Sitting smack bang in the middle of Sydney is the revered, much-loved and oft-recommended institution that is The Grand Hotel Sydney. Sprawling over three floors, it boasts a pub, a bottle shop, and a bar, as well as the requisite old-school pub accommodation that one would expect from such a venerable old building.
The ground floor of the Grand is mostly taken up with an oak-panelled pub, and partly with a bottle shop. Within the second floor of the Grand Hotel resides 30 Knots, a modern pub with a maritime feel serving stylish modern pub food, along with a selection of impressive craft beers.
One level higher still is the Pool Room, a sun-filled room boasting old-world charm that entertains 60 guests comfortably. Both 30 Knots and the Pool Room are available for exclusive hire. While the ground floor is well-loved, it is unavailable for hire. The two upper levels, however, are endlessly popular function venues, for everything from bucks parties and birthdays, business functions and cocktail parties.
