The Langham, Sydney is now reopened after it closed its famous doors in July, 2014 to undertake a $30 million grand transformation. The aim was to re-deliver this landmark hotel as one of Sydney’s most exclusive harbourside addresses.
Design firm GA Design has worked direct from London with luxury building experts, ICMG and The Langham Executive Team, to ensure every construction accent is enthralled in perfection.
“GA’s vision, in conjunction with The Langham global brand power, is set to create a new addition to the Australian luxury sector that will transcend the market” said The Langham, Sydney General Manager, Sonia Lefevre.
Langham Hospitality Group purchased The Langham, Sydney [previously The Observatory Hotel] in 2012 from Orient Express and rebranded in the same year with great success. The executive team allocated two years to carefully appraise the Sydney space before confirming redevelopment plans in 2014.
“No expense has been spared in creating this elegant harbourside retreat for our guests.
“This is a truly international product, designed to offer Sydney an asset that doesn’t currently exist in terms of opulence, elegance and luxury” said Lefevre.
This project will see internationally designed spaces paired with eclectic interior furnishings and every corner of this magnificent hotel has been given a grand treatment. Each light switch, fitting, fixture, chandelier, every piece of marble has been replaced with a more superior product.
Hand curated art by Sotheby’s, Afternoon Tea with Wedgwood, an immersive fine dining concept at Sydney’s newest offering, Kent Street Kitchen, an exclusive new day spa, five brand-new, lavish event spaces for the glitterati of the city to enjoy, plus Sydney’s largest lead-in guestrooms with Langham’s signature terraces and balconies, is just a taste of the modern luxury to follow.
“The Langham, Sydney hasn’t just undergone a refurbishment. This is a grand transformation,” said Lefevre.
