Hyatt Regency Sydney occupies a prime waterfront position at 161 Sussex Street in the Sydney CBD, with direct access to Darling Harbour. The 24-storey property, redeveloped in 2016, functions as one of Sydney’s largest premium hotels and includes 4,000 m² of meeting space, two grand ballrooms, and 21 meeting rooms. Its central location places guests within walking distance of the SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium, International Convention Centre Sydney, Hyde Park, and numerous restaurants and shops across the pedestrian bridge. Guestrooms range from standard 30 m² units to harbour-view rooms and suites with balconies or panoramic Darling Harbour outlooks. The hotel provides five bars and restaurants, notably Sailmaker for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, plus the open-air Zephyr Sky Bar on the rooftop. A full-service spa offers massage treatments, while a 24-hour fitness centre is available; the property does not have a pool. Complimentary Wi-Fi, concierge services, and laundry are standard. The hotel stands out for World of Hyatt members due to its club lounge, which supplies breakfast and evening hors d’oeuvres. Globalist elites may receive room upgrades to harbour-view accommodations and, on points stays, complimentary parking. Connecting rooms and configurations that accommodate families are available upon request.
