PRICE:
Frommer's Exceptional

Sydney's coolest hotel offers sleek modernist rooms in two styles: one with beautifully restored warehouse ceilings, Japan Black floorboards, and flashes of strong color, and the other more tranquil in color and softer in feel. All rooms come with generous-size marble or bluestone bathrooms. If you were a superstar with a taste for cutting-edge fashion, this is where you'd choose to stay. In the same building, you'll find one of Sydney's best restaurants, est., and the small but gorgeous Sushi E. Also here are a couple of trendy bars, and the popular Tank nightclub. The building is a historic Sydney landmark, but the feel is "now" rather than then.
