Revamped Ovolo Inchcolm channels 1930s charm
The reimagined Ovolo Inchcolm Brisbane has opened transforming the former New Inchcolm Hotel. The new look draws inspiration
from its rich architectural heritage, dating back to the 1920s, embodied by a concept it calls ‘The Cabinet of Curiosity’, curated
by stylist Anna Roberts. Guests will find an oddball mix of books, objects and artefacts paying homage to the building’s history,
while uniquely themed interiors tell their own stories as guests make their way through the hotel. Ovolo Inchcolm is also home to a
signature restaurant and bar, Salon de Co.
