Overview

Oozing sophistication, class, and an unabashedly fun-loving attitude, The Observatory Hotel suits Sydney to a tee.

Sydney may not be a very old city, but it has quickly become one of the world's most intriguing. Whether in town to do business, have some fun or - better yet - a bit of both, the Observatory Hotel is where you'll want to be.

Situated near Sydney's historic Rocks and central business district, the Observatory Hotel is also near the inner harbor area and Sydney Harbor Bridge. There is something inspiring about Sydney's laid-back sense of style and its unpretentious inhabitants. Entering the Observatory Hotel is like walking into a gorgeous, sophisticated home; welcoming but not stuffy, cozy but not clingy, and full of perfectly appointed rooms. You can even bring your favorite pet along ... just make sure you're not the one ordering off the Scooby Doo room service menu!

Stay in and make the most of the hotel's five-star hotel restaurant, "Galileo," its world class Day Spa, or gorgeous star lit indoor pool and gym, or head out and explore Sydney. Either way, you can't go wrong.
