History
5 dates, written by Grand Hotels of the World from the sources below.
Orient-Express Hotels makes its Australian debut with the Observatory Hotel, a low-rise Georgian-style stone building in the old fishing village of Millers Point.
Langham Hospitality Group buys the hotel, its second Australian property after Melbourne, and rebrands it The Langham, Sydney.
The hotel has 96 rooms, the Galileo restaurant decorated with Peter Arno cartoons and the Globe Bar.
A four-month, $30 million makeover by GA Design of London removes pillars from the Art Deco-style lobby to open up harbour views.
Kent Street Kitchen and Chuan Spa open; the star-ceilinged pool is the only major feature kept from the old hotel.
