AMENITIES & SERVICES
|
A marble-floored lobby and grand staircase welcome guests into the Observatory’s colonial setting, reminiscent of a 19th-century mansion. Dark, heavy wood and rich fabrics are incorporated into the decor throughout public spaces and guestrooms, though facilities incorporate modern conveniences. The hotel's 20-meter indoor pool offers swimming with a celestial twist—the ceiling is dotted with fiber-optic lights, recreating the constellations of the Southern Hemisphere. An indoor fitness center offers computerized exercise equipment, and an outdoor tennis court is also available. An on-site day spa offers a wide choice of skin and body treatments, including wraps, mud masks, and massages. There's even a flotation tank for those who desire total, weightless escape. Business travelers have access to meeting facilities, including eight conference rooms. Services range from fax and photocopy to secretarial and translation services. Befitting its proximity to major Sydney businesses, guests can also enjoy complimentary limousine service on weekday mornings to anywhere within the central business district.
