Harbour View Hotel

Facilities:

Cuisine Types:

The Harbour View Hotel is situated on the corner of Cumberland Street and Lower Fort Street in The Rocks. You can also access the hotel from streets to the western side of the Bridge. It is the closest hotel to the Harbour Bridge. Indeed, the original Harbour View Hotel, built around 1843 was demolished to make way for this world icon. It was originally situated near where the granite pylons now stand.

The new Harbour View Hotel is on land set aside around 1915 for religious purposes. The owners at the time, brewers Tooth & Company would not move from the area and some arrangements took place between church, brewer and State Government to obtain the site. Architect's drawings dated 1921 exist and construction would have started soon after. Local residents reveal that the main patrons in the early days were bridge construction workers and tunnellers working on the underground railway.
