Venue Highlights

Palazzo Versace unites exceptional attributes with impeccable attention to detail. Personal co-ordination is the key, with each conference, meeting or event individually directed by a designated member of the hotel's specialist team - a practical approach that ensures success. From informal brainstorming sessions to corporate conferences, meetings, presentations, cocktail receptions, gala dinners and grand balls, Palazzo Versace provides the most comprehensive choice of options. Located in a purpose-designed event sector of the hotel, accessed via a specious pre-function lobby, the hotel's function rooms vary not only in size but also in character and style. The Versace appreciation of style and beauty creates an experience more rewarding than the everyday conference or incentive.

Location

Renaissance beauty and grace come together in the most captivating location, internationally acclaimed for its glorious climate and cosmopolitan mode of life - known, appropriately, as the Gold Coast. The hotel is located just 80km south of the Brisbane International Airport, 35km north of the Gold Coast Airport and only 30km from the stunning Gold Coast hinterland. Overlooking the tranquil Gold Coast Broadwater, the hotel is only 100 metres from the famous surf beach.
