Presidential suite receives royal name revamp

Brisbane’s appropriately named Pullman Brisbane King George Square has renamed its best room in the house, formerly known as the Presidential Suite, to the Prince George Suite, in honour of the royal birth.

Pullman’s general manager Grant Parnell said, “Our top-suite’s presidential title seemed a little disconnected to the hotel’s name which already has a monarchical connection to king George V. The arrival of prince George as the newest member of the royal family this week has provided us with the perfect excuse to bestow it with a fresh new title on our favourite suite to commemorate this special occasion in royal style.”

The name George – chosen for the duke and duchess of Cambridge’s baby son – is synonymous with British kings including the new prince’s great, great grandfather, King George VI and King George V.

“Following the death of King George V in 1936, Brisbane’s King George Square was widened to include the area which had been Albert St and renamed in honour of the king. So we are just keeping with the renaming tradition,” added Mr Parnell.
