InterContinental Sydney has held a special place in the city since opening in September 1985.

Following an $AU30 million enhancement, this Sydney icon presents stylish guest rooms, a stunning driveway and arrivals area, a chic lounge bar and dining room and a spectacular rooftop executive lounge.

Club InterContinental Lounge on level 32 opens onto an outdoor timber walkway and deck boasting uninterrupted views from the Harbour Bridge to the Pacific. Inside there is seating for 100 guests, an entertainment room, DVD library and shower facilities for early arrivals.

Spacious guest rooms and suites offer views of Sydney Harbour, The Royal Botanical Gardens, Circular Quay and the city skyline.

Set beneath the grand arches of the original façade of the hotel, Etch specialises in casual European cuisine. The elegant dining room featuring vintage style wallpapers and stylised artworks is a comfortable backdrop for the pared back food of award-winning chef Justin North. Seasonal menus and a commitment to support local producers mean that only the very best of local produce is served at Etch. The restaurant can cater to any size function in any of the three private dining rooms through to exclusive use of the entire restaurant and bar.

For meetings, events or banquets, 13 rooms offer natural light and wireless high speed internet access.
