The Bar/Lounge at QT Sydney

"Situated in the heart of town and perched above two iconic buildings - the State Theatre and the Gowings Building - this new boutique hotel has the location, the buzz and even the trendy restaurant, Gowings Bar and Grill"

"A luxurious spa; an upscale restaurant called Gowlings Bar and Grill, a casual (and very groovy) café, and the Gilt Lounge cocktail bar complete the picture"

"There's also a luxurious spa plus a bar and grill operated by one of the city's most fashionable restaurateurs"

"There's also the surreally styled Parlour Lane Roasters for coffee and the Gilt Lounge for convivial cocktails"

"There’s also a small spa offering personalized healing treatments and a charming vintage-style barber shop next door, but the majority of stylish locals flock to the Gowings Bar & Grill, a European-style brasserie serving dishes such as whole roasted quail stuffed with sage, and the adjacent Gilt Lounge for inventive cocktails"
