Designed by Michael Dysart & Partners with interiors by Joseph Pang Design Consultants, and built in 1982 on the site of a colonial jail overlooking Sydney Cove, where Captain Arthur Phillip landed in 1788. Opened in October 1982 as The Regent, it was managed by Four Seasons from 1992 and renamed Four Seasons Hotel Sydney in 2002. A grand staircase links the atrium lobby to the second and third floors.
