“The art-inspired design, drawing from Parisian influences, could be a draw, along with its location in the heart of Sydney's vibrant nightlife. It is home to an award-winning bar and underground cocktail scene and modern Australian dining, which are worth the visit. Still, some aspects require refurbishment to fully meet expectations.”
