BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA—Amora Brisbane, under the ownership of Thai-based Amora Group, emerges as a five-star leisure and business hotel after an AU$30 million (USD20 million) remodel.

The CBD hotel joins the group’s expanding portfolio of six owned and operated hotels and resorts under the Amora brand in Australia and Thailand.

Formerly the Novotel Brisbane, Amora purchased the property from CDL Hospitality Trusts in 2020.

Amora Brisbane’s transformation follows closely on the heels of Amora Beach Resort Phuket’s THB500 million (US$14 million) comprehensive refurbishment, completed in December 2023.

These projects aim to enhance the city experience for visitors and delegates alike, making it an attractive destination for leisure and business travelers.

About Amora Group

Amora Group is a family-owned business established by businessman and entrepreneur Dr. Tanapun Siriphatrawan in 1997 with the launch of Amora Hotel Riverwalk Melbourne.

Currently, the group owns and operates six properties in Australia and Thailand. The portfolio includes Amora Beach Resort Phuket, Amora Neoluxe Hotel Bangkok, Amora Hotel Chiang Mai, Amora Hotel Jamison Sydney, and Amora Hotel Brisbane, scheduled to open in 2024.

These properties comprise four- to five-star city hotels and five-star beach resorts offering 1,350 keys.

Dr. Siriphatrawan’s successful pioneering business in duty-free retail in Thailand’s then-Don Mueang Airport paved the way for hospitality with his first property purchase in Melbourne.

Following that, the group focused on expanding its brand of five-star hospitality, with Amora Beach Resort Phuket and Amora Hotel Jamison Sydney as flagship properties in their respective destinations.

Amora Group aims to solidify its presence as a five-star hospitality group in Australia and Thailand, with the vision of eventually becoming a leading independent hotel group in the Asia Pacific (excluding China).

Amora’s expansion plans in Australia will include properties in top cities’ central business districts to target corporate and business markets.

The group’s corporate hotels will eventually have a presence in key cities in the Asia Pacific.

In the leisure tourism market, the group will continue expanding in Thai cities, including Bangkok, with a longer-term goal of expanding the Amora brand to other popular tourism destinations in Southeast Asia.
