About Simpsons of Potts Point:
The charm and sophistication of European cities is reflected in this
gracious and elegant small hotel. In Sydney, Simpsons of Potts Point is a
luxurious, historic hotel offering a perfect example of sympathetically
restored architectural heritage combined with contemporary comfort.
Built as the family residence of John Lane Mullins, a member of the New
South Wales Colonial Parliament, Simpsons was designed in 1892 by leading
Sydney architect, John Bede Barlow.
The glory of this house has been recaptured in the imaginative
restoration which provides spacious rooms, grand halls and stained glass
windows.
A unique range of ‘arts and crafts’ decorations of the period
enhances the rooms. Exquisite prints from the hand of the renowned
Australian artist Ellis Rowan, and friezes of Australian flora have been
drawn from the collections of Sydney’s premier museum, the Powerhouse.

Simpsons of Potts Point is very centrally located on a leafy tree lined
street in Potts Point, the closest suburb east of the city.
