Capella Sydney
New Luxury
What we think
Skylark only includes hotels that meet our stamp of approval. Our editorial review for this one isn’t ready yet — but we’re working on it! Below is the hotel’s own description.
For generations, the Department of Education building stood quietly, its golden sandstone facade forming an unassuming backdrop to the rhythm of the city. Reawakening as Capella Sydney, the heritage-listed icon, welcomes guests inside for the very first time, it sets a global benchmark for luxury accommodation, cuisine, and cultural immersion.
Situated moments from Circular Quay in an enviable position central to commercial arts and cultural hubs in the heart of the city's newest hospitality precinct, Capella Sydney celebrates the Australian panorama through its interiors, location, and experiences. Balancing storied architectural features with a contemporary design aesthetic, the unparalleled spaces within Capella Sydney showcase curated artwork and sophisticated furnishings. 192 guest rooms and suites spanning eight levels are anchored by three ground-level food and beverage offerings: Aperture Brasserie 1930, and McRae Bar. The ground level also features an array of meeting and event spaces catering for 10 to 80 people, while wellness-seeking guests will make their way to level six to discover the world-class health and spa facilities.
