“Capella Sydney inhabits a meticulously restored heritage building in the CBD, now reimagined as a luxury hotel, featuring Australian art and an exceptional wellness area. I was impressed by the high staff-to-guest ratio, the curated experiences, and the dining options, and by the way the design balances historical charm with contemporary aesthetics.
