Frommer's Review
This exclusive hotel, a 10-minute walk uphill from The Rocks and 15 minutes from Circular Quay, is a turn-of-the-20th-century beauty competing for top-hotel-in-Sydney honors. It's fitted with antiques, objets d'art, and the finest carpets, wallpapers, and draperies. Plus, it's renowned for its personalized service. Rooms are plush and quiet, with huge bathrooms. Some rooms have city views; others look out over the harbor. The pool here is one of the best in Sydney: Note the Southern Hemisphere constellations on the roof. The day spa is one of the most exclusive in the city, as is the hotel's restaurant, Galileo, where superb Japanese/French food is served in luxurious surroundings with a clubby feel.
Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; chemical-free heated indoor pool; floodlit tennis court; health club w/flotation tank; sauna; concierge; business center; 24-hr. room service; laundry service; dry cleaning
