When we think of boutique luxury city accommodation we think of; uninterrupted views over Sydney Harbour, luxuriously appointed suites and rooms, outstanding amenities and thriving dining options.
Park Hyatt Sydney is an outstanding boutique hotel in the heart of the city. Superbly located in the renowned Rocks district, and boasting uninterrupted views over Sydney Harbour, this has long been a favourite for discerning travellers.

Escape and Explore
Sydney’s vibrancy is alluring and intoxicating; however, a quick city escape can be the perfect remedy to relax, reset and ready yourself for your next adventure. Located just 90 minutes from Sydney’s CBD, we love the Blue Mountains and the wonderful opportunities these gorgeous ranges have to offer.
