Carved into the cliff under the iconic Story Bridge, this $100-million hideaway boasts amazing river views (especially from its rooftop pool and bar!), plus 166 stylish suites inspired by the artwork of Australian painter Vincent Fantauzzo. Sure to impress art-lovers, a collection of the acclaimed artist’s paintings and giclee prints are featured throughout the property. Gourmands will also be in their element with the fantastic Polpetta restaurant on the hotel’s ground floor serving delicious, authentic Italian cuisine – bellissimo!

Just moments from Insta-ready spots like Mr Percival’s, ARC Dining & Wine Bar and Greca Restaurant, The Fantauzzo is also the perfect base for a bridesmaids’ or groomsmen’s getaway, or romantic pre-wedding escape – Aperol Spritzes on the rooftop, anyone? Howard Smith Wharves’ gorgeous wedding venues are also just steps away. The ideal base for your wedding-night accommodation? We think so!
