2025 Bucket List Stay: QT Sydney
+1 
QT Sydney is renowned for its eclectic and bold interior design, housed within a historic building that blends art deco style with theatrical flair. Situated next to the iconic State Theatre and the former Gowings department store, the boutique hotel is a visual feast, featuring artwork-lined elevators and cutting-edge video art that transport guests into a world where history meets modernity.
A must-try experience at QT Sydney is the QTea High Tea by Adriano Zumbo, an indulgent affair featuring endless tea, sumptuous sweets and savory bites, with an optional but highly recommended Perrier-Jouët pairing. The hotel’s legendary minibars, which include a QT Espresso Martini Kit, add a playful touch to the stay. Just steps away, the State Theatre—nicknamed the “Palace of Dreams”—stands as a testament to the past, having opened in 1929 and now serving as a vibrant venue for the arts, weddings, and special events.
