Holland Park is a suburb of Brisbane, the capital city of Queensland, Australia, that is situated approximately 8 km south of the Brisbane central business district. Holland Park is an older suburb made of largely post-World War II wooden homes. In fact over 89% of dwellings are houses.

Logan Road, one of Brisbane's first major roads, bisects this slightly hilly suburb. Trams operated by the Brisbane City Council operated along Logan Road until 13 April 1969.

There are a number of schools and parks in the suburb and a retail zone with shops and a public bar.

Surrounding suburbs include Greenslopes, Coorparoo, Carina Heights, Mount Gravatt East and Holland Park West.
