Location
Capella Sydney is approximately a 15-minute drive from Sydney Kingsford Smith International Airport (SYD).
About This Hotel
Capella Sydney captures the pulse of the city, where historic laneways meet sleek glass towers, and intimate corners invite moments of quiet amid urban rhythm.
For more than a century, the Department of Education building stood quietly in Sydney’s historic Sandstone Precinct, its honeyed facade blending into the city’s rhythm. Today, meticulously restored it reemerges as Capella Sydney—an address that feels both timeless and new. The heritage-listed icon marks Capella’s first Australian property, weaving together architecture, art and contemporary design. Just steps from Circular Quay, the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge.
Inside, the sense of history lingers in soaring ceilings, heritage windows and stone detailing, but the mood is resolutely contemporary. Interiors frame the Australian panorama with natural tones, curated artworks and thoughtful textures that shift with the light. The hotel’s 192 rooms and suites feel more like private residences than traditional accommodations, each generous in scale and designed with a quiet sophistication.
On the ground floor, Capella Sydney presents three distinct experiences. Brasserie 1930 serves modern brasserie classics with exceptional local produce and a world-class wine list. Aperture offers a tranquil, nature-infused space where Studio Drift’s kinetic sculpture Meadow hovers above a curated menu. For evenings, McRae Bar—named for the building’s original architect—reimagines Victorian-era cocktails through a contemporary Australian lens in an intimate space.
Perched on the sixth floor, Auriga Spa transforms this former art gallery into a sanctuary of wellness. The spa offers private rooms for individuals and couples, a 20-metre heated pool and vitality pool, and a fitness center equipped with Technogym machines and a dedicated yoga platform.
Capella Sydney balances history and modern life. Art, design, dining and wellness come together in a hotel that feels part of the city yet quietly distinct.
