Ovolo Sydney, Woolloomooloo

The Hotel – A heritage-listed icon meets modern five-star luxury

The hotel’s Wi-Fi name, Ovolololovesyou, sums up everything you need to know about Ovolo Woolloomooloo — it’s all about the little touches.

The industrial interiors perfectly balance 100 years of history with modern luxury — dramatic, soaring ceilings, exposed beams and old-school video games for that quirky playful touch. An indoor pool and outdoor cabanas beckon, while just outside the ostentatious front doors you’ll find waterfront terrace restaurants along the wharf, including Italian Otto, seafood-specialist Manta and modern Asian China Doll. Listen to the sounds of Radio Ovolo’s curated playlist and do some people-watching – you never know who you might spot at Ovolo Woolloomooloo.

From destination dining at plant-based restaurant Alibi Bar & Kitchen to the nightly social hour in the theatrical Alibi Bar, the complimentary arty tote bag awaiting your arrival in-room and the complimentary self-service laundry facility — known as the ‘drop your pants room’ — this boutique hotel will treat you to a five-star stay like no other.

From the moment you step foot in your ultra-stylish room, you’ll be immersed in the kind of unique luxury that only Ovolo Woolloomooloo can deliver. This individually designed room features a king bed, repurposed artwork and little luxuries like an Apple TV and Foxtel, an iPad and an Alexa smart speaker.
