Jubilee Hotel is a heritage-listed hotel at 464-468 St Pauls Terrace, Fortitude Valley, City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It was designed by Richard Gailey and built from 1887 to 1888. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992.
The Jubilee Hotel was constructed for William Gooley in 1887-88. It was designed by architect Richard Gailey who had designed a number of other hotels in Fortitude Valley. This was a boom year for hotel construction in the Valley with the Gailey-designed Empire Hotel and Prince Consort Hotel also opening in 1888.
The Jubilee differed from these other hotels in size and location. It was built to a smaller scale yet remained an imposing building because of its location in what was then a residential area.
The first licensee was Isabella Atwell who ran the hotel, later with her husband, until 1902. William Gooley's widow, Margaret, sold the hotel to Castlemaine Perkins in 1926. It was sold to the present owners in 1986. The ground floor was refurbished and a beer garden added at the rear.
The Jubilee Hotel, located on the corner of Constance Street and St Pauls Terrace, is a two-storeyed rendered brick building with a basement. L-shaped in plan the building has ornate street facades featuring arched window and door openings and an ornamented parapet. Small arched openings at the base of the street elevations ventilate the basement.
Windows and doors in the ground floor street elevations have been replaced with fixed glass with the exception of double timber doors opening off Constance Street and three double hung timber windows in the public bar.
The St Pauls Terrace elevation, articulated with classical detailing, is divided into three bays. The central bay is recessed to form loggias on the ground and first floors. The main entrance is framed by an arched open top pediment. This entrance, a timber door with fanlight and sidelights, opens onto a central hallway. Much of the ground floor interior has been altered. Plaster ceilings with ornate ceiling roses and cornices remain in the hallway and lounge bar. The hallway retains its rear doors and a richly detailed set of double doors leading to the public bar. Timber stairs at the back of the hallway lead to the first floor.
