren Sheldon, Australian head of Sales and Marketing, Far East Consortium “Highly sought-after, Queen"s Wharf Residences has become Queensland"s fastest-selling development, offering more than just a place to stay, but an unprecedented benchmark in urban tourism for Brisbane,” says Lauren Sheldon, Australian head of Sales and Marketing, Far East Consortium. “The scale of this project demanded a management partner with unmatched expertise to offer the premium management guests of Queen"s Wharf Residences will expect, and Minor Hotels" extensive experience in property management across Australasia and beyond instils us with confidence that they are the ideal partner to deliver on this promise.” Residents and guests of the property will enjoy access to a range of resort-style amenities. These include a pool, spa, steam room, theatre, leisure lounge, and gym. Additionally, they will have direct access to the dining and hotel options available in the Queens Wharf precinct, such as Sokyo, Fat Noodle, and Cherry.
