Establishment Hotel

With four bars (Establishment Bar, Gin Garden, Tank Stream Bar and Hemesphere) and two restaurants (Est. and Sushi E), you won’t ever have to leave the hotel so you can pop on those 5 inch heels without worrying! Of course, being in the centre of the CBD you won’t be short of other restaurants, bars, pubs and clubs either. The uber-cool  Establishment Hotel was designed for night owls but, with marble bathrooms, huge LCD televisions and ultra soft 100% cotton linen, you’ll long to return to your room at the end of the night.

Kirketon Hotel

An award-winning hotel that was once voted one of the coolest boutique hotels in the world by Conde Nast Traveller Magazine, the Kirketon oozes style and glamour. Each of its 40 rooms is decorated in a minimalist style, with luxurious soft furnishings, plasma televisions and funky chandeliers, and offers complimentary high-speed internet access. The small but very chic bar, Eau de Vie, boasts over 500 different spirits and was recently voted ‘Bar of the Year’ by Gourmet Traveller magazine.

Ravesi’s

A welcome addition to Bondi, Ravesi’s is mere steps from Australia’s most famous beach. Pick of the rooms is the huge deluxe split-level suite, which offers stunning views of the ocean from its fantastic wrap-around balcony. Having said that, Ravesi’s has made the most of its beachfront location by ensuring that all windows take in that glorious view. The open-air cocktail bar pulls in a smart crowd and is a great place to wind down at the end of a sun-kissed day.   

Medusa

With bold rooms splashed with bright colour in a historic building, the medusa perfectly mixes contemporary with traditional. Bright blue curved chaise lounge and scarlet walls provide a striking contrast to the original coving and cornicing and white wooden shutters. All rooms are incredibly spacious and come equipped with kitchenettes as well as thoughtful touches such as pure wool blankets, cotton bathrobes, Aveda toiletries, and Lindt chocolates.

Diamant

Everything has been thought of in this fabulous boutique hotel - huge plasma televisions, iPod docking stations, Xboxes, plush king-sized beds, gourmet minibars, and designer hair products in the bathrooms. The courtyard suite even has a sizable outdoor terrace with jaw-dropping city views. Order a room-service Bellini and take it out to the terrace as you watch the sun set over the city.
