THE UNVEILING OF AN ICON
Marking twenty one years of hospitality in Sydney's most sought after waterfront location, Park Hyatt Sydney will soon reveal a spectacular rebuilt residence, pairing an unrivalled location with an unrivalled hotel.
In the most dramatic transformation of Sydney's harbour frontage, Park Hyatt Sydney has closed its rooms, spa, restaurant and bars for most of 2011 to undergo a complete rebuild.
When Park Hyatt Sydney re-opens its doors it will feature three rooftop Suites built on a new fourth level. This new level boasts, just shy of 360-degree, views spanning Sydney's iconic Sydney Harbour, the Opera House and Harbour Bridge and includes the city's largest suite at 350sqm, offering the most discerning guest, Sydney's absolute finest.
Importantly Park Hyatt Sydney honours its' heritage by ensuring original Sydney Sandstone and local woods are incorporated in the rebuild. The hotel has undertaken to commission a number of Australian artists including sculptors, painters and photographers for artworks designed especially for the new hotel. The twenty one years that Park Hyatt Sydney have called their Circular Quay pier home, is respected and celebrated throughout the hotels' redesign.
Australian hotel design firm, BARstudio are creating a new intimate and stylish interior, featuring an art gallery of interior pieces, including artefacts, books and artworks on the bedroom shelves and walls in all 155 bedrooms, and unique items throughout the hotel. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors open onto spacious private balconies for most bedrooms, which no other accommodation in Sydney can provide. Custom-designed lighting and new natural tone furnishings and fixtures enhance the indoor-outdoor lifestyle that Park Hyatt Sydney observe.
The multi-million dollar renovation includes a total reconfiguration of the low rise serpentine designed building, introducing a new and larger day spa, restaurant, bars, private dining rooms, enhanced and larger conference facilities, gymnasium and recreational spaces in addition to Sydney's largest guest rooms.
The new restaurant, The Dining Room is led by country Australia born chef, Andrew McKee, who brings with him a fundamental appreciation of the premium quality of Australian produce. Offering guests his authentically inspired cuisine, sourced from specialty local farmers and fishermen, his meals can be enjoyed while relishing the clean air and sunshine from one of the hotel balconies or open dining areas, making a uniquely Australian experience.
Park Hyatt Sydney's general manager, Andrew Mensforth stated, "Park Hyatt Sydney is close to the completion of the rebuild of this fine property. We continue to target a late 2011 opening. We are delighted with the progress so far, having undertaken a total rebuild with only the external wall remaining and we look forward to showcasing the new hotel to our ever discerning local and international guests".
General Manager, Mr Mensforth will advise the opening date via video announcement, once it is determined with the hotel's construction team. The hotel is now accepting bookings from 1 February 2012.
