The refined ambience of a fine dining restaurant was an upscale experience with attentive staff and impeccable service. I still recall the memorable, joyful-inspired, open-kitchen, delectable dining experience on the 30th floor. I felt especial, chic and indulged. It was an enchanting time!
General manager Kayte Staraj has invited us to indulge ourselves in life’s simple joys. “Bienvenue to Sofitel Brisbane Central, our five-star luxury hotel in Brisbane City. We invite you to live the French way, indulging in and celebrating the pleasures of life,” Kayte said.
