Paradox Hotel Sydney

About the Paradox Hotel Sydney

With its vintage sandstone façade and traditional architecture, the Paradox Hotel is an historic hotel in the bustling heart of central Sydney. Formerly home to a newspaper empire and the Bank of New South Wales, the building has been sympathetically transformed into an elegant, stylish hotel.

The location of the Paradox Hotel is ideal; within walking distance of Circular Quay and a short stroll from a variety of restaurants and bars, high-end shopping, and of course, Sydney Opera House.

Your Stay

The hotel rooms are spacious and comfortable, combining boutique-style elegance with modern amenities like free Wi-Fi and flat-screen TV, and there is a fitness centre with indoor swimming pool, perfect for both energising and relaxing after a busy day in Sydney.

Dining Options

Breakfast is served each morning in the Lady Fairfax Room, which enjoys natural light streaming through its full-length windows; the perfect place to start your day.

Sydney is a foodie heaven, and this is reflected in the cuisine offered at Paradox Hotel’s onsite restaurant. Bentley Restaurant & Bar is one of the most respected restaurants in Sydney, winning multiple distinctions and popular with international visitors and locals alike. The Bentley is set on two levels: a lower bar area that offers an extensive selection of drinks along with a casual bar menu, and a stylish upper dining area with contemporary styling and a modern, Australian fine dining menu.

Guests wishing to relax over a morning coffee, pre-dinner cocktails or a late-night drink can find it all in The Fax Bar, named after the Fairfax family whose newspaper empire was once housed in this building. The Fax Bar is the perfect spot to unwind with a nightcap or take an elegant High Tea, reflecting the hotel’s grandeur and rich history.
