Ornate brick hotel façade glowing at dusk, with arched windows, bright storefronts, and bare branches crossing the sky.

Old stones with new stories to tell

Sydney started here, on the ridge where the sandstone was first cut. Harbour Rocks Hotel was born in 1887, where cobblestone meets water. Now it’s been reawakened, old stone shaped by considered design.

Step off Harrington Street and feel five storeys of history under your feet. Brick and stone worn smooth, then reinvigorated with modern luxuries. Built on quiet comforts and a warm welcome, hospitality runs deep here.

Find your sanctuary in our Heritage Rooms and Harbour View King. Spaces worth lingering in, whether for a weekend away or a mid-week getaway.

Step outside and the pace changes. The Rocks unfold around you, laneways, sandstone and the harbour close at hand. Harbour Rocks Hotel is here, central yet secluded, an easy walk from the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Opera House and Circular Quay.

Stay a while and see where it takes you. Our story is still being written.

Eat & Drink

You won’t need to wander far to discover delicious food. Serving up Levantine flavours with a focus on seasonal fare, in an impressive all-sandstone interior, is Tayim. Cut through to Eric’s Bar & Garden Terrace via the laneway and unwind from a full day with their daily Happy Hour. Prefer to stay in? A selection of dishes is also available through in-room dining.

Fun fact: had Captain Phillip sailed past Port Jackson in 1788, it’s entirely possible that Australia would have been settled by the French.
