Historic Sydney landmark the Morris Hotel will reopen next year after undergoing a three-year renovation.
The Virgil Dante Cizzio-designed hotel originally opened in 1929 on Pitt Street in the CBD, with the venue once again welcoming guests from late January.
The building has been meticulously restored and will debut with 82 rooms and a hotel bar.
Bar Morris will see 40 seats for patrons, who will enjoy cocktails in an Art Deco-inspired space that encompasses velvet and leather banquet and booth seating, a marble bar and tables and antique light fittings.
The menu will take cues from classic Italian dishes as well as seasonal produce, with the space opening for coffee and pastries in the morning before moving into cocktails, wine and share plates into the night.
It’s the latest Sydney project from Accor, which recently opened Porter House in the CBD.
More information and official opening date to come.
