About Ode Hotels Ode Hotels are stories to stay in. The kind of places that are part of something bigger. That's the beauty of old buildings: they beckon you to read between their lines. Stained glass has a colourful past. Sandstone traced is nature's braille. As time goes by, community and culture leave their indentations, and guests leave wanting to come back. Preservers of place, and forever open to possibility, Ode Hotels are spaces that hold space.
About The Inchcolm Over a century young, this Neo-Georgian belle shines with original charm and historical character, as if to say, take a leaf out of my book: stay true to yourself, an original is worth more than a copy. It's no wonder, really, that this heritage-listed hotel remains a much-loved Brisbane landmark. Home to 50 generous guest rooms, each dressed in their traditional best, complete with modern amenities and city views; places to politely excuse yourself to for rest and restoration.
