Regatta Hotel, Brisbane : ウィキペディア英語版 | Regatta Hotel
The Regatta Hotel is a heritage-listed hotel located on the corner of Coronation Drive and Sylvan Road in Brisbane, Australia. It is located in the suburb of Toowong and faces the Brisbane River. The three-storey hotel contained accommodation on the upper two floors and a public bar and lounge area on the ground floor. It was named after the rowing regattas which were once held along the nearby river.〔(The Regatta Hotel ). australianbeers.com. Retrieved on 2 October 2012.〕 A famous protest took place in the public bar in 1965, when two women, Merle Thornton (mother of Australian actress Sigrid Thornton) and Rosalie Bognor, chained themselves to the bar in protest of Queensland's restriction of public bars to men only.〔http://www.epa.qld.gov.au/register/p00044ap.pdf〕 The protest was not successful despite other similar protests as it was years before the laws changed. ==Bars== The Heritage Bar on the ground floor features leather lounges and a large fireplace. The bars are frequented by staff and students of the University of Queensland.〔
