The story

The 1851 Treasury Building at Circular Quay

InterContinental Sydney is set within the former 1851 Treasury Building, a heritage-listed landmark that blends old world sophistication with modern flair. It sits in the heart of Circular Quay, where the hotel looks across to the Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge, and the Sydney Royal Botanic Gardens are just steps away for wedding photographs. The hotel keeps 509 guest rooms, including 28 luxury suites, and the bridal party can prepare with views of the Opera House from their suite. A Vera Wang bridal boutique on the ground floor means the dress can be chosen without leaving the building.

Each historic wedding space has its own character. On Level Two the Boronia Ballroom is the largest, with lavish art deco design, chandeliers, a full-sized dancefloor, a stage for speeches or a live band, and ceiling rigging points for floral installations. On Level One the Hermitage Room is entered through a private sandstone heritage entrance on Macquarie Street, with a marble-floored foyer that can become a dancefloor, a golden atrium and natural daylight. The Grevillea Room offers cascading archways and a private lobby entrance, while Aster, on Level 32, adds harbour views. Bespoke packages and a dedicated events team handle the detail.
