Balancing storied architectural features with a contemporary design aesthetic, Capella Sydney celebrates the Australian panorama through its interiors, location and experiences.
The unparalleled spaces within Capella Sydney showcase curated artwork, sophisticated furnishings and intriguing objet d’art. 192 guestrooms and suites spanning eight levels, are anchored by three ground-level food and beverage offerings, including signature restaurant, Brasserie 1930 and McRae Bar.
The ground level also features six meeting and event spaces catering for groups of 10 to 80 guests, while wellness-seeking guests will make their way to Level Six to discover the world-class health and spa facilities.
