Steeped in history the iconic Imperial Hotel had an unconventional & colourful start.

Originally known as Nobel's Circus in 1852 the building housed equestrian shows, promenade concerts & lively dances. It wasn't until 1863 that the

building became Richardson's Imperial Hotel.

Today The Imperial Hotel has maintained its elegance and tradition of early years whilst also becoming one of the city's most

contemporary & dynamic event spaces on offer.
