The place
At 161 Sussex Street on the edge of Darling Harbour and the CBD, the hotel is within walking distance of ICC Sydney and Cockle Bay Wharf, with harbour and city skyline views from its upper floors and new tower.
The concept
Hyatt Regency Sydney is the November 2016 rebrand of Four Points by Sheraton Sydney, Darling Harbour, completed alongside an AU$250 million redevelopment that added a 24-storey tower and 222 rooms, lifting the total to 892 — making it Australia's largest full-service upscale hotel. The rebrand marked the Hyatt Regency flag's return to Sydney and shifted the address from a mid-market Starwood brand to Hyatt's upscale conference-hotel tier.
Dining & wellness
Sailmaker, a 272-seat all-day restaurant, anchors the dining offer. Zephyr, on the roof, was Sydney's only hotel rooftop bar at launch, and the hotel also runs a Regency Club lounge.
