Finally! Hyatt Regency in Sydney

[Gold Member]

Staying at HR Syd now and I can recommend the Club Lounge. It definitely has the QF SYD/MEL First class lounge feel to it owing to the Woods Baggot design influence. Disappointingly, the rooftop bar is not open and despite Ausbt reporting an opening end of January, I was told they're trying to have it open January 2nd. Apparently it's ready to go, just finalizing the coughtail menu etc.

Any 'real' pictures??

The Ausbt pictures are spot on and give you a good feel for the lounge. It feels smart and sophisticated, the service is decent but still finding its feet in some places, the views are nice, and the breakfast and evening food and drinks are all at a high standard.

If they open up the rooftop bar before I leave I'll definitely sneak in for some pics and post them.

I'm there for the next two nights from tomorrow. Will add what I can to Gold Member's excellent info.

Of course, the review prior to that was a little more positive.

Pretty much.

I'll let Princess Fiona recount her issues herself.

From my suite I can see they are now stocking the rooftop bar with all that liquid goodness, so I'd suggest an opening in the next few days.
