This apartment is in a superb location: 12 minutes on the train from Sydney airport and the apartment is just across the road from Museum station; walking distance to CBD, central Sydney, the Opera House and Botanical Gardens, ferries, Surrey Hills, Oxford Street and to the White Rabbit Gallery near Central Station.
You can also walk to some of the best restaurants in the city such as Bentleys, Tatsuya, Quay and Bennelong.
Every evening we crossed the road and walked through Hyde Park, the Domain, past the NSW Art Gallery and down into the Botanical Gardens and Opera House, then along the Harbour with spectacular views of the Sydney Harbour bridge, to Mrs Macquarie’s Chair and back home. This walk is virtually all in beautiful parkland with only 2 roads to cross and takes in some of the best views of the city.
There is a heated, full olympic size, swimming pool just across the park near the cathedral with a gym and children’s area, open all year round. And a large outdoor pool further down by the ocean, open from spring.
There are two large supermarkets nearby and we loved walking through the park down to David Jones Food Hall in Market Street to eat in, or to take home the best Australian meat and seafood, wines, salads, deserts etc.
We walked everywhere and didn’t use any public transport during our 2 weeks in Sydney.
The apartment is just as it appears in the photos. And particularly well laid out, with the living area overlooking the park and the bedrooms out the back in the quietest part of the building.
We appreciated being able to check in at a very early hour to accommodate our early arrival from London, and also the slightly later check out.
