Capella Sydney Tour
Experience the beauty of Capella Sydney with a guided exploration of its heritage and architecture. Opened in 2023, the luxury hotel is housed in the former Department of Education building, designed in the early 1900s by architect George McRae, who designed a series of iconic landmarks including Sydney Town Hall, the Queen Victoria Building and Taronga Zoo.
For generations, the Department of Education building stood quietly, its golden sandstone facade forming an unassuming backdrop to the city. Balancing storied architectural features with a contemporary design aesthetic, Capella Sydney celebrates the Australian panorama through its history, architecture and interiors.
This tour explores the transformed spaces within Capella Sydney, showcasing the curated artwork, intriguing objets d’art and stories of the site’s unique heritage.
