Sparkling chandeliers and a grand piano in the lobby set the scene for this opulent, heritage-listed 1883 building that's one of Australia’s most famous and self-consciously grand hotels. Adding to its English quaintness is high tea service and the historic Cricketers Bar, decked out in cricketing memorabilia.
