The original property opened in 1966. A member of Historic Hotels Worldwide since 2023.
Located only a leisurely stroll away from iconic sights like the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Sydney Opera House, Sofitel Sydney Wentworth sits amid the central business district at the heart of the best that the city has to offer. The hotel’s tradition of hospitality runs deep, with a boarding house, known as Wentworth House, first operated on the site starting in 1854. Later, a partnership with Qantas Airways fittingly took the Wentworth Hotel to even loftier heights, constructing a new, larger building that would open in 1966 as Sydney’s first international, five-star hotel. Today, Sofitel Sydney Wentworth stands as one of the largest single-brick structures in the Southern Hemisphere.
An architectural icon in its own right, the heritage-listed hotel stays true to its storied history while offering a fresh and modern perspective. The building’s most notable feature is a curvilinear exterior wall, which envelops a horseshoe-shaped courtyard, which many of the 436 guestrooms and suites at Sofitel Sydney Wentworth overlook. Inside, guests enjoy opulent finishes like elegant marble and sophisticated fabrics and fine dining at the hotel’s onsite culinary venues. And as a “Hotel of the Arts,” playing host to in-house art exhibitions and a creative, couture-inspired high tea, it is also the perfect place for a pre-theatre dinner or cocktails after an art gallery visit.
