New Look for Sydney Sofitel

In time for its 53rd year, one of Sydney’s grand old dames, the Sofitel Sydney Wentworth, is poised to emerge from its most stylish yet understated makeover.

The six-month revitalisation project commenced in October 2018 and has just been completed, with all 436 guestrooms and suites receiving the most attention with a stylish makeover. With a chic soft grey palette and muted tones throughout, the sophisticated guestrooms feature new upholstered bedheads, artworks, carpets and high backed fabric armchairs with matching ottomans. Mood lighting and soft flowing floor to ceiling curtains create an ambience, working harmoniously to form the perfect zone for sleep, relaxation or working away from the office.

A major technology overhaul brings one of Sydney’s most iconic hotels up to speed with the launch of IPTV including Chromecast on all guestroom TV’s together with an upgrade to the fastest WiFi to rival any of Sydney’s newest CBD hotels.

Upon arrival, return guests will also notice that the lobby area has received a stylish refresh with new carpets throughout and new furniture in addition to new fittings and furniture in the library off the lobby.

“Every Sofitel exudes a refined and understated sense of modern luxury, and this grand old dame is no exception,” says general manager Philip Logan. “As one of Sydney’s most history-laden hotels, Sofitel Sydney Wentworth resonates in the hearts of so many, giving her a stylish makeover is only fitting, to keep her status as an ambassador of modern French style.”
