## About the hotel
Capella Sydney occupies a former Department of Education and Department of Agriculture building in the CBD, its two Edwardian Baroque sandstone halves dating to 1912 and 1927 and originally designed by architect George McRae. The 2023 conversion worked closely with Heritage NSW and the City of Sydney to adapt the building for a contemporary hotel while keeping its historic character intact. It earns its place through that heritage fabric, anchored by Aperture, a glass roofed atrium with a kinetic floral art installation at its centre.
