Amazing two night stay at the Fullerton Hotel Sydney.
Housed in the former General Post Office, the hotel is steeped in history. The former GPO was constructed in phases. Beginning in 1866, the first phase opened in 1874. It was the first major building to open in Sydney. In 1891, the clock tower rang its bells for the first time. The Grand Staircase is stunning. Heritage Tours guide visitors through the historic icon.
Today, you can stay in the historic GPO or the added modern tower. Our upper room suites were so quiet and comfortable.
Definitely add breakfast to your reservation. So nice to sit in the elevated lobby overlooking the courtyard of the historic General Post Office. The hot entrees, cook to order omelettes or eggs, salad bar, cheese bar, fruits and pastries were so delicious. The spring rolls were so hot and tasty. Chocolate croissants filled with chocolate creme were divine. The onion twists were addictive. Love the cooked veggies, hashbrowns and fresh pineapple.
Ask for fresh orange or pineapple juice, a latte, cappuccino or hot cocoa. Love the TWG selection of teas. Earl Grey. English breakfast. Waterfruit green tea. Original sencha. Grand jasmine. So many choices.
Location is so convenient. Easy to catch the Hop On Hop Off bus, walk to the park, visit the Sydney Tower, or explore the stunning Queen Victoria Arcade. So many shopping malls close by as well.
Sudeep and Milos were very helpful with my parents' electronics when they had challenges that I could not address. Thanks for the industrial strength adapter for their electronics.
Thanks also for the Happy Anniversary welcome card and cake to help my parents celebrate a very special 60th anniversary. Such a sweet surprise!
Highly recommend this Sydney landmark for an unforgettable stay in the heart of the city.
