FIND ULTIMO

Built in 1881, the hotel was renovated in 1996 to provide extra accommodation and a new Restaurant was opened. The hotel offers casual and relaxed accommodation with rooftop views of Ultimo and Pyrmont and only a stones throw from Sydney's beautiful Darling Harbour.

The area is steeped in the history of early settlement. The Harris family were the dominant landowners in the area for over 100 years and a nearby street bears their name.
