Picture perfect. Sydney is arguably one of the world’s prettiest cities. And it just so happens to be full of Instagrammable venues, waiting for you to snap, tag and post to your feed. From bars that count the Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge as its neighbours, to restaurants with sweeping views of the Blue Mountains, we check out our favourite Instagrammable venues in Sydney.
Cruise Bar
Sydney Opera House to one side, Harbour Bridge to the other, Cruise Bar is one of Sydney’s most Instagrammable venues. The view from this bohemian-chic bar in The Rocks is like something a director would use in a film when they really want to let you know you’re in Sydney.
The perfect shot
Sunset in autumn (that golden hour, crispy season light), cocktail in hand.
Watsons Bay Boutique Hotel
With its own private jetty, beach, city views and stunning interiors, Watsons Bay Boutique Hotel is ready for its close-up. With a Hamptons-in-summer vibe, each space at this boutique hotel has its selling points. It’s the kind of place that *makes* you want to dress up, strike a pose, and post. Filter optional.
The perfect shot
Blue skies, on the Top Deck, floppy hats and big sunnies aplenty.

Royal Botanic Gardens Sydney
A Sydney icon, the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney is one of the city’s loveliest and most lush spots. You can take a leisurely stroll through the gardens, stopping to snap all sorts of flowery backdrops – perfect for a romantic picnic scene.
The perfect shot
In front of the famous Maiden’s Fig Tree.
Angel Hotel
Hidden away between Pitt and George Street, Angel Hotel is a stunning pocket of Sydney made to be photographed. The building's 19th-century Victorian gothic exterior and glittering theatre lights make it one of the city's most Instagrammable venues, and with its hidden garden bar, you can find yourself in an oasis away from the hustle and bustle of city life.
The perfect shot
The bartenders here are seriously talented. So, your best bet is to share the results of their hard work with the world. Our recommendation? A glass of champagne and some creative angles. Because according to Angel Hotel, there's always something to celebrate!
The Calyx
On the fringe of The Royal Botanic Gardens in Sydney is The Calyx. Surrounded by lush greenery and blooming pops of colour, The Calyx is the perfect blend of indoor and outdoor. Its surrounding grounds and striking architecture make for an iconic backdrop for photos any time of the year.
The perfect shot
As the sun passes overhead, the pillars surrounding the forecourt of The Calyx casts a bold pattern of shadow, making for a particularly great opportunity for some black and white photography.
Pier One Sydney Harbour
Located literally on Darling Harbour, water lapping underneath, you can imagine the types of shots you can get from this extremely Instagrammable venue. From the hotel bar, to the neighbouring deck, and even the conference spaces, this venue makes the most of its prime location. Towering above this beautiful venue is one of the world’s most iconic structures – the magnificent Sydney Harbour Bridge.
The perfect shot
If you’re situated in the northern or eastern end of this venue, you’re destined to get a thoroughly Instagrammable shot. If you can, try and book a space or room for New Year’s Eve and watch the Bridge burst with fiery colour.
The Lookout Echo Point
The Blue Mountains are a true natural marvel of the Australian landscape. The crew behind the Lookout Echo Point know this full well. From the dining room or balcony you can see some sweeping and vertiginous views of the Blue Mountains and dense national parkland. Keep your eyes peeled for some friendly local wildlife. Be sure to add this to your Sydney itinerary. It's hard not to get the camera out along the way and capture some of the most Instagrammable places in Sydney.
The perfect shot
The balcony at The Lookout Echo Point is unbeatable for the perfect Instagram post. And if you’re hosting a breakfast event, try to get in early and watch/snap the sunrise. Double-taps guaranteed.
