The Ace Hotel on Wentworth Avenue in Sydney, Australia, celebrates the city’s historic grit and its contemporary dynamism. The 264-room hotel will occupy the renovated Tyne House, a Chicago-style brick Federation warehouse built in 1915, as well as a 10-storey tower that steps back from the original facade, bringing the total building height to 18 storeys. Renovation of the Tyne House elevation will aesthetically align it with the tower’s expressed charcoal and terracotta frame. The architecture also references the nearby brick and steel warehouses that are part of the surrounding neighbourhood. Inside, the hotel will offer facilities calibrated to create memorable visits. A ground-floor lobby bar will open up to a smaller laneway on the site, maximising the benefits of an intimate street scale. Other amenities will include a restaurant, conference facilities, a gymnasium and a rooftop bar and restaurant. This will be the first Ace Hotel in Australia.
