Welcome to Hamilton

The riverside and prestigious suburb of Hamilton is in easy reach of the CBD, Gateway Bridge and the airport . It is surrounded by landmarks of Brisbane's past and present including the famous Breakfast Creek Hotel and the international cruise terminal Portside complete with cinema!

Hamilton has a mix of old and new architecture and one of the busiest connecting roads in Brisbane, Kingsford Smith Drive, named after our famous aviator and the man on the old paper $20 note, Sir Charles Edward Kingsford Smith who was born in this very suburb in 1897.

Carla says: I can walk to the beautiful Brisbane River, it's only a hop, skip and a jump to tasty delicacies along Racecourse Road, take a short drive to cinemas and shopping at Toombul and take my dogs swimming and work on my tan at Nudgee Beach. The airport, trains and buses, schools and of course, Sam's Seafood are all nearby. We've got it all in Hamilton.
