The Old Clare Hotel

Stay in the heart of ‘Sydney’s Coolest Neighbourhood’ at this boutique gem in trendy Chippendale. The revamped hotel is set within two heritage-listed institutions, the former Carlton & United Breweries administration building and The County Clare Hotel, boasting just 69 bespoke rooms.

The hotel’s four distinct dining venues offer clever odes to its brewhouse past. Sip ice-cold beers downstairs at Clare Bar, fitted with mid-century chairs pulled from the hotelier’s own archives, and original broken tiles from its days as a raucous pub. Savour seafood fine dining next door at Longshore and retreat to the Rooftop pool bar for panoramic views of Sydney’s inner west.
