Capella made its debut in Australia in March, opening a new property within Sydney’s former Department of Education building. Built in the 1900s by New South Wales government architect George McRae, the golden sandstone property underwent a seven-year restoration before welcoming its first guests. We love the look of the Capella Suite — the largest and most extravagant of the hotel’s 192 rooms, spanning over 2,500 sq ft. Situated up on the ninth floor, the suite overlooks the historic Sandstone Precinct and Royal Botanic Gardens. The bedroom is especially noteworthy: Expect dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows and a super king-size bed topped with custom Italian Frette linens. There’s also a cozy living room complete with a fireplace and marble bar — the perfect spot for entertaining.
