Hotel Harry

Surry Hills & Darlinghurst


This breezy, humorous, faux-Spanish colonial fitout of the former Macquarie Hotel doesn't take itself (or the Spanish language) too seriously. It's an attractive space, high-ceilinged and handsomely proportioned with some lovely original fittings. Food from burgers to tacos keeps punters happy, as does late opening. It's a good-time sort of a place.
