Park Hyatt Sydney
A multimillion-dollar total rebuild, which included the addition of an entire top floor, has seen the iconic Park Hyatt Sydney reemerge as Sydney's best address. The low-slung hotel has ramped up its celebrity clientele reputation a notch or three with the addition of three new suites on the new level, including the largest in Sydney (aptly named the Sydney Suite) measuring at 3,853 square feet. Most of the hotel's 155 rooms have an Opera House view (they all have harbor views), enjoyed from one or two private balconies or large terraces. The former rooftop pool area has been incorporated into THE SPA, a luxurious new retreat bedecked with poolside cabanas and all manner of health inducing aromatherapy steam rooms that open out onto an enormous terrace. Guest rooms and public areas are a study in sleek elegance decorated in chocolate, cream, and beige hues, plus sculptures, artwork, and photographs by Australian artists. Three dining venues—the Dining Room, the intimate Living Room (where daily afternoon tea is served), and The Bar—complete the gorgeous picture.
