Do Sydney in style with a stay at the five-star Primus Hotel, a former government building that has been given a glamorous art-deco makeover. Built in 1939, it took two years to refurbish and rebuild the property, which reopened its doors in 2015. Original features – such as the vault in the middle of the lobby – have been lovingly preserved and fused with luxe touches including a glamorous New York-styled rooftop bar and pool and a high-end eatery and Lobby Bar. The location is the jewel in this crown, with some of Sydney’s best sites, shops and restaurants just a short walk from the hotel.
What You’ll Love…
The Hotel – Art-deco luxe with a rooftop bar and pool
Step into this grand foyer and you can almost see Don Draper sipping an absinth or Marilyn Monroe attending a high tea at the 1920’s-vibed Lobby Bar—where the building’s original red marble Scagliola pillars can be admired. Make your way to the rooftop and you’ll find a 20-metre heated pool and the stylish Level Seven bar - almost straight out of a high-end Manhattan hotel. Here, you’ll enjoy a glass of house wine or beer each and maybe order some snacks from a delicious grazing menu that features Sydney Rock oysters, Vietnamese rice paper rolls, and cheese and charcuterie boards. Primus also boasts a Lobby Bar, perfect for intimate pre-dinner drinks, and the contemporary Wilmot restaurant—where you’ll enjoy one delicious one-course, set menu dinner during your stay.
The Room – Elegant design with plush furnishings and marble touches
Stay in a Deluxe King Room, tastefully decorated with plush art-deco touches and marble bathrooms featuring a walk-in shower and Apelles amenities. You’ll also find a 42-inch LED TV, iPod dock and chaise lounge, lending an added touch of luxe to those moments of relaxation.

Featuring 40sqm of space, you’ll benefit from an in-house Nespresso machine and selection of teas, an ample work desk, a generous bathroom with large soaking tub and walk-in shower, a nightly turndown service and luxurious bathrobes and slippers. Plus, toast to your escape with a welcome bottle of wine on arrival.
Suite Upgrade: The ultra spacious 74sqm Deluxe Suite (located on levels 1 - 4) is a nod to the building’s Art Deco heritage. Here, you’ll find tranquillity with a king bed, separate sitting area with plush sofa, 55-inch TV and a powder room with large soaking bath and double vanity. This upgrade will have you enjoying a glamorous afternoon high tea at the hotel’s Lobby Bar.

The Food – Complimentary daily breakfast and a dinner at Wilmot restaurant

In the evenings, the luxe comfort of The Wilmot beckons, spearheaded by executive chef Daniel Menzies.

See & Do – The perfect location for exploring Sydney
Located on the very central Pitt Street, you’ll be just moments from some of the city’s finest restaurants, best shopping and most popular sites. Hyde Park, Pitt Street Mall and Westfield shopping centre are just a two-minute stroll away, while a 15-minute walk will take you to The Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge.
Drink: Baxter Inn - voted #12 in the 2016 World’s 50 Best Bars competition, this 1920s-era joint provides over 360 whiskies (the most expensive being $100 a nip) to a soundtrack of jazz classics. Hidden, sign-less in a laneway off Clarence Street, it’s not the most obvious find, but well worth the effort. Order the “whiskey and apple”—a highball of Tennessee whiskey and squeezed-to-order apple juice.
Walk: The Bondi Beach to Coogee Beach walk is a pastime engaged in by locals, and a great way to spot dolphins and whales passing through the Tasman Sea. Adorned by multiple beaches and bays, the coastal route is home to a few low-key (and almost secret) spots. One such is McKenzies Beach, just off the south point of McKenzies Point, and largely unknown to tourists, and even some Sydney-siders. This mystery beach, between Bondi and Tamarama, is said to appear once every seven years, when sand builds up on the rocks and the tide falls. No one knows exactly when it will appear, but when it does, it is visited by every Bondi dweller and their dog.
