Solotel

Solotel Solotel is a family of venues, 27 strong and growing in Sydney and Brisbane. Come play with us. Our family has been in pubs since 1910.
(1)

In 1930, we bought the pub in Darlinghurst and we continue to evolve with our communities. Founded in 1986, Solotel has been an integral backdrop for great food, beverage, entertainment, music, and positive energy. We provide our customers the greatest diversity of experience, with 26 venues strong and growing in Sydney and Brisbane. Because we believe in the importance of hospitality in society.

In every great cultural movement of the last 100 years, there’s always been a watering hole for people to meet, share, and give life to new ideas. We’re facilitators of cultural and social change. Fostering deeper connections between people from all walks of life. Hospitality is in our blood. It is our family history and we see Solotel as a family of venues.

In case you missed it, we had our grand opening night of Goros Brisbane back in February 😉 and it was one for the history books… Fit with sake bombs, karaoke that brought the house down, G-Wagons, ping-pong tournaments, and more – we also drew the winner of the Win A Trip To Japan competition! A huge congrats to Ashleigh and Saeb (her very lucky plus-one); Japan awaits 🇯🇵✨ Goros was brought together through big conversations and shared ideas over Okinawan sake, tempura-fried saltbush, and many, many laughs. We’re so proud of everything this venue means for Brisbane and the Solotel family – stop by the next time you’re in Foritude Valley and see it for yourself.
