SYDNEY BEACHSIDE HOTEL GETS $30M MAKEOVER
ONE of Sydney’s most popular beachside hotels, the Manly Pacific M Gallery has unveiled a new look after two years of refurbishment. The standout hotel in one of Sydney’s favourite beachside suburbs has undergone a $30 million transformation.
Behind the refreshed façade are 213 redesigned rooms including The Infinity Residence and nine ocean-facing Coastal Suites. Hotel facilities include a rooftop pool and bar, a sundeck with an infrared sauna, 55 North - a new lobby bar - and a conference and events floor.
Good news for wine lovers: the mini bars in the suites comes with two Vintec wine fridges that boast the likes of Roederer Cristal Brut, as well as a premium range of whisky, spirits, coffee and chocolate from local providores.
For those wishing to entertain a few well-heeled friends, the Beach Butler can arrange for a mixologist to serve cocktails.
55 North bar is joined by Japanese fusion restaurant Tokyo Joe and a French-accented coastal menu from Bistro Manly. For more information see manlypacific.com.au.
