The Top Sydney Stays for Business Travellers
Four of the best stays for business travellers.
1. Ace Hotel, Surry Hills
Skip awkward networking events and stay in at this art-filled hotel, where the social schedule is always stacked. Located in a creative neighbourhood, the 264-room Ace outpost is Australia’s first and it’s a buzzy hive of action, from rooftop restaurant Kiln, where the Jatz cracker does a fine-dining flip, to the lobby-level LOAM, a spill-over site for music or wine tastings. You never know who you might bump into.
2. A By Adina, CBD
You’ll find the Hunter Street entrance of the refreshed A By Adina tucked behind an atmospheric staircase water feature. It’s the first of a host of considered choices throughout the 194-room high-rise. Other big wins include in-room kitchenettes fit for longer stays, one-touch blackout blinds and Dean & Nancy on 22, a Manhattanstyle bar brought to life by the Maybe Sammy team. Dining solo? A spot at the bar is the best seat in the house.
3. Little National Hotel, CBD
It’s the cleverly designed common areas that impress at this 230-room property. In the Library – a guest-only area that’s dedicated to co-working – there’s ample space for you to spread out, with charging ports and complimentary Nespresso coffee and T2 teas from 7am. Or take your laptop to the Lounge, a rooftop terrace with a firepit and city views. Later, switch to streaming in your suite, the bed framed by the generous picture window.
4. Capella, Circular Quay
Blurring the line between business and pleasure is a cinch at this luxury retreat. Go for a run on a harbourside route in the morning, catch up with the local contingent over coffee at Aperture, the light filled lobby café, then hit the Auriga Spa after back-toback Zooms (it’s open until 6pm). There’s also complimentary laundry pressing, soaking tubs and evening turndown services across all of the hotel’s 192 rooms.
