About the company

George Hartnett Metropolitan Funerals was created in 2017 after the merger of two established funeral homes, George Hartnett Funerals and Metropolitan Funerals, which together bring more than 145 years of experience across 12 locations in Brisbane, Redland, Logan and Moreton Bay. The business has served families across Queensland since the 1940s.

The Holland Park chapel seats 90 guests, with additional standing room for 40, and the location has 32 on-site parking spots. The company provides multicultural funeral services and maintains connections with religious organisations in the community.

What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

A funeral for a parent, a baby or another loved one is the situation reviewers describe most often when praising this Holland Park funeral director, and their comments focus largely on the people who guided them. Gavin recurs across accounts for his calm, respectful manner, for listening carefully to family requests and for accommodating them, and for the precision with which arrangements were carried out. Caleb attracts comparable remarks, described as gentle and soothing while honouring the wishes of the deceased and the family, and Anita Lin is credited with caring for Asian and Mandarin-speaking families in a responsive and supportive way.

Reviewers repeatedly return to the professionalism, warmth and compassion of the wider team, who assisted at every stage and made room for particular requests. Prompt and efficient communication, especially around the Order of Service, features in several accounts, as does the chapel, valued as a fitting setting for a farewell. The service was handled faultlessly from start to finish, lightening a stressful experience.
