The award-winning, heritage-listed property, known as a hotel of the arts and located within walking distance to the harbour city’s major attractions, is continuing its reputation for personalised service and joie de vivre.
Sofitel Sydney Wentworth general manager, Sam Panetta said the entire Sofitel Sydney Wentworth team is thrilled and excited to be welcoming guests back into our beautiful hotel, especially at a time when Australia’s borders have reopened.
“We are incredibly proud of our teams and what they have achieved over the last 24-months, and we now have some wonderful changes to showcase as we welcome guests back and we can’t wait to have travellers re-discover our award-winning hotel,” he said.
