Paramount House Hotel

Sydney, Australia

Even before it opened in 2018, Paramount House Hotel was destined to become a hangout for trend-setters. It's in the former HQ of Paramount Picture Studios in Sydney’s Surry Hills – a charming inner-city neighbourhood that teems with laid-back cafes, boutiques and galleries, and has been voted one of the world's coolest neighbourhoods. Inside the three-storey 1930s brick corner warehouse, rooms come with quirky names like Nook, Sunny, Everyday and the Mack Daddy Suite. The style-savvy will have an affinity with the design: the terrazzo and copper bathrooms, the plant-lined balconies, the handcrafted Japanese bath, the vintage cassette player in the room. After a pilates session at the hotel’s Studio Mouvoir, you’ll find creatives hitting up Paramount Coffee Project for expertly made lattes from the easy-going staff or devouring avocado bagels at the rooftop A.P House all-day eatery. At night, hip Sydneysiders make a beeline for the subterranean Art Deco-inspired Golden Age Cinema, which hosts regular screenings of cult classics and new releases, best prefixed by cocktails in the adjacent David Lynch-inspired bar.
