Ever wish you could step off the busy streets and land somewhere a little higher, a little sunnier, with a cocktail in hand? The Rooftop at The Old Clare Hotel is as close as it gets. Welcome to Sydney’s best rooftop bar.
More than a perch above the city, The Rooftop is a place to pause, gain perspective, and leave the everyday behind. High above the skyline, urban life meets a touch of nature, creating the perfect backdrop to relax and soak it all in. Under a glass canopy, enjoy cocktails at the bar all year round, dig into Cali-Mexican-inspired bites, or grab a cushion and lounge poolside in the sunshine.
Feeling like sharing the rooftop magic? The Rooftop is also a standout venue for private events, whether celebrating with friends, entertaining clients, or hosting a gathering above Sydney you won’t forget. For more details, or if you just want to hear more of our sweet rooftop serenade, get in touch with our events team or give us a call.
Please note: Use of the rooftop pool is reserved for hotel guests only. Public guests are welcome to enjoy the poolside seating and ambience.
