"The 150-year-old General Post Office building once connected Sydney to the rest of the world — not only via mail but also via phone — when it became home to the first public telephone exchange in 1882. As The Fullerton Hotel, the historic building now connects travelers to the city thanks to its prime location, just a short walk from must-visit landmarks such as Darling Harbour and the Sydney Opera House. Rooms sit across the Italian Renaissance-inspired General Post Office and the sky-high modern wing, dressed in a classic contemporary style that feels intentionally pared back: when you’re this high up all focus is on the spectacular view. On the first floor dine on modern Australian and South-East Asian dishes in restaurant The Place, surrounded by original arched windows, grand columns and intricate stonework, or elegantly loaf in The Bar over afternoon tea and evening cocktails." - Tablet Hotels
