Why we recommend it
Kimpton Margot Sydney occupies one of the city's finest Art Deco buildings, on Pitt Street at the southern end of the central business district. The building has been reinvented as a boutique hotel, combining its 1930s character with modern design, and the interiors feature plush furnishings, art collections and heritage details throughout. It is part of the Kimpton brand of boutique hotels. The name and style recall the glamour of the inter-war years, and that mood runs from the public spaces up to the rooftop.
Rooms reflect the building's era and suit couples and solo travellers who want a little style without the price of a harbourfront hotel. Ask about room sizes when booking, as layouts vary within the heritage building.
The hotel's restaurant, Luke's Kitchen, is led by the Australian chef Luke Mangan, and there is also a wine-focused offering called Cellar By Luke. On the roof, Harper Rooftop Bar offers drinks with views over the city, and the hotel has a rooftop pool. A 24-hour fitness centre is available to guests, and the hotel holds Green Key certification for its environmental practices. On warm evenings the rooftop is the most popular part of the hotel, so plan your visit early if you want a good spot.
The hotel suits leisure travellers, couples and business visitors who want a central base with character. It is in a busy part of the city, so it is convenient rather than secluded. Members of the IHG loyalty programme receive additional perks. Families can stay too, but the hotel's character is aimed mainly at adults.
Location is a strength. Town Hall station is a few minutes' walk away, as are the Queen Victoria Building, Chinatown and the Capitol Theatre. Darling Harbour is around ten minutes on foot to the west, and Hyde Park and the Australian Museum are a short walk east. The George Street light rail runs one block away and connects with Circular Quay and Central.
The hotel welcomes guests with access needs; contact the team ahead of your stay to discuss requirements. Its rooftop is one of the main reasons to choose it, so plan at least one evening drink there during your visit.
