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.

One of the most famous sights in the world greets you as you awake in your Shangri-La room with a view. The iconic Sydney Opera House glows a pearlescent white against the blue of the sky and the sea, while the Sydney Harbour Bridge stands tall spanning the foreshore. The city is a palette of exuberant colors, all vying for your attention.

In the heart of The Rocks, meander along the charming cobblestone streets of the hotel’s historic precinct and discover Sydney’s vibrant history, along with a plethora of artisan stores, unique galleries and eclectic boutiques to surprise and delight. In need of pure indulgence, unwind in the serene spa scene of Chi, The Spa, and luxuriate in blissful treatments to nurture body, mind and soul. At sunset, ascend to Blu Bar on 36 and sip creative cocktails by talented bartenders, before taking your seat at Altitude and savoring an inspired taste journey by an award-winning culinary team. Did we mention the view? Be mesmerized by an unparalleled and spectacular panorama, as all of Sydney unfurls before you.
