Updated: 28/11/2022

There are few places in Sydney that offer top notch accommodation, right in the middle of town with views that only the Kardashians can afford. And that’s the Sheraton Grand Hyde Park Sydney. it’s just had a massive renovation so fresh, the carpet still has bounce, each room has a bath, almost every room has a view, and what they offer in-between all that is nothing short of spectacular. From the moment you enter the hotel, it’s all smiles, all professionalism, cherry dispositions and even cheerier rooms that await with all the mod cons to make even the shortest of trip – like a night – absolutely memorable. Ascend past level 11, though, and you’re treated to all kinds of luxuries. If you’re lucky enough to score a terrace suite with private balcony that looks over Sydney’s Hyde Park with the opening of Sydney Harbour in the very visible distance, then consider yourself lucky: you’re in celebrity land. This is the kind of room the lush opt for when they’re passing through or paying a visit; and it’s easy to see why. With a bed so wide you can’t reach the other side, blinds as good as black-outs, a walk-in robe and a bathroom big enough to have a party in, the Sheraton’s rooms don’t leave much to be desired. And as is standard fora hotel of the Sheraton’s magnitude, their food offering isn’t to be scoffed at, either. If it’s not the annual Christmas in July feast they put on at the aptly named… Read More

The Langham Sydney’s Observatory Bar opens its doors this spring, providing visitors with a stunning new location to seek refuge from the bustle of the city. Nestled in the heart of Millers Point, Observatory Bar provides guests with an intimate space to enjoy a meticulously curated cocktail or fine wine. Inspired by industrial technology and modern gastronomy, Observatory Bar’s manager David Green brings an element of the fantastical to the luxurious venue with his evocative cocktail menu set to tantalise your senses. Incorporating interactive elements and utilising quintessential Australian ingredients, Green fulfils his desire to “create an exclusive menu and experience that offers our guests the chance to try hard-to-find spirits, rare whiskies and gins, without having to leave Sydney.” Observatory Bar’s décor ties into its elegant surroundings; beautifully plush teal and cream lounges line the bar, interspersed with armchairs and ottomans in the same colour palate. Wooden and golden bar trolleys are scattered around the space, merging seamlessly with the back-lit bookshelves to make us feel like we’re at – an albeit more elegant – home.

The Little Albion Guest House in Surry Hills makes you want a staycation every weekend

James Banham Albion Guesthouse Hotel

by

Updated: 28/11/2022

Tucked clandestinely down the side street that is Little Albion in Surry Hills, the Little Albion Guesthouse has pitched itself a spot and is kicking total goals. You know you’re in for something great when the front gate swings open and you’re greeted by a concierge in full regalia, complete with cravat, a tower of light, decorated with suspended tea lights and a front terrace that is as much Alice in Wonderland as it is ‘trendy inner-city hotel’. The hotel does the traditional hospitality type of thing, but in its own, inimitable way. They offer breakfast, but without a dining room, their open bar runs with an honesty policy, whereby you take what you want and deal with it later, their rooms are large, old-cum-new and offer a sense of attainable luxury that you’re hard done-by to find in many other boutique hotels around the city. They say that the concept came about after researching hotels through the ages. From the very first kind, the ryokan (a traditional Japanese inn dating back to the eighth century AD) to the modern big box branded hotels of the 80’s, followed by the explosion of boutique offerings and finally through to the innovation of the game-changing Airbnb platform. From here, they saw a clear evolution and landed squarely on what both corporate and leisure guests genuinely want from their ‘home away from home’ – the luxury and comfort of a hotel teamed with the ease and familiarity of home. And it works. The hotel is staked inside an old… Read More
