Over 200 films. Twelve days. One very good reason to stay in the city a little longer.
Between screenings, gallery visits and late dinners, winter in Sydney starts to feel slower in the best way. Hotel Woolstore 1888 places you close to the Sydney Film Festival, with somewhere warm waiting at the end of the night.

Winter suits Sydney more than you’d think.
The city slows into theatre nights, harbour lights, film festivals and long weekends best enjoyed without rushing. Stay close to it all at Hotel Woolstore 1888, where heritage charm, cosy corners and evenings at Percy make winter in the city feel a little softer.

Before Hotel Woolstore became a stay, it was part of Sydney’s working history.
Once a humble wool storage facility, the building carried the weight of industry, movement, and trade through its walls.
Today, those same walls hold a different kind of story. One of rest, arrival, and time well spent in the city.

Mornings at Woolstore are built for the day ahead.
A hearty breakfast to start strong, a quiet space to reset, and everything you need before heading into meetings or exploring the city.
And if you book direct, a barista-made St Remio coffee is there to give your morning that extra lift, the kind that sets the tone for a focused, energised day.
Simple start. Better rhythm for the day.

Hospitality here isn’t just process. It’s people who genuinely care about how your stay feels, not just how it looks.

Everything feels closer when you stay here.
Darling Harbour is just a short walk from Hotel Woolstore, making it easy to step straight into the energy of the city without needing to plan it out.

Percy’s bar is built for the in-between moments.
A place for a pre-dinner spritz, a late-night Martini, or something unexpected from a menu that leans into both classic and contemporary pours.
Cocktails here aren’t just ordered. They’re chosen slowly, with time to enjoy what comes with them.

Crème Catalana, done the proper way.
Silky white chocolate custard, finished with a crisp caramelised sugar top that cracks just right with the spoon.
Made with care, served with intention, and best enjoyed the way it’s meant to be eaten.
Scrape the bowl. No hesitation.

Some gifts don’t need wrapping.
A night away at Hotel Woolstore is time made simple again. A slow morning, dinner just downstairs at Percy, and the city close enough to wander without effort.

A stay that feels like care, not occasion. Happy Mother's Day from Hotel Woolstore 1888 🤍
